    transmit Wnt signals to regulate cell growth and differentiation

    Frizzled receptors, also known as FZD receptors, are a family of proteins that play a crucial role in cell signaling, particularly in the Wnt signaling pathway. This pathway is essential for various developmental processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and tissue regeneration. Frizzled receptors are involved in transmitting signals from outside the cell to the inside, influencing gene expression and cellular behavior.
