Abstract 5348: SEMA3C signaling confers resistance to Wnt Inhibition in glioblastoma
Abstract Background: Wnt signaling is widely dysregulated in cancer. The therapeutic potential of Wnt inhibitors appears promising in preclinical studies. However, they have uniformly failed clinical trials. How cancer cells develop Wnt inhibitor resistance is poorly understood. Current Wnt inhibitors are designed targeting either ligand

Whole-genome sequencing identifies functional noncoding variation in SEMA3C that cosegregates with dyslexia in a multigenerational family [PDF]
AbstractDyslexia is a common heritable developmental disorder involving impaired reading abilities. Its genetic underpinnings are thought to be complex and heterogeneous, involving common and rare genetic variation. Multigenerational families segregating apparent monogenic forms of language-related disorders can provide useful entrypoints into ...

The axonal guidance cue semaphorin 3C contributes to alveolar growth and repair.
Lung diseases characterized by alveolar damage such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in premature infants and emphysema lack efficient treatments. Understanding the mechanisms contributing to normal and impaired alveolar growth and repair may identify
