Research Abstract |
Constitutively active Wnt5a-Ror2 signaling results in activated Dishevelled2, Rac1, JNK and transcriptional factor AP1 in human osteosarcoma SaOS-2 cells, resulting in subsequent induced expression of MMP-13 that is capable of degrading extracellular matrix, involved in cancer cell invasiveness. Wnt5a-Ror2 signaling involves endochondral ossification of cartilaginous tissue in mouse embryo, indicating crucial role in developmental conditions.
