Facts about Semaphorin-5A.
In glioma cells, SEMA5A stimulation of PLXNB3 leads to the disassembly of F-actin stress fibers, disruption of focal adhesions and mobile collapse as well as inhibition of cell migration and invasion through ARHGDIA-mediated inactivation of RAC1. May promote angiogenesis by increasing endothelial cell proliferation and migration and inhibiting apoptosis.
