Secreted frizzled-related protein-1 improves postinfarction scar formation through a modulation of inflammatory response.
OBJECTIVE The inflammatory response after myocardial infarction plays a crucial role in the healing process. Lately, there is accumulating evidence that the Wnt/Frizzled pathway may play a distinct role in inflammation. We have shown that secreted frizzled-related protein-1 (sFRP-1) overexpression reduced postinfarction scar size, and we noticed a decrease in neutrophil infiltration in the isch...

Objective—The inflammatory response after myocardial infarction plays a crucial role in the healing process. Lately, there is accumulating evidence that the Wnt/Frizzled pathway may play a distinct role in inflammation. We have shown that sFRP-1 overexpression reduced postinfarction scar size, and we noticed a decrease in neutrophil infiltration in the ischemic tissue. We aimed to further eluci...
متن کاملInhibition of secreted frizzled-related protein 5 improves glucose metabolism.
Elucidating the role of secreted frizzled-related protein 5 (SFRP5) in metabolism and obesity has been complicated by contradictory findings when knockout mice were used to determine metabolic phenotypes. By overexpressing SFRP5 in obese, prediabetic mice we consistently observed elevated hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance, supporting SFRP5 as a negative regulator of glucose metabolism. Acco...
متن کاملFrzA, a secreted frizzled related protein, induced angiogenic response.
BACKGROUND The secreted frizzled related proteins (sFRP) are soluble proteins thought to interfere with the Wnt signaling. Our group previously demonstrated that one of these members, sFRP-1/FrzA, is strongly expressed during early phases of the vascularization process in embryonic vasculature and in the endothelium of arteries and capillaries in adults and modulated vascular cell proliferation...
متن کاملFritz: a secreted frizzled-related protein that inhibits Wnt activity
Signaling molecules of the Wnt gene family are involved in the regulation of dorso-ventral, segmental and tissue polarity in Xenopus and Drosophila embryos. Members of the frizzled gene family, such as Drosophila frizzled-2 and rat frizzled-1, have been shown encode Wnt binding activity and to engage intracellular signal transduction molecules known to be part of the Wnt signaling pathway. Here...
