Wnt signaling pathway has been the focus of medical research as it plays a significant role in regulating the growth, development and differentiation of cells. Recent studies have revealed that Wnt signaling pathway may play an important role in regulating the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), the mechanism of which has been the hotspot of bone tissue engineering and provides a new way for the treatment of diseases such as osteoporosis. The research progress of Wnt signaling pathway in regulating osteogenic differentiation of MSCs is reviewed in this paper.
