Regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by redox signaling

Although it is well established that reactive oxygen species (ROS) can function as intracellular messengers, the mechanism of ROS dependent signaling is largely unknown ( Rhee et al., 2005). In a recent paper in Nature Cell Biology, Funato et al. (2006) demonstrate that ROS can modulate signaling by...

Zusammenfassung:Although it is well established that reactive oxygen species (ROS) can function as intracellular messengers, the mechanism of ROS dependent signaling is largely unknown ( Rhee et al., 2005). In a recent paper in Nature Cell Biology, Funato et al. (2006) demonstrate that ROS can modulate signaling by the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. This work provides interesting new insight into cross-talk between redox and Wnt/β-catenin signaling in normal physiology and cancer.
