The role of the Wnt signaling pathway in osteoblast commitment and differentiation.

Abstract excerpt

Wnts are a large family of proteins that participate in an array of cellular biological processes such as embryogenesis, organogenesis and tumor formation. These proteins bind to membrane receptor complexes comprised of a frizzled (Fz) G-protein-coupled receptor and other membrane co-receptors forming molecular groups that initiate, at least, three different intracellular signaling cascades leading to nuclear...
