Noncanonical Wnt signaling promotes apoptosis in thymocyte development

The Wnt–β-catenin signaling pathway has been shown to govern T cell development by regulating the growth and survival of progenitor T cells and immature thymocytes. We explore the role of noncanonical, Wnt–Ca2+ signaling in fetal T cell development by analyzing mice deficient for Wnt5a. Our findings...
