Molecular Alterations and Putative Therapeutic Targeting of Planar Cell Polarity Proteins in Breast Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2023
Background: Treatment and outcomes of breast cancer, one of the most prevalent female cancers, have improved in recent decades. However, metastatic breast cancer remains incurable in most cases, and new therapies are needed to ameliorate prognosis ...

PCP and Wnt pathway components act in parallel during zebrafish mechanosensory hair cell orientation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Planar cell polarity (PCP) regulates hair cell orientation in the zebrafish lateral line. Here, the authors show that mutating Wnt pathway genes (wnt11f1, fzd7a/b, and gpc4) causes concentric hair cell patterns not regulated by PCP, thus showing PCP/Wnt ...

Emerging roles of planar cell polarity proteins in glutamatergic synapse formation, maintenance and function in health and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, 2023
The local signaling mechanism which directly assembles and maintains glutamatergic synapses has not been well understood. Glutamatergic synapses are made of presynaptic and postsynaptic compartments with distinct sets of proteins.

Cell autonomous polarization by the planar cell polarity signaling pathway

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
As epithelial cells polarize in the tissue plane, the Planar Cell Polarity (PCP) signaling module segregates two distinct molecular subcomplexes to opposite sides of cells.

Rapid Disruption of Dishevelled Activity Uncovers an Intercellular Role in Maintenance of Prickle in Core Planar Polarity Protein Complexes

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Planar polarity, the coordinated polarization of cells in the plane of a tissue, is important for normal tissue development and function. Proteins of the core planar polarity pathway become asymmetrically localized at the junctions between cells

Structural and Functional Siderophore Remodeling by Enzymatic Delipidation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 39, 21 September 2026.
A surprising functional switch in bacterial siderophores was discovered through genome mining and the analysis of environmental and pathogenic Pandoraea species. Pandorachelin B, a lipocyclopeptide that promotes swarming motility, is cleaved by a specialized acylase, yielding a ring‐contracted, homodetic cyclopeptide, pandorachelin A, which exhibits ...

Requirement for Dlgh-1 in planar cell polarity and skeletogenesis during vertebrate development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The development of specialized organs is tightly linked to the regulation of cell growth, orientation, migration and adhesion during embryogenesis. In addition, the directed movements of cells and their orientation within the plane of a tissue, termed ...

Planar Cell Polarity: Coordinating Morphogenetic Cell Behaviors with Embryonic Polarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Planar cell polarization entails establishment of cellular asymmetries within the tissue plane. An evolutionarily conserved planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling system employs intra- and intercellular feedback interactions between its core components ...

Wnt-Frizzled planar cell polarity signaling in the regulation of cell motility

open access: yesCurrent Topics in Developmental Biology, 2022
The molecular complexes underlying planar cell polarity (PCP) were first identified in Drosophila through analysis of mutant phenotypes in the adult cuticle and the orientation of associated polarized protrusions such as wing hairs and sensory bristles ...

Distinct overlapping functions for Prickle1 and Prickle2 in the polarization of the airway epithelium

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling polarizes cells within the plane of an epithelium. In the airways, planar cell polarity signaling orients the directional beating of motile cilia required for effective mucociliary clearance.
