Signal integration in TGF-β, WNT, and Hippo pathways
Complete sequences of animal genomes have revealed a remarkably small and conserved toolbox of signalling pathways, such as TGF-β and WNT that account for all biological diversity. This raises the question as to how such a limited set of cues elaborates so many diverse cell fates and behaviours. It is now clear that components of signalling pathways are physically assembled into higher order ne...
متن کاملIntersection of Hippo/YAP and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways.
Traditionally, signaling pathways have been perceived to act in an autonomous manner to regulate tissue morphology, size, differentiation, and development. Recent evidence suggests that these pathways often intersect and regulate one another to elicit an appropriate response to a complex set of stimuli. Two pathways known to be important for development, growth, and homeostasis are the Wnt/β-ca...
متن کاملSignal Transduction Pathways of EMT Induced by TGF-β, SHH, and WNT and Their Crosstalks.
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key step in development, wound healing, and cancer development. It involves cooperation of signaling pathways, such as transformation growth factor-β (TGF-β), Sonic Hedgehog (SHH), and WNT pathways. These signaling pathways crosstalk to each other and converge to key transcription factors (e.g., SNAIL1) to initialize and maintain the process of EM...
متن کاملMutual regulation of the Hippo/Wnt/LPA/TGF-β signaling pathways and their roles in glaucoma (Review)
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide and there is no effective treatment thus far. The trabecular meshwork has been identified as the major pathological area involved. Certain signaling pathways in the trabecular meshwork, including the Wnt, lysophosphatidic acid and transforming growth factor‑β pathways, have been identified as novel therapeutic targets in glaucoma...
متن کاملIdentification, mechanism of action, and antitumor activity of a small molecule inhibitor of hippo, TGF-β, and Wnt signaling pathways.
Embryonic signaling pathways, in particular those mediated by Wnt and TGF-β, are known to play key roles in tumor progression through the induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Their simultaneous targeting could therefore represent a desirable anticancer strategy. On the basis of recent findings that both Wnt and TGF-β-associated pathways are regulated by Hippo signaling in mamma...
