High impact information on FZD2

  • SFRP1 regulates the growth of retinal ganglion cell axons through the Fz2 receptor [1].
  • Chick frizzled-2 (cFz-2) and frizzled-7 (cFz-7) are expressed broadly in cranial ectoderm, tissue that is competent to express markers of the trigeminal placode (Stark et al., 1997. Development 124, 4287-4295; Baker et al., 1999. Development 126, 147-156) [2].
 

Other interactions of FZD2

  • In addition, cFz-2 and cFz-7 are uniquely expressed in other cranial placodes, including the olfactory, lens, and otic placodes [2].
