It plays a role in non-canonical Wnt signaling which means it does not involve the typical Wnt\/beta-catenin pathway. The protein has a molecular weight of approximately 42 kDa and is widely expressed in various tissues including the brain lungs and reproductive organs. Wnt5a influences several cellular processes such as cell movement polarity and organ development by binding to Frizzled family receptors and co-receptors like ROR1 and ROR2.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nWnt5a drives critical processes in development and tissue homeostasis. It acts by guiding cell migration and establishing cell polarity. Wnt5a is not part of a single large complex but interacts with membrane receptors and co-receptors to exert its effects. This interaction initiates signaling cascades that regulate cytoskeletal dynamics which is essential in both embryonic development and adult tissue maintenance. Wnt5a's role is pivotal in maintaining cellular organization and function across different biological contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nWnt5a participates significantly in the planar cell polarity pathway and the Wnt\/Ca2+ signaling pathway. In these pathways Wnt5a affects the activity of proteins such as Dishevelled and CaMKII to influence cellular functions independently from beta-catenin. These pathways regulate processes like tissue morphogenesis and cell orientation maintaining the spatial arrangement and structural integrity of tissues.\u003cbr\u003e\nWnt5a has been linked to cancer progression and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. It interacts with proteins like ROR1 and ROR2 during these pathologies. In cancer abnormal Wnt5a signaling can lead to enhanced cell migration and invasion contributing to metastasis. In rheumatoid arthritis Wnt5a may drive inflammatory pathways and joint tissue damage. Researchers consider Wnt5a a target for therapeutic interventions in these conditions with ongoing studies focused on modulating its activity for disease management.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843826307241,"sku":"ab204627","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab204627","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
