Nature, : —7. Nat Cell Biol, 4 7 : E—3. Wnt signaling resources. All interactive pathways. What to expect from our Wnt pathway poster? The planar cell polarity pathway In the planar cell polarity pathway, Wnt signaling through Frizzled receptors mediates asymmetric cytoskeletal organization and the polarization of cells by inducing modifications to the actin cytoskeleton.

Antagonists of Wnt signaling Wnt antagonists can be divided into two functional classes: the secreted Frizzled related proteins sFRP class and the Dickkopf Dkk class 2. References 1. Current approaches to elucidate the mechanisms of catenin regulation include attempts to determine the structure of the degradation complex. Mutations in either of these genes result in wingless-like phenotypes in Drosophila , and both genes promote Wnt signaling in mammalian cell culture experiments The Wnt pathway has numerous transcriptional endpoints.

The large majority of these is cell type specific, i. This specificity is commonly seen in developmental signaling pathways, and reflects the fundamental mechanism of gene control by extracellular signals: the cell rather than the signal determines the nature of the response. But in addition to the cell type specific genes, Wnt signaling also controls genes that are more widely induced.

Given the diverse phenotypes produced by Wnt knock-outs in mice, it is not surprising that loss of Wnts in humans has dire consequences as well.

Recently, Tetra-amelia, a rare human genetic disorder characterized by absence of limbs, has been proposed to result from WNT3 loss of function mutations In adults, mis-regulation of the Wnt pathway also leads to a variety of abnormalities and disease.

An LRP mutation has been identified that causes increased bone density at defined locations such as the jaw and palate 33 , The mutation is a single amino-acid substitution that makes LRP5 insensitive to Dkk-mediated Wnt pathway inhibition, indicating that the phenotype results from over-active Wnt signaling in the bone In a different study, mutations in LRP5 were correlated with decreased bone mass In this case, frame shift and missense mutations were thought to create loss-of-function LRP5 mutations.

These data indicate that Wnt signaling mediated by LRP5 is required for maintenance of normal bone density. Mutations that promote constitutive activation of the Wnt signaling pathway lead to cancer. The best-known example is Familial Adenomatous Polyposis FAP , an autosomal, dominantly inherited disease in which patients display polyps in the colon and rectum. This disease is caused most frequently by truncations in APC 36 , 37 that promote aberrant activation of the Wnt pathway leading to adenomatous lesions due to increased cell proliferation.

Loss-of-function mutations in Axin have been found in hepatocellular carcinomas In the colon, loss of TCF4 or Dkk over-expression promotes loss of stem cells in the colon crypt, indicating that Wnt signaling is required for maintenance of the stem cell compartment 40 , 41 , Wnt signaling may therefore be a fundamental regulator of stem cell choices to proliferate or self-renew. Wnt proteins are lipid-modified and can act as stem cell growth factors.
