targeting both ROR1 and ROR2 may be a powerful approach to treating ovarian cancer
ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Disruption of mouse Ror2 leads to profound skeletal abnormalities with essentially all endochondrally derived bones foreshortened or misshapen
  • Ror2-deficient mice had cardiac septal defects and skeletal abnormalities, including shorter limbs, vertebrae, and facial structure, with a particular defect in their distal portions and died after birth
  • Ror1/Ror2 double-mutant mice showed skeletal abnormalities including a sternal defect and dysplasia of the symphysis of the pubic bone
