摘要

Abstract

The evolutionarily conserved Wnt signaling pathway plays a central role in development and adult tissue homeostasis across species. Wnt proteins are secreted

lipid-modified signaling molecules that activate the canonical (β-catenin dependent) and non-canonical (β-catenin independent) Wnt signaling pathways. Cellular behaviors such as proliferation

differentiation

maturation

and proper body-axis specification are carried out by the canonical pathway

which is the best characterized of the known Wnt signaling paths. Wnt signaling has emerged as an important factor in stem cell biology and is known to affect the self-renewal of stem cells in various tissues. This includes but is not limited to embryonic

hematopoietic

mesenchymal

gut

neural

and epidermal stem cells. Wnt signaling has also been implicated in tumor cells that exhibit stem cell-like properties. Wnt signaling is crucial for bone formation and presents a potential target for the development of therapeutics for bone disorders. Not surprisingly

aberrant Wnt signaling is also associated with a wide variety of diseases

including cancer. Mutations of Wnt pathway members in cancer can lead to unchecked cell proliferation

epithelial–mesenchymal transition

and metastasis. Altogether

advances in the understanding of dysregulated Wnt signaling in disease have paved the way for the development of novel therapeutics that target components of the Wnt pathway. Beginning with a brief overview of the mechanisms of canonical and non-canonical Wnt

this review aims to summarize the current knowledge of Wnt signaling in stem cells

aberrations to the Wnt pathway associated with diseases

and novel therapeutics targeting the Wnt pathway in preclinical and clinical studies.
