Wnt signalling pathways, illustration C018 / 0917
Wnt signalling pathways, illustration. Wnt signalling pathways are three separate pathways that pass signals from outside a cell to inside the cell. They are all initiated by the binding of a Wnt protein to a Frizzled family receptor on the cell surface. This extracellular binding triggers intracellular signalling cascades that may influence gene transcription, the cytoskeleton, or calcium levels. Wnt signalling pathways are highly conserved between species, and are used to signal between nearby cells as well as within single cells

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Wnt Signalling Pathways, Illustration C018/0917" showcases the intricate and fascinating world of cellular communication. The image captures the complexity of Wnt signalling pathways, which serve as crucial channels for transmitting signals from outside a cell to its interior. In this artwork, we witness the initiation of these pathways through the binding of a Wnt protein to a Frizzled family receptor on the cell surface. This extracellular interaction sets off an array of intracellular signalling cascades that can profoundly impact various cellular processes such as gene transcription, cytoskeleton organization, and calcium levels. What makes Wnt signalling pathways even more remarkable is their high conservation across different species. These pathways not only facilitate communication between neighboring cells but also play vital roles within individual cells themselves. The blue background in this illustration adds depth and enhances our understanding of this biochemical phenomenon occurring at a microscopic level. Claudia Stocker's artistic representation masterfully combines elements of biology and cell signaling to create an engaging visual narrative. Through this thought-provoking artwork, we gain insight into the intricate mechanisms that govern life at its most fundamental level – highlighting how cells communicate with one another to orchestrate complex biological processes essential for development and homeostasis.
