Wnt affects hindbrain ventricle size.
Quantification of brain ventricle size differences between DMSO controls and pharmacological manipulation of components of the Wnt pathway. XAV939 treated animals had significantly reduced ventricles (56% reduced, p-value 0.001) when compared to DMSO controls (MXAV939 = 90.69 μm3, SD XAV939 = 30.73, MDMSO = 206.95 μm3, SDDMSO = 23.05). Windorphen and ICG-001 treated animals had significantly reduced ventricles (70% reduced, p-value 0.01) when compared to DMSO controls (MWind+ICG = 87.47 μm3, SD Wind+ICG = 71.48, MDMSO = 148.48 μm3, SDDMSO = 23.87). SB216763 treated animals had significantly reduced ventricles (40% reduced, p-value 0.001) when compared to DMSO controls (MSB = 99.71 μm3, SD SB = 34.93, MDMSO = 140.21 μm3, SDDMSO = 27.58).
