Wnt signaling in bone and muscle
Open accessAbstract
Wnt signaling plays key roles in many aspects of development. In this review, we will briefly describe the components of signaling pathways induced by Wnt ligands and then describe the current state of research as this applies to aspects of development and disease as it relates to skeletal muscle and bone. We will conclude with a discussion of the parallels and differences in Wnt signaling in these two contexts and how these pathways are being (or could potentially be) targeted for therapeutic treatment of musculoskeletal diseases. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Muscle Bone Interactions".

Dickkopfs are secreted proteins capable of antagonizing Wnt signaling by inhibiting the coreceptors LRP5 and LRP6.
“Nevertheless, given that Dickkopfs are secreted proteins capable of antagonizing Wnt signaling by inhibiting the coreceptors LRP5 and LRP6 (43, 44), these findings suggest that increased Wnt signaling may also be involved in the increase in bone mass induced by ACVR2B/Fc.”
From Targeting myostatin/activin A protects against skeletal muscle and bone loss during spaceflight (2020) · cites this paper as [44]
In “Wnt-Induced Signaling Pathways” (page unavailable), the paper says Dickkopf-family proteins inhibit canonical Wnt signaling by preventing Wnt ligands from binding LRP5/6. Our copy does not explicitly say that Dickkopfs are secreted; its statements about secretion concern Wnts and secreted frizzled-related proteins. (LLM, conf=0.82)

“Nevertheless, given that Dickkopfs are secreted proteins capable of antagonizing Wnt signaling by inhibiting the coreceptors LRP5 and LRP6 (43, 44), these findings suggest that increased Wnt signaling may also be involved in the increase in bone mass induced by ACVR2B/Fc.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
