Nuclear VANGL2 Inhibits Lactogenic Differentiation [PDF]
Planar cell polarity (PCP) proteins coordinate tissue morphogenesis by governing cell patterning and polarity. Asymmetrically localized on the plasma membrane of cells, transmembrane PCP proteins are trafficked by endocytosis, suggesting they may have ...

Vangl2 Promotes Hematopoietic Stem Cell Expansion [PDF]
Regulation of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal and differentiation is essential for their maintenance, and HSC polarity has been shown to play an important role in this regulation.

Molecular characterisation of endogenous Vangl2/Vangl1 heteromeric protein complexes.
BackgroundMutations in the Planar Cell Polarity (PCP) core gene Vangl2 cause the most severe neural tube defects (NTD) in mice and humans. Genetic studies show that the Vangl2 gene genetically interacts with a close homologue Vangl1. How precisely Vangl2

VANGL2 regulates luminal epithelial organization and cell turnover in the mammary gland [PDF]
\ua9 2019, The Author(s). The VANGL family of planar cell polarity proteins is implicated in breast cancer however its function in mammary gland biology is unknown. Here, we utilized a panel of Vang1 and Vangl2 mouse alleles to examine the requirement of

Investigating the function of VANGL2 in intestinal homeostasis & disease [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Van Gogh-Like 2 (VANGL2) is a scaffolding planar cell polarity protein involved in non-canonical Wnt signalling. It has been shown to have crucial roles in regulating epithelial development and homeostasis.

A vertebrate Vangl2 translational variant required for planar cell polarity
International audienceFirst described in the milkweed bug Oncopeltus fasciatus, planar cell polarity (PCP) is a developmental process essential for embryogenesis and development of polarized structures in Metazoans.

Pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome; lessons obtained from animal studies. [PDF]
Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It occurs in 1 in 100,000 people globally and is caused by several types of mutations of the TRPS1 gene. Since the first human patient was reported in 1966, typical and atypical pathologies, disease courses, and treatment case ...

Fold-and-fuse neurulation in zebrafish requires vangl2. [PDF]
Abstract Shaping of the future brain and spinal cord during neurulation is an essential component of early vertebrate development. In amniote embryos, primary neurulation occurs through a “fold-and-fuse” mechanism by which the edges of the neural plate fuse into the hollow neural tube.

Functional analysis of germline VANGL2 variants using rescue assays of vangl2 knockout zebrafish
Abstract Developmental studies have shown that the evolutionarily conserved Wnt Planar Cell Polarity (PCP) pathway is essential for the development of a diverse range of tissues and organs including the brain, spinal cord, heart and sensory organs, as well as establishment of the left-right body axis.
