Malignant gliomas have a highly tumorigenic subpopulation, termed cancer stem cells (CSCs), that drives tumor formation and proliferation. CSCs possess inherent resistance mechanisms against radiation- and chemotherapy-induced cancer cell death, enabling them to survive and initiate tumor recurrence. We examined the effect of secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (sFRP4), a Wnt signaling antagoni...
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...
Follicular development and ovulation are major processes in the reproductive system. Understanding their complexity is important to female fertility treatments and the control of reproductive processes. Wnt signaling pathway components were shown to be involved in reproduction in animal models. The secreted frizzled-related protein-4 (sFRP4), a potential modulator of Wnt4 signaling pathway, was...
beta-Catenin functions as a transducer of Wnt signals to the nucleus, where it interacts with the T cell factor (TCF) family of DNA binding proteins to regulate gene expression. On the basis of the genes regulated by beta-catenin and TCF in various biologic settings, two predicted functions of beta-catenin/TCF-dependent transcription are to mediate the loss of epithelial polarity and to promote...
A plethora of candidate genes have been identified for complex polygenic disorders, but the underlying disease mechanisms remain largely unknown. We explored the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes (T2D) by analyzing global gene expression in human pancreatic islets. A group of coexpressed genes (module), enriched for interleukin-1-related genes, was associated with T2D and reduced insulin secre...
BACKGROUND Activation of the Wnt signaling pathway is implicated in aberrant cellular proliferation in various cancers. In 40% of endometrioid ovarian cancers, constitutive activation of the pathway is due to oncogenic mutations in β-catenin or other inactivating mutations in key negative regulators. Secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (SFRP4) has been proposed to have inhibitory activity throu...
objective: the role of wnt signaling and its antagonist; secreted frizzled related protein type 4 (sfpr4) was reported in rodent ovarian follicular development. this study examines immunolocalization of sfrp4 in ovaries of polycystic ovary (pco) rat model and evaluates its role in follicular growth arrest and its premature differentiation. materials and mathods: pco was induced with daily admin...
Serum phosphate levels are regulated by PTH and the fibroblast growth factor 23 (Fgf23)/Klotho endocrine system, which both affect expression of Npt2a and thus the apical reabsorption of phosphate in the proximal renal tubules. In addition to Fgf23, secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (Sfrp4) has recently been implicated as an additional phosphate regulator in vivo and in vitro. Here we demonst...
Tumours contain a small number of treatment-resistant cancer stem cells (CSCs), and it is through these that tumour regrowth originates at secondary sites, thus rendering CSCs an attractive target for treatment. Cancer cells adapt cellular metabolism for aggressive proliferation. Tumour cells use less efficient glycolysis for the production of ATP and increasing tumour mass, instead of oxidativ...
To the Editor: Pyle’s disease (OMIM: %265900) is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia, characterized by a massive expansion of metaphyseal trabecular bone with significant cortical thinning (1). These changes are particularly obvious in the distal part of the femora, showing an Erlenmeyer flask deformity. Mild cranial sclerosis and mild platyspondyly can also be observed (1, 2). Clinic...
