The canonical Wnt signaling pathway is not involved in renal cyst development in the kidneys of inv mutant mice.

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have identified several genes whose defects cause hereditary renal cystic diseases with most of the gene products located in the primary cilia. It has been suggested that primary cilia are involved in signaling pathways, defects of which result in abnormal cell proliferation and randomization of oriented cell division in the kidney leading to cyst formation. Mice with a mutation in the inv gene are...
