Peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ suppresses Wnt/β-catenin signalling during adipogenesis
The Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway appears to operate to maintain the undifferentiated state of preadipocytes by inhibiting adipogenic gene expression. To define the mechanisms regulating suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signalling, we analysed the βcatenin expression in response to activation of transcription factors that regulate adipogenesis. The results show an extensive down-regulation of nu...
متن کاملMitotic and mitogenic Wnt signalling.
Canonical Wnt signalling plays an important role in development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer. At the cellular level, canonical Wnt signalling acts by regulating cell fate, cell growth, and cell proliferation. With regard to proliferation, there is increasing evidence for a complex interaction between canonical Wnt signalling and the cell cycle. Mitogenic Wnt signalling regulates cell prolife...
متن کاملWnt signalling: Antagonistic Dickkopfs
Dickkopf proteins are secreted antagonists of the Wnt cell signalling molecules, which have a novel mode of action. Dickkopf1 binds to the LRP5/6 Wnt co-receptor and prevents the formation of active Wnt--Frizzled--LRP5/6 receptor complexes, thus blocking the canonical Wnt--beta-catenin pathway.
متن کاملDrugging Wnt signalling in cancer.
Aberrant regulation of the Wnt signalling pathway has emerged as a prevalent theme in cancer biology. This chapter summarizes the research that provides a proof of concept for inhibiting Wnt signalling in cancer, the potential means by which this could be achieved, and some recent advances towards this goal. A brief discussion of molecular diagnostics and possible safety concerns is also provided.
متن کاملWnt signalling during limb development.
Wnts control a number of processes during limb development--from initiating outgrowth and controlling patterning, to regulating cell differentiation in a number of tissues. Interactions of Wnt signalling pathway components with those of other signalling pathways have revealed new mechanisms of modulating Wnt signalling, which may explain how different responses to Wnt signalling are elicited in...
