Wnt7b-induced Sox11 functions enhance self-renewal and osteogenic commitment of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
Title: Wnt7b-induced Sox11 functions enhance self-renewal and osteogenic commitment of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
Compound transgenic mice overexpress Wnt7b transiently in the osteoblast lineage of postnatal mice, with or without concurrent deletion of Glut1. Wnt7b overexpression stimulated bone formation, but this was abolished without Glut1. Wnt7b increased Glut1 expression and glucose consumption in the primary cultured osteoblast lineage cells. Wnt7b promotes bone formation in part through stimulating glucose metabolism in them.
Title: Increased glycolysis mediates Wnt7b-induced bone formation.
Our results suggest that aberrant Wnt7b expression activated c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which down-regulated mitochondria numbers by suppressing Ppargc1a Down-regulation of Ppargc1a probably decreased reactive oxygen species and enhanced glycolysis

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.
