Table 5 Human genetic diseases and Wnt signaling components (original) (raw)
There are many cases of genetic diseases due to mutations in Wnt signaling components. See for a review: WNT and beta-catenin signalling: diseases and therapies. Moon RT, Kohn AD, De Ferrari GV, Kaykas A. Nat Rev Genet. 2004 Sep;5(9):691-701.
