To Wnt or not to Wnt: the bone and joint health dilemma
Open accessAbstract
The Wnt signalling cascades have essential roles in development, growth and homeostasis of joints and the skeleton. Progress in basic research, particularly relating to our understanding of intracellular signalling cascades and fine regulation of receptor activation in the extracellular space, has provided novel insights into the roles of Wnt signalling in chronic arthritis. Cartilage and bone homeostasis require finely tuned Wnt signalling; both activation and suppression of the Wnt–β-catenin cascade can lead to osteoarthritis in rodent models. Genetic associations with the Wnt antagonist encoded by FRZB and the transcriptional regulator encoded by Dot1l with osteoarthritis further corroborate the essential part played by Wnts in the joint. In rheumatoid arthritis, inhibition of Wnt signalling has a role in the persistence of bone erosions, whereas Wnts have been associated with the ankylosing phenotype in spondyloarthritis. Together, these observations identify the Wnt pathway as an attractive target for therapeutic intervention; however, the complexity of the Wnt signalling cascades and the potential secondary effects of drug interventions targeting them highlight the need for further research and suggest that our understanding of this exciting pathway is still in its infancy.

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.
