1 To elucidate the potential role of Wnt5a-mediated non-canonical Wnt-YAP/TAZ signaling in the lung injury induced by short-term exposure of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP, a representative PAHs), intratracheally instilled mouse model was used and further interfered with its Wnt5a level by small molecule antagonists and agonists.

2 Our findings together suggest that Wnt5a is a potential endogenous regulator in lung inflammation and airway epithelial injury, and Wnt5a-YAP/TAZ signaling contributes to lung dysfunction in acute exposure to BaP. Benzo(a)pyrene tafazzin, phospholipid-lysophospholipid transacylase Mus musculus
