Agonist Comments
WNT-3A, WNT-5A and WNT-7A have been shown to bind to the FZD5 receptor using immunoprecipitation. Due to the lack of purified and biologically active WNTs hardly any information on the specificity and pharmacology of FZD-WNT interaction is available. Extensive and quantitative binding assays have not been performed with mammalian FZDs. For further information see [3].

Antibody Comments
IgG-2919 and IgG-2921 are FZD5 antibodies that have exhibited antitumour activities in vitro and in vivo (inhibiting the growth of RNF43-mutant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells/xenograft tumours), by blocking autocrine Wnt-β-catenin signalling in these mutant, FZD5-dependent cells [12].
