Role of Neuropilin-1 in Diabetic Nephropathy [PDF]
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) often develops in patients suffering from type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. DN is characterized by renal injury resulting in proteinuria. Neuropilin-1 (NRP-1) is a single-pass transmembrane receptor protein devoid of enzymatic activity.

Neuropilin-1 Participates in Wound Angiogenesis [PDF]
Angiogenesis, the formation of new capillaries from existing vasculature, plays an essential role in tissue repair. The rapid onset and predominance of proangiogenic factors optimizes healing in damaged tissues. One factor that directly mediates wound vessel angiogenesis is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Myeloid‐resident neuropilin‐1 promotes choroidal neovascularization while mitigating inflammation
Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) in its various forms is a leading cause of blindness in industrialized countries. Here, we provide evidence that ligands for neuropilin‐1 (NRP1), such as Semaphorin 3A and VEGF‐A, are elevated in the vitreous of ...

Neuropilin 1 regulates bone marrow vascular regeneration and hematopoietic reconstitution
Ionizing radiation and chemotherapy deplete haematopoietic stem cells and damage the vascular niche. Here the authors show that irradiation induces SEMA3A secretion from bone marrow endothelial cells (ECs), inducing EC apoptosis via NRP1 and that NRP1 ...

Role of Neuropilin 1 in COVID-19 Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can trigger the adaptive and innate immune responses, leading to uncontrolled inflammatory reactions and associated local and systematic tissue damage, along with thromboembolic ...

Neuropilin-1/GIPC1 signaling regulates α5β1 integrin traffic and function in endothelial cells [PDF]
Neuropilin 1 (Nrp1) is a coreceptor for vascular endothelial growth factor A165 (VEGF-A165, VEGF-A164 in mice) and semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A). Nevertheless, <i>Nrp1</i> null embryos display vascular defects that differ from those of mice lacking ...

Neuropilin 1 and 2 control cranial gangliogenesis and axon guidance through neural crest cells [PDF]
Neuropilin (NRP) receptors and their class 3 semaphorin (SEMA3) ligands play well-established roles in axon guidance, with loss of NRP1, NRP2, SEMA3A or SEMA3F causing defasciculation and errors in growth cone guidance of peripherally projecting nerves ...

Identification of circulating neuropilin-1 and dose-dependent elevation following anti-neuropilin-1 antibody administration [PDF]
Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) acts as a co-receptor for class 3 semaphorins and vascular endothelial growth factor and is an attractive angiogenesis target for cancer therapy. In addition to the transmembrane form, naturally occurring soluble NRP1 proteins containing part of the extracellular domain have been identified in tissues and a cell line.

New Biosensor for Determination of Neuropilin-1 with Detection by Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging
Neuropilin-1 is transmembrane protein with soluble isoforms. It plays a pivotal role in both physiological and pathological processes. NRP-1 is involved in the immune response, formation of neuronal circuits, angiogenesis, survival and migration of cells.
