Ciliobrevin A is a hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway inhibitor with median inhibitory concentration (IC50) less than 10 μM.

Ciliobrevin A (HPI-4) also prevents an increase in the FLAG-Gli2 full-length/repressor ratio upon Shh stimulation, but HPI-2 and HPI-3 have no significant effect. Ciliobrevin A decreases FLAG-Gli1 stability in these cells, revealing another mechanism by which this small molecule can inhibit Hh target gene expression, while neither HPI-2 or HPI-3 has any significant effect on FLAG-Gli1 levels. Ciliobrevin A increases ciliary levels of FLAG-Gli2 in a manner disproportionate to their effects on total FLAG-Gli2 levels. In addition, Shh-EGFPFLAG-Gli2 cells cultured with Ciliobrevin A have truncated primary cilia, and this cellular organelle is absent in a significant fraction of Ciliobrevin A-treated cells. Ciliobrevin A also perturbs primary cilia formation in the Shh-LIGHT2FLAG-Gli1 cells and promotes accumulation of FLAG-Gli1 at the distal tip of this organelle. Ciliobrevin A significantly inhibits the proliferation of these neuronal progenitors, as measured by histone H3 phosphorylation (pH3) levels, and reduces cellular levels of cyclin D1 protein and Gli1, Gli2, and N-Myc transcripts in the CGNPs. Ciliobrevin A can block the proliferation of SmoM2-expressing CGNPs and should be equally potent against CGNPs lacking Su(fu) function, whereas the Smo inhibitor Cyclopamine is ineffective against either oncogenic lesion[1].
