Interaction of viral oncogenic proteins with the Wnt signaling pathway
It is estimated that up to 20% of all types of human cancers worldwide are attributed to viruses. The genome of oncogenic viruses carries genes that have protein products that act as oncoproteins in cell proliferation and transformation. The modulation of cell cycle control mechanisms, cellular regulatory and signaling pathways by oncogenic viruses, plays an important role in viral carcinogenes...
متن کاملThe Canonical Wnt Signaling (Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway): A Potential Target for Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Precise regulation of signal transduction pathways is crucial for normal animal development and for maintaining cellular and tissue homeostasis in adults. The Wnt/Frizzled-mediated signaling includes canonical and non-canonical signal transduction pathways. Upregulation or downregulation of the canonical Wnt-signaling (or the Wnt/β-Catenin signal transduction) leads to a variety of human diseas...
متن کاملProstaglandins and the initiation of blastocyst implantation and decidualization.
The process of blastocyst implantation in mammals is remarkably variable, especially in the extent of trophoblast invasion of the endometrium. In most species studied, the earliest macroscopically identifiable sign of blastocyst implantation is an increase in endometrial vascular permeability in areas adjacent to the blastocysts. This is followed in species with invasive implantation by decidua...
متن کاملUterine Wnt -catenin signaling is required for implantation
Successful implantation relies on precisely orchestrated and reciprocal signaling between the implanting blastocyst and the receptive uterus. We have examined the role of the Wnt -catenin signaling pathway during the process of implantation and demonstrate that this pathway is activated during two distinct stages. Wnt -catenin signaling is first transiently activated in circular smooth muscle f...
متن کاملTGFβ superfamily signaling and uterine decidualization
Decidualization is an intricate biological process where extensive morphological, functional, and genetic changes take place in endometrial stromal cells to support the development of an implanting blastocyst. Deficiencies in decidualization are associated with pregnancy complications and reproductive diseases. Decidualization is coordinately regulated by steroid hormones, growth factors, and m...
