Immunohistochemical distribution of Plexin A4 in the adult rat central nervous system

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010
PlexinA4 is the latest member to be identified of the plexin A subfamily, critical transducers of class 3 semaphorin signaling as co-receptors to neuropilins 1 and 2.

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Aptamer‐Based Delivery Systems for VEGF and NGF Modulation in Ocular Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Aptamer‐based delivery systems targeting NGF and VEGF hold significant potential for precise and sustained treatment of complex diseases affecting both the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. This review critically summarizes current strategies for NGF and VEGF delivery as well as VEGF sequestration, providing a clinical perspective on how ...

Semaphorin 3E and plexin-D1 control vascular pattern independently of neuropilins

open access: yes, 2005
The development of a patterned vasculature is essential for normal organogenesis. We found that signaling by semaphorin 3E (Sema3E) and its receptor plexin-D1 controls endothelial cell positioning and the patterning of the developing vasculature in the ...

The reception and the party after: how vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 explores cytoplasmic space

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2011
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) regulate blood and lymph vessel formation through activation of the type V receptor tyrosine kinases VEGFR-1, -2 and -3.

DAMP Laden Extracellular Vesicles From the Airways of Patients With Severe SARS‐CoV‐2 Respiratory Infection Compromise Inflammation and Cellular Metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
Extracellular vesicles from severe COVID‐19 airways carry depleted miRNAs and elevated DAMPs, reprogramming monocytes toward senescence, impaired metabolism, and predominantly reduced cytokine responses. However, they drive excess IL‐8 production, amplifying neutrophil recruitment and dysfunctional inflammation across the respiratory tract.

From Theory to Practice: Which Biomarkers Are Ready for Predicting Response in Advanced HCC?

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Systemic therapies for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have expanded considerably with the advent of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors and immunotherapy–anti‐angiogenic combinations. However, despite this therapeutic diversification, first‐line treatment selection remains largely empirical, as few biomarkers are ...

Neuropilins in Development and Disease of the Nervous System

open access: yes, 2015
Neuropilins are highly conserved, single-pass transmembrane proteins specific to vertebrates that were originally identified as adhesion molecules in the nervous system. They are best known as the ligand-binding subunit of the class 3 semaphorin receptor,

Semaphorin signaling in vertebrate neural circuit assembly

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012
Neural circuit formation requires the coordination of many complex developmental processes. First, neurons project axons over long distances to find their final targets and then establish appropriate connectivity essential for the formation of neuronal ...
