Persistent Wnt/β-catenin signaling determines dorsalization of the postnatal subventricular zone and neural Stem cell specification into oligodendrocytes and glutamatergic neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the postnatal and adult central nervous system (CNS), the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the forebrain is the main source of neural stem cells (NSCs) that generate olfactory neurons and oligodendrocytes (OLs), the myelinating cells of the CNS.

Primary Cilia Formation Does Not Rely on WNT/β-Catenin Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Primary cilia act as crucial regulators of embryo development and tissue homeostasis. They are instrumental for modulation of several signaling pathways, including Hedgehog, WNT, and TGF-β.

Fusion of the BCL9 HD2 domain to E1A increases the cytopathic effect of an oncolytic adenovirus that targets colon cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Swiss Cancer League, Swiss National Science Foundation and SNSF NCCR Molecular Oncology ProgrammeBackground: The Wnt signaling pathway is activated by mutations in the APC and beta-catenin genes in many types of human cancer.

A novel bidirectional positive feedback loop between Wnt/ -catenin and EGFR/ERK: role of context-specific signalling crosstalk in modulating epithelial tissue regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
By operating as both a subunit of the cadherin complex and a key component of Wnt signalling, β-catenin constitutes the lynchpin between cell:cell contact and transcriptional regulation of proliferation to co-ordinate epithelial tissue homeostasis and ...

Proinflammatory cytokines regulate cementogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament cells by Wnt/Ca2+ signaling pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Periodontal inflammation can inhibit cell differentiation of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), resulting in decreased bone/cementum regeneration ability.

The evolving roles of Wnt signaling in stem cell proliferation and differentiation, the development of human diseases, and therapeutic opportunities

open access: yesGenes and Diseases
The evolutionarily conserved Wnt signaling pathway plays a central role in development and adult tissue homeostasis across species. Wnt proteins are secreted, lipid-modified signaling molecules that activate the canonical (β-catenin dependent) and non ...

Wnt Signaling in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Biological Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesCells
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), characterized by significant morbidity and mortality rates, poses a substantial threat to human health. The expression of ligands and receptors within the classical and non-classical Wnt signaling pathways plays an ...

Human naive CD8 T cells down-regulate expression of the WNT pathway transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 and transcription factor 7 (T cell factor-1) following antigen encounter in vitro and in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) and transcription factor 7 (TCF7) (T cell factor-1 (TCF-1)) are downstream effectors of the WNT signaling pathway, which is a critical regulator of T cell development in the thymus.

SnapShot: Noncanonical Wnt Signaling Pathways

open access: yesCell, 2007
Noncanonical Wnt signaling is defined here as Wnt- or Fz-initiated signaling that is independent of β-catenin transcriptional function. Noncanonical Wnt pathways are diverse and in many cases less characterized/defined. They are grouped into several categories for clarity and simplicity.

Secreted antagonists of the Wnt signalling pathway [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2003
The extracellular antagonists of the Wnt signalling pathway can be divided into two broad classes. Both classes of molecule prevent ligand-receptor interactions, but by different mechanisms: members of the first class, which include the sFRP (secreted Frizzled-related protein) family, WIF (Wnt inhibitory factor)-1 and Cerberus, primarily bind to Wnt ...
