- thick ventricular wall, abnormal heart morphology, abnormal retina vasculature morphology, enlarged heart
Subcellular localization
Ciliary associated gene
Functional category

Function
Expression of DKK1 inhibited the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and partially rescued osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. In summary, our results suggest that gastric cancer cells might cause bone damage prior to the occurrence of bone metastasis via cilia-dependent activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway(33690174).
