摘要
Wnt信号通路是参与体内多种器官发育和组织新陈代谢的保守性通路,可分为经典和非经典Wnt信号通路.其中,经典Wnt信号通路通过调节下游的成骨相关转录因子调控细胞成骨分化、骨基质形成和矿化,且在细胞分化的不同阶段发挥不同的调控作用.此外,经典Wnt信号通路还调控牙周组织干细胞成骨分化,该作用受外界微环境的影响.加深对经典Wnt信号通路的认识有助于治疗相关的骨疾病.
The Wnt signaling pathway,including the canonical and the non-canonical,is a conservative pathway which participates in organ development and tissue metabolism.The canonical Wnt pathway plays an important role in osteogenesis,bone formation and mineralization through the osteogenesis associated transcription factors.The canonical Wnt pathway also regulates osteogenic differentiation of the stem cells in the periodontal tissue and the regulative effect is influenced by the microenvironment.Understanding of the canonical Wnt pathway will contribute to the treatment of some related bone diseases.
