tumor  
dissociation of EphB2 signaling pathways enables the selective inhibition of the mitogenic effect without affecting the tumor suppressor function and identifies a pharmacological strategy to suppress adenoma growth
miscelleaneouspain 
ephrinB2 siRNA could be a potential therapeutic agent for neuropathic pain
ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
deletions of the gene reveal its essential roles for conduit vessel development in mice, suggesting similar functions during human vascular development and deregulation in vascular malformations
