Secreted frizzled-related protein 4 regulates two Wnt7a signaling pathways and inhibits proliferation in endometrial cancer cells.
In the endometrium, hormonal effects on epithelial cells are often elicited through stromal hormone receptors via unknown paracrine mechanisms. Several lines of evidence support the hypothesis that Wnts participate in stromal-epithelial cell communication. Wnt7a is expressed in the luminal epithelium, whereas the extracellular modulator of Wnt signaling, secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (SFR...
متن کاملexogenous secreted frizzled-related protein-4 modulates steroidogenesis of rat granulosa cells through wnt/bcatenin and pi3k/akt signaling pathways
background: it has been reported that secreted frizzled-related protein-4 known as an antagonist of wnt signaling pathway plays a role in luteinization process of rodent granulosa cells. the purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to determine whether recombinant human secreted frizzled-related protein-4 (rhsfrp-4) could directly induce terminal differentiation of rat granulosa cells (gcs) and 2)...
متن کاملEffects of fibromodulin protein expression on NFkB and TGFβ signaling pathways in liver cancer cells
Introduction: The incidence rate of liver cancer is continuously increasing. Currently, gene therapy is applied to improve various medical issues such as cancer treatment approaches. Correspondingly, fibromodulin involves in many biological and physiological processes through interaction with growth factors and signaling pathway receptors. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of...
متن کاملPaeoniflorin inhibits proliferation of endometrial cancer cells via activating MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways
Paeoniflorin (PAE), a principal bioactive component of Paeonia lactiflora Pall., appears to have antitumor properties. However, the pharmacological activity of PAE in endometrial cancer and the specific mechanisms have remained largely elusive. The present study aimed to determine the antitumor activity of PAE in the human endometrial cancer cell line RL95-2 and explore the potential mechanisms...
متن کاملFritz: a secreted frizzled-related protein that inhibits Wnt activity
Signaling molecules of the Wnt gene family are involved in the regulation of dorso-ventral, segmental and tissue polarity in Xenopus and Drosophila embryos. Members of the frizzled gene family, such as Drosophila frizzled-2 and rat frizzled-1, have been shown encode Wnt binding activity and to engage intracellular signal transduction molecules known to be part of the Wnt signaling pathway. Here...
