    basic FUNCTION
  • may be involved in development
  • can function as potent anti-tumorigenic agents (but is required expression of appropriate semaphorin receptors by tumor cells) (Kigel 2008)
  • novel role of SEMA3E-PLXND1 function in modulating angiogenesis via a VEGFA-induced feedback mechanism (pMID: 21724832)
  • acts as a negative regulator of macrophage migration, which may promote macrophage retention and chronic inflammation
  • SEMA3E, SEMA3D direct endothelial motility through distinct molecular signaling pathways
  • SEMA3E controls cell migration and invasiveness in cancer cells
  • SEMA3E could be considered an essential regulatory mediator involved in modulation of neutrophil migration throughout the course of neutrophilic inflammation
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell communication
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS development
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
  • SEMA3E-PLXND1 signaling is involved in the development of choroidal neovascularization (CNV)
  • a component
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • ligand of PLXND1 (interacting during the formation of proprioceptive sensory–motor reflex circuits) (Pecho-Vrieseling 2009)
  • IQSEC1 mediates SEMA3E-induced ARF6 activation in endothelial cells
  • SEMA3E acts as a chemoattractant for macrophages, with TP53-induced upregulation of SEMA3E expression provoking adipose tissue inflammation and systemic insulin resistance in association with dietary obesity
  • SH3BP1 mediates SEMA3E-induced cell collapse through interaction with PLXND1 and regulation RAC1 activity
  • SEMA3E is an essential gene for GNRH1 neuron development
  • SEMA3E/PLXND1 modulates Immunological synapse (IS) formation and Ag-scanning activities of thymocytes within thymic tissues
  • RORA is a novel transcriptional regulator of SEMA3E-mediated neurovascular coupling in pathological retinal angiogenesis
