Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** FZD8 is a single-pass transmembrane receptor that belongs to the Frizzled family of receptors, which are characterized by the presence of a seven-transmembrane domain structure. The receptor is composed of two extracellular cysteine-rich domains, which are essential for the recognition and binding of Wnt ligands. FZD8 is highly expressed in various tissues, including the brain, kidneys, and intestinal epithelium, where it plays a crucial role in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. **Pathways and Functions:** FZD8 is involved in the canonical and non-canonical Wnt signaling pathways, which are essential for the regulation of various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. The canonical Wnt signaling pathway involves the binding of Wnt ligands to FZD8, which activates the transcription factor β-catenin, leading to the activation of target gene expression. The non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway involves the activation of the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway, which regulates cell polarity and migration. FZD8 also interacts with other signaling molecules, including LRP5/6, which are co-receptors that facilitate the transduction of Wnt signals. The interaction between FZD8 and LRP5/6 is essential for the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival in various tissues. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of the Wnt signaling pathway, including the FZD8 receptor, has been implicated in various immunological disorders, including autoimmune diseases, cancer, and inflammatory diseases. For example, mutations in the FZD8 gene have been associated with an increased risk of developing certain types of cancer, including colorectal cancer. FZD8 has also been implicated in the regulation of immune cell function, including the differentiation and proliferation of T cells and dendritic cells. Dysregulation of FZD8 signaling has been associated with impaired immune responses and increased susceptibility to infection. In addition, FZD8 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), which is essential for the development and maintenance of immune homeostasis in the gut. **Conclusion:** In conclusion, FZD8 is a critical component of the Wnt signaling pathway, which plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Dysregulation of FZD8 signaling has been implicated in various immunological disorders, including autoimmune diseases, cancer, and inflammatory diseases. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of FZD8 in the regulation of immune responses and to develop novel therapeutic strategies to target this receptor in the treatment of immunological disorders.
