Wnt5a and Notum Influence the Temporal Dynamics of Cartilaginous Mesenchymal Condensations in Developing Trachea.

| BioRxiv
Abstract The trachea is essential for proper airflow to the lungs for gas exchange. Frequent congenital tracheal malformations affect the cartilage, causing the collapse of the central airway during the respiratory cycle. We have shown that Notum, a Wnt ligand de-acylase that attenuates the canonical branch of the Wnt signaling pathway, is necessary for cartilaginous mesenchymal condensations. In Notum deficient tracheas, chondrogenesis is delayed, and the tracheal lumen is narrowed.

Wnt signaling regulates ion channel expression to promote smooth muscle and cartilage formation in developing mouse trachea

By Nicholas Russell, Ronak Shah, Kaulini Burra, Natalia Bottasso-Arias
| BioRxiv
ABSTRACT Ion channels play critical roles in the physiology and function of the nervous system and contractile tissue; however, their role in non-contractile tissue and embryonic development is less understood. Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) and complete tracheal rings (CTR) are disorders affecting the muscle and cartilage of the trachea and bronchi, whose etiology remains poorly understood.
