Subsequent functional studies revealed that miR-139-5p overexpression inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of VICs by negatively modulating the expression of pro-osteogenic gene FZD4 and CTNNB1. In conclusion, these results suggest that miR-139-5p plays an important role in osteogenic differentiation of VICs via the Wnt/β-Catenin pathway, which may further provide a new therapeutic target for CAVD. Here, CTNNB1 is linked to congenital bilateral aplasia of vas deferens from CFTR mutation.
