These results demonstrate that tubulin is identified for the first time as a target molecule of the Wnt-activating small molecule and that this might have misled the conclusions of some previous studies. Moreover, the present study also emphasizes that our pathway profiling database is a simple and potent tool for revealing the mechanisms of action of hit compounds obtained from phenotypic screenings and off targets of chemical probes.
