Developmental signaling pathways control a vast array of biological processes during embryogenesis and in adult life. The WNT pathway was discovered simultaneously in cancer and development. Recent advances have expanded the role of WNT to a wide range of pathologies in humans. Here, we discuss the WNT pathway and its role in human disease and some of the advances in WNT-related treatments.
发育信号通路在胚胎发生和成年期控制着大量的生物学过程。WNT 途径在癌症和发育中同时被发现。最近的进展扩大了 WNT 在人类多种疾病中的作用。在这里,我们讨论了 WNT 途径及其在人类疾病中的作用,以及与 WNT 相关的治疗方法的一些进展。
