Noncanonical Wnt Signaling Promotes Myofibroblast Differentiation in Pulmonary Fibrosis
9 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The Wnt/β-catenin pathway initiates a signaling cascade that is critical in cell differentiation and the normal development of multiple organ systems. The reactivation of this pathway has been documented in experimental and human idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, wherein Wnt/β-catenin activation has been implicated in epithelial-cell repair. Furthermore, the canonical ligand Wnt3a is known to induce...
