In the present study, effects of Wnt3a on the differentiation of hNPC were studied. The results showed that Wnt3a induces canonical and non canonical Wnt pathways. Furthermore, Wnt3a increases Ca2+ target genes CaMKII and Pyk2 in the differentiating VM cells. The results demonstrated that Pyk2 decreases GSK3$\beta$ activity and stabilizes $\beta$-catenin, suggesting there is an intercross between Wnt/$\beta$-catenin and Wnt/Ca2+-pathway via Pyk2.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Venkata Ajay Narendra Talabattula", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2017", url="http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve/urn/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2017-0048-9", language="English" }
