Type:
The Wnt signaling pathway is a complex network of proteins that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. It is particularly important during embryonic development and tissue homeostasis. Dysregulation of the Wnt pathway has been implicated in various cancers, making it a significant area of research in oncology.
Wnt Ligands
Wnt1: Often overexpressed in breast cancer and some types of leukemia.
Wnt Receptors
Frizzled (Fzd) Receptors: Different Fzd receptors (e.g., Fzd1, Fzd2, Fzd7) have been implicated in various cancers:
Fzd1: Overexpressed in colorectal cancer.
Fzd2: Associated with breast cancer and prostate cancer.
Fzd7: Linked to gastric cancer and glioblastoma.
