Although much of what we now know about the role of this pathway in bone is derived from in vitro and animal studies, the same cannot be said about humans. As such, we hypothesized that Wnt signaling will also be a key process in humans during physiological fracture healing as well as in the development of a nonunion (hypertrophic and oligotrophic). We further hypothesized that the expression of Wnt-signaling pathway genes/proteins would exhibit a differential expression pattern between physiological fracture callus and the pathological nonunion tissues. We tested these two hypotheses by examining the mRNA levels of key Wnt-signaling related genes: ligands (WNT4, WNT10a), receptors (FZD4, LRP5, LRP6), inhibitors (DKK1, SOST) and modulators (CTNNB1 and PORCN). RNA sequencing from calluses as well as from the two nonunion tissue types, revealed that all of these genes were expressed at about the same level in these three tissue types. Further, spatial expression experiments identified the cells responsible of producing these proteins. Robust expression was detected in osteoblasts for the majority of these genes except SOST which displayed low expression, but in contrast, was mostly detected in osteocytes. Many of these genes were also expressed by callus chondrocytes as well. Taken together, these results confirm that Wnt signaling is indeed active during both human physiological fracture healing as well as in pathological nonunions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":9043,"journal":{"name":"Bone Reports","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352187224000470/pdfft?md5=5849fc4b34d3d280b9e9ffa30686a7fc&pid=1-s2.0-S2352187224000470-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141429715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
