Tempo-spatial regulation of the Wnt pathway by FAM13A modulates the stemness of alveolar epithelial progenitors.

Loss of Family with Sequence Similarity 13, Member A Exacerbates Pulmonary Fibrosis Potentially by Promoting Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition.
Title: Loss of Family with Sequence Similarity 13, Member A Exacerbates Pulmonary Fibrosis Potentially by Promoting Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition.
GWAS-associated variants within the FAM13A locus alter adipose FAM13A expression, which in turn, regulates adipocyte differentiation and contribute to changes in body fat distribution.
Title: FAM13A affects body fat distribution and adipocyte function.
Fam13a expression was reduced in the lungs of mice with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. Genetic loss of Fam13a exacerbated pulmonary hypertension in mice exposed to chronic hypoxia in association with deteriorated pulmonary artery remodeling. Study data revealed a protective role of Fam13a in the development of pulmonary hypertension.
Title: Loss of family with sequence similarity 13, member A exacerbates pulmonary hypertension through accelerating endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition.
Fam13a(-/-) mice only exhibited a tendency of higher adiposity and were not protected from DIO and insulin resistance. While Fam13a(-/-) SVCs maintained normal adipogenesis, overexpression of FAM13A in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes downregulated beta-catenin signaling and rendered preadipocytes more susceptible to apoptosis
Title: Obesity-associated family with sequence similarity 13, member A (FAM13A) is dispensable for adipose development and insulin sensitivity.
Genetic loss of Fam13a exacerbated obesity-related metabolic disorders.
Title: Family with sequence similarity 13, member A modulates adipocyte insulin signaling and preserves systemic metabolic homeostasis.
A genetic locus within the FAM13A gene has been consistently associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in genome-wide association studies.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
