Tommy Andersson är forskargruppsledare för den här forskargruppenOur studies are focused on the revelation of WNT5A, a secreted glycoprotein. WNT5A belongs to the non-transforming class of WNTs, and upon binding to different receptors or co-receptor complexes, it elicits non-canonical (β-catenin-independent) signaling. WNT5A act as both tumor promoter as well as tumor suppressor, depending on cell type. For example, in breast cancer loss of WNT5A protein is ass
