Gone with the Wnt: the canonical Wnt signaling axis is present and androgen dependent in the rodent gubernaculum
Conclusion: Axin2 expression in the E19 gubernaculum confirms canonical Wnt pathway activation. Its absence in the core of flutamide-treated gubernacula indicates Wnt down-regulation. As androgen is required for inguinoscrotal descent, downstream Wnt signaling may control initial gubernacular remodeling. Defects in this complex molecular process may play a role in cryptorchidism.
