FAMILY

WNT family

CATEGORY

protooncogene , signaling

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	extracellular
text	associated with the extracellular matrix

basic FUNCTION	invoved in oncogenesis and in several developmental process including regulation of cell fate and patterning during embyogenesis
	playing a key role in carcinogenesis through activation of WNT-beta-catenin-TCF signaling pathway
	ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors
	plays a crucial role in the development and/or regulation of the ectodermal derivatives
	key molecule for dentinogenesis and that it is associated with the cell-matrix interactions regulating odontoblast differentiation (Yamashiro 2007)
	WNT6, WNT10A and WNT10B inhibit adipogenesis and stimulate osteoblastogenesis through a CTNNB1-dependent mechanism
	may induce kidney fibrosis and associate with kidney dysfunction in acute interstitial nephritis (AIN)
	acts as an oncofetal factor that is highly expressed and may promote proper development of the esophagus
