Marker
  • anti-WDR1 antibody could be a novel approach for serological screening of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and undifferentiated thyroid carcinoma (UTC), and could be an efficient and inexpensive biomarker
  • Therapy target
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Wdr1-deficient mice have impaired hemostasis due to defective inside-out integrin signaling in platelets
  • in adult mice, Wdr1 deletion resulted in similar but much milder phenotypes of heart hypertrophy, F-actin accumulations within myofibrils, and lethality
