Deskripsi
WNTs can signal over long distances but how this arises in the brain is unclear. Here, the authors show that WNT5A is secreted from the choroid plexus of the developing hindbrain (but not the telencephalon) and transported in the CSF with lipoprotein particles in order to control cerebellar morphogenesis.
