Wnt Signaling
Wnt signaling
A family of signals with important roles in development, tissue renewal, and cell fate.
Overview
EXPLORE BY LEVELWnt signals help cells make decisions about growth and identity. The outcome depends on which Wnt route a cell uses.

PathwayPI3K-AKT-mTOR SignalingA growth- and nutrient-responsive network in which PI3K lipid signals regulate AKT and connect with mTORC1, metabolism, survival, and biosynthesis.PathwayRAS-RAF-MEK-ERK Signaling (MAPK)A growth-signal network whose core RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK relay regulates cell responses, with output shaped by feedback, location, and cell context.PathwayGlycolysisThe ten-step cytosolic pathway that splits one glucose into two pyruvate, with a net gain of 2 ATP and 2 NADH.PathwayPentose Phosphate pathwayThe pentose phosphate pathway branches from glucose 6-phosphate. Its oxidative branch makes NADPH and ribulose 5-phosphate; its reversible non-oxidative reactions interconvert pentoses with glycolytic intermediates to match biosynthetic demand.

Research Claims
Wnt signaling includes canonical and noncanonical branches with ligand, receptor, co-receptor, and tissue-specific effects; the branches should not be collapsed into one mechanism.
