Wnt signaling involves many aspects of development, cell biology and physiology. Mutations in the Wnt gene can lead to abnormal embryonic development and cancer formation, including various aspects that affect proliferation, morphogenesis, and differentiation. The occurrence and development of tumors is a complex process involving multiple factors. The Wnt signaling pathway participates in this process as an anti-tumor target by activating multiple gene transcriptions. The emergence of Wnt pathway inhibitors and targeted drugs has opened up a new world of cancer treatment. This review focuses on the mechanism of action of the Wnt signaling pathway in different cancers. Secondly, we have organized and introduced the latest Wnt anti-tumor drugs.

Low fertility in cows leads to early removal from herds. Since reproductive traits are complex and have low heritability, genetic analysis can aid in improving reproduction. This study identified key genes linked to fertility by conducting genome- and transcriptome-wide association studies, RNA-seq analysis, meta-analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and functional enrichment analysis.

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a malignant gynecological cancer with an extremely poor prognosis. Stress granules (SGs) are non-membrane organelles that respond to stressors; however, the correlation between SG-related genes and the prognosis of OC remains unclear. This systematic analysis aimed to determine the expression levels of SG-related genes between high- and low-risk groups of patients with OC and to explore the prognostic value of these genes.

Polyphenols, a diverse group of naturally occurring compounds found in plants, have garnered significant attention for their potential therapeutic properties in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). The Wnt/β-catenin (WβC) signaling pathway, a crucial player in neurogenesis, neuronal survival, and synaptic plasticity, is involved in several cellular mechanisms related to NDs. Dysregulation of this pathway is a hallmark in the development of various NDs.

Schizophrenia is one of the most debilitating mental illnesses affecting any age group. The mechanism and etiology of schizophrenia are extremely complex and multiple signaling pathways recruit genes implicated in the etiology of this disease. While the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in this disorder has been verified, the impact of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) associated with this pathway has not been studied in schizophrenia.
