Discovery of Wnts

Wnt genes:

• Wingless gene in Drosophila melanogaster

• Int gene in mice

• 24 has been discovered

• 19 are expressed in mammals

• 10 receptor genes - Frizzleds

(4)

Wnt family proteins

Comprises of 19 secreted glycoproteins controlling a variety of developmental processes:

• Cell fate specification

• Cell proliferation

• Cell polarity and cell migration

• Different types of cancers

• Various processes of aging

(5)

Frizzled (Fz) family receptors

• They are 7-TM receptors; however, assembly of an active Wnt-Fz receptor complex also requires the presence of a co- receptors, the low-density lipoprotein related protein 5 and 6 (LRP5/6)

Canonical pathway activators: Wnt1, Wnt3, Wnt3a, Wnt7a,

Wnt7b, Wnt8

Non-canonical pathway activators: Wnt5a, Wnt4, Wnt11

(6)

Canonical pathway

• In developing thymocytes or in thymic epithelium

• Signals from the Wnt-Fz-LRP6 complex lead to the phosphorylation of three domains of Dishevelled (Dvl), a family of cytosolic signal

transducer molecules.

• Activation of Dvl ultimately leads to phosphorylation and consequently inhibition of GSK-3

• Inhibition of GSK-3 results in stabilisation and consequent cytosolic accumulation of -catenin, which then translocates into the nucleus,

• -catenin forms active transcription complexes with members of the T- Cell Factor (LEF1, TCF1, TCF3, TCF4) transcription factor family and transcription initiator p300.

• Successful assembly of the transcription complex leads to the activation of various target genes including cyclin-D1, c-myc, c-jun , Fra-1 VEGFR, etc.

(7)

Non-canonical pathways

• Independent from -catenin

• Branches into the:

1 Polar cell polarity (PCP) or c-Jun-N Terminal

Kinase (JNK)/Activating Protein (AP1) dependent 2 Ca

2+

or Protein kinase C (PKC)/Calmodulin

Kinase (CaMKII)/Nuclear Factor of Activating T-

independent Wnt signalling pathways

1 The canonical pathway is the first and best characterized Wnt pathway. Signals are coming through the 7

transmembrane domains of Frizzled-receptors, than Dsh is phosphorylated and signal is transmitted via -catenin to TCF/LEF in the nucleus.

2 Ca-dependent Wnt signaling is transmitted by Frizzled-s

and G-proteins and the intracellular signaling molecules are CaMKII and different izotypes of PKCs. Inhibitory signals can use TAK and NLK to get into the nucleus. One of the key targets is NF-AT.

3 Planar cell polarity pathway is Ca dependent and using JNK

as well as PKCs to transduce signals to the AP1 complex.

in the aging thymus

• Wnt4 uses mainly the -catenin dependent canonical signaling pathway

• Wnt4 expression is decreasing during aging in the thymus

• The receptors of Wnt4 signaling are Frizzled-4 and Frizzled-6

• The expression pattern of Wnt4 receptors is changing during thymic senescence

• During aging the balance moves towards the Fz-6, transducing negative Wnt signals

• PKCd is modulating intracellularly the Wnt4 signaling mechanism

• CTGF - a target gene of Wnt4 signals- expression is increasing

• CTGF is a negative regulator of b-catenin dependent signaling

• CTGF and its recently described receptor Fz-8 is functioning as a secondary negative feedback mechanism of Wnt4 signaling
