Biology Open, 2021 Wnt signalling is a core pathway involved in a wide range of developmental processes throughout the metazoa. In vitro studies have suggested that the small GTP binding protein Arf6 regulates upstream steps of Wnt transduction, by promoting the ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Model Reduction on the Wnt Pathway Leads to Biological Adaptation [PDF]
, 2017 Complex systems are an unavoidable problem in the field of biology. One of the ways that scientists have tried to overcome this problem is by building mathematical models—manageable representations designed to look at specific physical phenomena. The Wnt

Stimulation of epidermal hyperplasia and tumorigenesis by resident p16INK4a-expressing cells
Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020 p16INK4a (CDKN2A) is a central tumor-suppressor and activator of senescence. We recently found that prolonged expression of p16INK4a in epidermal cells induces hyperplasia and dysplasia through Wnt-mediated stimulation of neighboring keratinocytes.

Notch signaling augments the canonical Wnt pathway to specify the size of the otic placode [PDF]
, 2008 The inner ear derives from a patch of ectoderm defined by expression of the transcription factor Pax2. We recently showed that this Pax2^+ ectoderm gives rise not only to the otic placode but also to the surrounding cranial epidermis, and that Wnt ...

High-Throughput Drug Screening Identifies a Potent Wnt Inhibitor that Promotes Airway Basal Stem Cell Homeostasis. [PDF]
, 2020 Mechanisms underpinning airway epithelial homeostatic maintenance and ways to prevent its dysregulation remain elusive. Herein, we identify that β-catenin phosphorylated at Y489 (p-β-cateninY489) emerges during human squamous lung cancer progression ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...
