TMEM79/MATTRIN defines a pathway for Frizzled regulation and is required for Xenopus embryogenesis

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Wnt signaling through the Frizzled (FZD) family of serpentine receptors is essential for embryogenesis and homeostasis, and stringent control of the FZD protein level is critical for stem cell regulation.

The distribution of Dishevelled in convergently extending mesoderm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Convergent extension (CE) is a conserved morphogenetic movement that drives axial lengthening of the primary body axis and depends on the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway.

Wnt Receptor Frizzled-4 as a Marker for Isolation of Enteric Neural Progenitors in Human Children

open access: yesCells, 2019
Identification and isolation of neural progenitor cells from the human enteric nervous system (ENS) is currently hampered by the lack of reliable, specific markers.

Wnt Signaling in Neural Crest Ontogenesis and Oncogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Neural crest (NC) cells are a temporary population of multipotent stem cells that generate a diverse array of cell types, including craniofacial bone and cartilage, smooth muscle cells, melanocytes, and peripheral neurons and glia during embryonic ...

Wnt-3a Induces Cytokine Release in Human Mast Cells

open access: yesCells, 2019
Mast cells are well known for their detrimental effects in allergies and asthma, and Wnt signaling has recently been implicated in asthma and other airway diseases. However, it is not known if or how Wnts affect human mast cells.

Hypoxia in the Initiation and Progression of Neuroblastoma Tumours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Neuroblastoma is the most frequent extracranial solid tumour in children, causing 10% of all paediatric oncology deaths. It arises in the embryonic neural crest due to an uncontrolled behaviour of sympathetic nervous system progenitors, giving rise to ...

Signaling of human frizzled receptors to the mating pathway in yeast. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
Frizzled receptors have seven membrane-spanning helices and are considered as atypical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). The mating response of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is mediated by a GPCR signaling system and this model organism has been ...

Molecular Genetics of Intracranial Meningiomas with Emphasis on Canonical Wnt Signalling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Research over the last decade recognized the importance of novel molecular pathways in pathogenesis of intracranial meningiomas. In this review, we focus on human brain tumours meningiomas and the involvement of Wnt signalling pathway genes and proteins ...

A Novel Frizzled-Based Screening Tool Identifies Genetic Modifiers of Planar Cell Polarity in Drosophila Wings

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Most mutant alleles in the Fz-PCP pathway genes were discovered in classic Drosophila screens looking for recessive loss-of-function (LOF) mutations. Nonetheless, although Fz-PCP signaling is sensitive to increased doses of PCP gene products, not many ...
