Wnt co-receptors Lrp5 and Lrp6 differentially mediate Wnt3a signaling in osteoblasts.

Wnt3a is a major regulator of bone metabolism however, very few of its target genes are known in bone. Wnt3a preferentially signals through transmembrane receptors Frizzled and co-receptors Lrp5/6 to activate the canonical signaling pathway. Previous studies have shown that the canonical Wnt co-rece...
