Supplementary information

SFRP4 also known as Secreted Frizzled Related Protein 4 is a 40 kDa protein involved in modulating Wnt signaling pathways. It is a member of the secreted frizzled-related proteins (sFRPs) that act as Wnt antagonists. SFRP4 has a cysteine-rich domain homologous to the Wnt-binding site on frizzled proteins. Expressed in many tissues including the heart lung and kidney SFRP4 plays a role in various physiological processes by influencing cell signaling.
Biological function summary

SFRP4 regulates cell growth and differentiation. It interacts with Wnt ligands preventing them from binding to their receptors. SFRP4 does not typically function as part of a protein complex acting instead as an antagonist on its own. By inhibiting Wnt activity SFRP4 influences embryonic development tissue homeostasis and even cancer progression. The impact of SFRP4 varies depending on the tissue-specific context reflecting its complex biological roles.

Pathways

SFRP4 is significant in the Wnt signaling pathway and the β-catenin independent pathway. By interacting with Wnt ligands SFRP4 can prevent the activation of canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling a pathway involved in cell fate determination and stem cell renewal. It also influences the non-canonical pathways where the Wnt signaling does not involve β-catenin impacting processes like cell movement and polarity. In these pathways SFRP4 interacts with proteins such as Disheveled and Axin modulating their activities.

The disruption of SFRP4 expression links to osteoarthritis and breast cancer. Abnormal SFRP4 levels can result in improper Wnt signaling contributing to these conditions. In osteoarthritis SFRP4 imbalance affects cartilage integrity while in breast cancer altered SFRP4 expression may influence tumor growth and progression. Related proteins such as β-catenin in cancer or MMPs in osteoarthritis highlight the importance of SFRP4 in disease susceptibility and progression.

Target data

Soluble frizzled-related proteins (sFRPS) function as modulators of Wnt signaling through direct interaction with Wnts. They have a role in regulating cell growth and differentiation in specific cell types (By similarity). SFRP4 plays a role in bone morphogenesis. May also act as a regulator of adult uterine morphology and function. May also increase apoptosis during ovulation possibly through modulation of FZ1/FZ4/WNT4 signaling (By similarity). Has phosphaturic effects by specifically inhibiting sodium-dependent phosphate uptake (PubMed : 12952927).
