- Wikipedia, July 20, 2020:Wnt signaling pathway (The Wnt signaling pathways are a group of signal transduction pathways which begin with proteins that pass signals into a cell through cell surface receptors. The name Wnt is a portmanteau created from the names Wingless and Int-1. Wnt signaling pathways use either nearby cell-cell communication (paracrine) or same-cell communication (autocrine). They are highly evolutionarily conserved in animals, which means they are similar across animal species from fruit flies to humans. Three Wnt signaling pathways have been characterized: the canonical Wnt pathway, the noncanonical planar cell polarity pathway, and the noncanonical Wnt/calcium pathway. All three pathways are activated by the binding of a Wnt-protein ligand to a Frizzled family receptor, which passes the biological signal to the Dishevelled protein inside the cell)

SN A complex signaling pathway whose name is derived from the Drosophila Wg gene, and the vertebrate INT gene. The signaling pathway is initiated by the binding of Wnt proteins to cell surface Wnt receptors which interact with the Axin signaling complex and an array of second messengers that influence the actions of beta catenin.
