Biological function summary
LGR5 marks adult stem cells in several rapidly self-renewing tissues. It forms part of a receptor complex that enhances Wnt signaling important for maintaining stemness and controlling cell fate. LGR5's activity ensures the self-renewal and differentiation balance within stem cell niches. The protein acts as a reliable stem cell marker in both intestinal and hair follicle stem cells facilitating their identification and isolation for research or therapeutic purposes.
Pathways
LGR5 interacts significantly with the Wnt signaling pathway playing a critical role in its activation. It associates with the R-spondin and LRP5/6 pathway components to potentiate Wnt signals thereby influencing cellular functions like proliferation and differentiation. LGR5's role in this pathway connects it with other key proteins such as β-catenin and TCF which are important for transcriptional regulation driven by Wnt pathway activation.
