Local modulation of signaling activity by CTGF. CTGF modulates the WNT, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), and transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) pathways but also signals directly via known and putative receptors, thereby potentiating harmful and inhibiting protective signals. Although the indicated interactions have been demonstrated in various biological systems, their individual roles in diabetic nephropathy remain to be determined. FZD, frizzled receptor; ITG, integrin-type receptors.
