This study identifies R-spondin2 as a modulator of planar cell polarity in the Xenopus neural plate, showing it maintains Vangl2 asymmetry and limits its phosphorylation.

This study shows FGFR1 modulates PCP in the neuroectoderm by phosphorylating Vangl2, disrupting its interaction with Prickle and PTK7.

This study shows that Frizzled3 inhibits Vangl2-Prickle3 association in Xenopus neural plate cells, regulating planar cell polarity through phosphorylation.

This study shows that importin α7 deficiency in male mice causes infertility by disrupting spermatogenesis through impaired Sertoli cell function and defects in spermiogenesis.
