WNT signaling through WNT5A and FZD2 leads to a decrease in intracellular cGMP levels in a manner that is dependent on G alpha t2 and PDE6 (Ahumada et al, 2002; Ma and Wang, 2006; Ma and Wang, 2007, Bazhin et al, 2010). In response to decreasing cGMP levels, the activity of cGMP-dependent protein kinase G (PKG) also decreases, and this reduction in PKG activity is required both for intracellular calcium release and for activation of NFAT-dependent transcription in response to WNT5A (Ma and Wang, 2006).
