Forensic Toxicology and Poison Analysis
Q: In forensic toxicology, what is the term for the synergistic effect where the combined result of two drugs is greater than the sum of their individual effects?
Did You Know?
The Hedgehog (HH) pathway, particularly the Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) branch, is crucial for embryonic patterning. In adults, its inappropriate reactivation, most commonly due to inactivating mutations in PTCH1 or activating mutations in SMO, is the driver of nearly all basal cell carcinomas. Drugs like vismodegib and sonidegib are SMO inhibitors that block this aberrant signaling.
