Early Transcriptional Changes Induced by Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Hippocampal Neurons by Eduardo Pérez-Palma, Víctor Andrade, Mario O. Caracci, Bernabé I. Bustos, Camilo Villaman, Matías A. Medina, Miguel E. Ávila, Giorgia D. Ugarte, Giancarlo V. De Ferrari

“…Since one of the main effects of Wnt/β-catenin signaling is the modulation of target genes, in the present work we examined global transcriptional changes induced by short-term Wnt3a treatment (4 h) in primary cultures of rat hippocampal neurons. RNAseq experiments allowed the identification of 170 differentially expressed genes, including known Wnt/β-catenin target genes such as Notum, Axin2, and Lef1, as well as novel potential candidates Fam84a, Stk32a, and Itga9. …”
