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

Differential expression of canonical and non‐canonical Wnt ligands in ameloblastoma [PDF]
J Oral Pathol Med (2012) 41: 332–339Background: Canonical and non‐canonical Wnt signaling pathways modulate diverse cellular processes during embryogenesis and post‐natally. Their deregulations have been implicated in cancer development and progression. Wnt signaling is essential for odontogenesis.

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

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

Sclerostin Binds to LRP5/6 and Antagonizes Canonical Wnt Signaling*
The loss of the SOST gene product sclerostin leads to sclerosteosis characterized by high bone mass. In this report, we found that sclerostin could antagonize canonical Wnt signaling in human embryonic kidney A293T cells and mouse osteoblastic MC3T3 ...

Canonical WNT Signalling Controls Hair Follicle Spacing [PDF]
Canonical WNT signals play an important role in hair follicle development. In addition to being crucial for epidermal appendage initiation, they control the interfollicular spacing pattern and contribute to the spatial orientation and largely parallel alignment of hair follicles.

Canonical Wnt pathway gene expression and their clinical correlation in oral squamous cell carcinoma
Aim: The aim of this study is to explore the prognostic significance and clinicopathological correlations of the Wnt pathway genes in a cohort of surgically treated patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients.

Wnt Signaling Regulates Multipolar-to-Bipolar Transition of Migrating Neurons in the Cerebral Cortex
The precise timing of pyramidal cell migration from the ventricular germinal zone to the cortical plate is essential for establishing cortical layers, and migration errors can lead to neurodevelopmental disorders underlying psychiatric and neurological ...
