QP552.W58 572/.64 23 Includes bibliographical references and index. Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher. "Widely recognized as one of the most important signaling mechanisms in development and disease, Wnt signaling pathways are networks of proteins that play significant roles in embryogenesis or cancer development. Wnt Signaling in Development and Disease addresses the fundamentals of Wnt signaling and delves into molecular pathway mechanisms, its role in embryogenesis, adult tissue homeostasis, and chronic disease. This comprehensive resource details current knowledge of Wnt signaling while looking ahead to future progress"--Provided by publisher. 2014 Text 1 online resource. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/book/10.1002/9781118444122 eng Wnt signaling in development and disease Wnt signaling in development and disease
