Reporter gene HEK 293 cells and WNT/Frizzled fusion proteins as tools to study WNT signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
WNT/Frizzled receptor (FZD) signaling pathways are pivotal for physiological and pathophysiological processes. In humans, the complexity of WNT/FZD signaling is based on 19 WNTs, 10 FZDs and at least two (co)receptors (LRP5/6) mediating supposably four ...

Non-Canonical Wnt Predominates in Activated Rat Hepatic Stellate Cells, Influencing HSC Survival and Paracrine Stimulation of Kupffer Cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The Wnt system is highly complex and is comprised of canonical and non-canonical pathways leading to the activation of gene expression. Our aim was to examine changes in the expression of Wnt ligands and regulators during hepatic stellate cell (HSC ...

Epigenetic repression of ROR2 has a Wnt-mediated, pro-tumourigenic role in colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2010
Background Wnt factors control cell differentiation through semi-independent molecular cascades known as the β-catenin-dependent (canonical) and -independent (non-canonical) Wnt signalling pathways.

Components of the canonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways are not mis-expressed in pituitary tumors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
IntroductionCanonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways are involved in the genesis of multiple tumors; however, their role in pituitary tumorigenesis is mostly unknown.ObjectiveThis study evaluated gene and protein expression of Wnt pathways in pituitary ...

Role of Wnt canonical pathway in hematological malignancies

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2010
Wnt canonical signaling pathway plays a diverse role in embryonic development and maintenance of organs and tissues in adults. It has been observed that Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of many carcinomas.

Role of Wnt Signaling in Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Neurogenesis persists during adulthood in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Signals provided by the local hippocampal microenvironment support neural stem cell proliferation, differentiation, and maturation of newborn neurons into functional dentate ...

Primary cilia are not required for normal canonical Wnt signaling in the mouse embryo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling in the mouse requires the microtubule-based organelle, the primary cilium. The primary cilium is assembled and maintained through the process of intraflagellar transport (IFT) and the response to Shh is blocked in mouse ...

Canonical Wnt Signaling Protects Hippocampal Neurons from Aβ Oligomers: Role of Non-Canonical Wnt-5a/Ca2+ in Mitochondrial Dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Alzheimer´s disease (AD) is the most common type of age-related dementia. The disease is characterized by a progressive loss of cognitive abilities, severe neurodegeneration, synaptic loss and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Augmenting endogenous wnt signaling improves skin wound healing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Wnt signaling is required for both the development and homeostasis of the skin, yet its contribution to skin wound repair remains controversial. By employing Axin2(LacZ/+) reporter mice we evaluated the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of Wnt ...

The planar cell polarity protein VANG-1/Vangl negatively regulates Wnt/β-catenin signaling through a Dvl dependent mechanism.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Van Gogh-like (Vangl) and Prickle (Pk) are core components of the non-canonical Wnt planar cell polarity pathway that controls epithelial polarity and cell migration.
