Disease relevance of SFRP1

 

High impact information on SFRP1

  • SFRP1 regulates the growth of retinal ganglion cell axons through the Fz2 receptor [2].
  • Furthermore, retroviral mediated expression of a dominant-negative form of GSK3beta induced a retina phenotype similar to that observed after Sfrp1 overexpression, suggesting a possible involvement of this kinase in SFRP1 function [1].
  • Sfrp-1 and sfrp-2 are expressed in overlapping and distinct domains during chick development [3].
  • Here we show that Frzb-1, which encodes a secreted frizzled-related protein that can bind to Wnt proteins and can antagonize the activity of some Wnts, is expressed in the developing limb bud [4].
