Wnt/β-catenin signaling cell-autonomously converts non-hepatic endodermal cells to a liver fate

Summary Wnt/β-catenin signaling plays multiple roles in liver development including hepatoblast proliferation and differentiation, hepatocyte differentiation, and liver zonation. A positive role for Wnt/β-catenin signaling in liver specification was recently identified in zebrafish; however, its und...
