Finally, recent research has indicated that other human diseases, such as the commonest form of skin cancer, basal cell carcinoma, are caused by mutations in genes involved in the Sonic hedgehog signalling pathway. The Patched (Ptc) gene encodes a Sonic hedgehog receptor [92,93] and a tumor suppressor protein that is defective in basal cell nevus syndrome [94].

Later on, Waldmann s group described a novel highly enantioselective method for the synthesis of an iridoid-inspired compound collection by the kinetic resolution of racemic 2//-pyran-3(6//)-one derivatives by means of an asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition with azomethine ylides using this catalytic system (Scheme 15) [27]. The desired products were formed efficiently with high stereoselectivity and led to the discovery of a new class of inhibitors of the Wnt and hedgehog signaling pathways.
