Semaphorin II can function as a selective inhibitor of specific synaptic arborizations

open access: yes, 1995
Previous studies showed that grasshopper semaphorin I, a transmembrane semaphorin, functions in vivo to steer a pair of growth cones, prevent defasciculation, and inhibit branching; and that chick collapsin, a secreted semaphorin, can function in vitro ...

Semaphorin 7a Promotes Spreading and Dendricity in Human Melanocytes through β1-Integrins

open access: yes, 2008
Described as secreted and membrane-bound proteins important for neural pathfinding, the class of proteins called Semaphorins are expressed in multiple tissue types and are involved in diverse biologic processes. In this study, we describe the function of

Attempts to block the MTRAP-Semaphorin-7A interaction has no effect on erythrocyte invasion.

open access: yes, 2012
(A) Recombinant Semaphorin-7A and MTRAP have no inhibitory effect on erythrocyte invasion. Purified pentamerised Semaphorin-7A or MTRAP were added to P.

Identification of a member of mouse semaphorin family

open access: yes, 1995
Grasshopper semaphorin I (Sema I) and its related proteins, chick collapsin and mouse Sema III contribute to the axon guidance by their repellent actions [5,9,12].

Characterization of Semaphorin 5B in avian visual system development

open access: yes, 2006
The development of the avian retinotectal projection is a well established model for the study of axon guidance and topographic map formation. Here we employed irnrnunoflourescence to demonstrate that the guidance molecule, Semaphorin 5B, is expressed ...

The Transmembrane Protein Semaphorin 6A Repels Embryonic Sympathetic Axons

open access: yes, 2000
Semaphorin 6A (Sema6A) (previously named Semaphorin VIa) is the originally described member of the vertebrate semaphorin class 6, a group of transmembrane semaphorins homologous to the insect semaphorin class 1.

A Pilot Study of the Role of Semaphorin 4A (sema4A) and 3C (sema3C) in Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC)

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background/Objectives: Bladder cancer is a very important issue in contemporary urology. The aim of this pilot study was to assess for the first time the clinical utility of semaphorin 3C (sema3C) and 4A (sema4A) in patients with non-muscle-invasive ...
