Mouse Protein Wnt-7a(WNT7A) ELISA kit

Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors that functions in the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. Plays an important role in embryonic development, including dorsal versus ventral patterning during limb development, skeleton development and urogenital tract development. Required for central nervous system (CNS) angiogenesis and blood-brain barrier regulation. Required for normal, sexually dimorphic development of the Mullerian ducts, and for normal fertility in both sexes. Required for normal neural stem cell proliferation in the hippocampus dentate gyrus. Required for normal progress through the cell cycle in neural progenitor cells, for self-renewal of neural stem cells, and for normal neuronal differentiation and maturation. Promotes formation of synapses via its interaction with FZD5.

9. Binding of Wnt7a to Fzd7 leads to an activation of noncanonical Wnt signaling, resulting in directed myogenic stem cell migration and enhanced engraftment. PMID: 24711502
10. Wnt7a triggers melanocyte stem cell differentiation through beta-catenin activation, and Kitl might induce following migration of melanoblasts to epidermis PMID: 23702581

12. FN and Wnt7a together regulate the homeostatic levels of satellite stem cells and satellite myogenic cells during regenerative myogenesis. PMID: 23290138
13. Hyperactivated c-Met led to increased NF-kappaB signaling, which in turn, drove de novo expression of Wnt7a and overexpression of Wnt7b in Pkd1(-/-) mouse kidneys. PMID: 22677559
14. Our data demonstrate that Wnt7a is the earliest known gamma-motor neuron marker PMID: 22723712
15. These results indicate that WNT7A plays a critical role in postnatal uterine gland morphogenesis and function, which are important for blastocyst implantation and fertility in the adult uterus. PMID: 21508348
16. Data show that female Wnt7a-Cre(+)PR(f/-) mice are infertile due to defects in embryo attachment, stromal cell decidualization, and the inability to cease estrogen-induced epithelial cell proliferation. PMID: 22155565
17. Data show that the Fzd7 receptor complex was associated with Galpha(s) and PI(3)K and these components were required for Wnt7a to activate the Akt/mTOR growth pathway in myotubes. PMID: 22179044
18. Wnt-7a and sonic hedgehog (Shh) interfere differently with the process of neuronal differentiation by promoting distinct stages of neuronal differentiation in neonatal neural stem cells. PMID: 20868729
19. Data show that removal of canonical Wnt inhibitor DKK1 from DKK1-involuted mice results in full recovery, suggesting that canonical Wnt signaling is required for the differentiation or proliferation of TEC populations. PMID: 20161711
20. Wnt7a coordinates a variety of cell and developmental pathways that guide postnatal uterine growth and hormonal responses and that disruption of these pathways leads to aberrant cell death. PMID: 15070830
21. stage-specific physiological roles of Wnt signaling during neural development. PMID: 15142975
22. Wnt7a acts through low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 and the canonical Wnt signaling pathway during dorsal and posterior limb development in the mouse PMID: 15880584
23. Thus, our findings suggest that Wnt7a overexpression disrupts normal Wnt signaling in the neural tube, resulting in defective adherens junctions and neurulation. PMID: 16154760
24. We show that loss of function of Dishevelled-1 (Dvl1) mimics and enhances the Wnt7a phenotype in the cerebellum.Wnt7a/Dvl1 double mutant mice reveal a defect in neurotransmitter release at mossy fiber-granule cell synapses PMID: 16818724
