Wnt-5a Promotes Neural Development and Differentiation by Regulating CDK5 via Ca2+/Calpain Pathway

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: The Wnt signaling pathway has essential functions in the central nervous system, where it regulates the major physiological functions of neurons, including development, differentiation, and plasticity.

MicroRNA-142-3p Negatively Regulates Canonical Wnt Signaling Pathway. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway plays essential roles in mammalian development and tissue homeostasis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of regulators involved in modulating this pathway.

Wnt signaling and osteoporosis [PDF]

open access: yesMaturitas, 2014
Major advances in understanding basic bone biology and the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for the development of osteoporosis, over the last 20 years, have dramatically altered the management of this disease. The purpose of this mini-review is to highlight the seminal role of Wnt signaling in bone homeostasis and disease and the ...

Frizzled Proteins are bona fide G Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Receptors of the Frizzled family initiate Wnt ligand-dependent signaling controlling multiple steps in organism development and highly conserved in evolution. Misactivation of the Wnt/Frizzled signaling is cancerogenic.

Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.

Distinctive Roles of Canonical and Noncanonical Wnt Signaling in Human Embryonic Cardiomyocyte Development

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2016
Wnt signaling is a key regulator of vertebrate heart development; however, specific roles for human cardiomyocyte development remain uncertain. Here we use human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to analyze systematically in human cardiomyocyte development ...

Functional Analysis of Wnt Signaling in the Early Sea Urchin Embryo Using mRNA Microinjection

open access: yes, 2008
The Wnt pathway is a highly conserved signal transduction pathway that plays many critical roles in early animal development. Recent studies have shown that this pathway plays a conserved role in the specification and patterning of the animal – vegetal ...

Alternative Wnt Signaling Activates YAP/TAZ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
SummaryThe transcriptional co-activators YAP and TAZ are key regulators of organ size and tissue homeostasis, and their dysregulation contributes to human cancer.

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Wnt-regulated lncRNA discovery enhanced by in vivo identification and CRISPRi functional validation

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2020
Background Wnt signaling is an evolutionarily conserved developmental pathway that is frequently hyperactivated in cancer. While multiple protein-coding genes regulated by Wnt signaling are known, the functional lncRNAs regulated by Wnt signaling have ...
