Wnt5a belongs to the large WNT family of cysteine - rich secreted glycoproteins,which is involved in multiple signaling pathways that regulates a variety of cellular processes including cell fate,embryonic development,cell motility,proliferation and differentiation. Growing evidences have shown that Wnt5a was involved in the activation of noncanonical Wnt signaling, including planar cell polarity (PCP), Wnt - Ca~(2+),and Wnt /JNK pathways. As a member of Ror - family of receptor tyrosine kinases,Ror2,acts as a receptor or coreceptor for Wnt5a and mediates noncanonial Wnt5a signaling. Wnt5a /Ro...
