WNT3 — WNT8B

Text-mined interactions from Literome

Kim et al., Development 2002 : We show that in zebrafish embryos : ( 1 ) Wnt signalling has at least two different stage-specific posteriorizing activities in the anterior neuroectoderm, one before mid-gastrulation and the other at late gastrulation ; ( 2 ) Fz8a plays an important role in mediating anterior brain patterning ; ( 3 ) Wnt8b and Fz8a can functionally interact to transmit posteriorizing signals that determine the fate of the posterior diencephalon and midbrain in late gastrula embryos ; and ( 4 ) Wnt8b can suppress fz8a expression in the anterior neuroectoderm and potentially affect the level and/or range of Wnt signalling
Fotaki et al., Dev Dyn 2010 : Loss of Wnt8b has no overt effect on hippocampus development but leads to altered Wnt gene expression levels in dorsomedial telencephalon
