Neuropilin-1 Suppresses Tumorigenic Properties in a Human Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Cell Line Lacking Neuropilin-1 Coreceptors
1 May 2005
Abstract excerpt
Neuropilin-1 (NRP-1) was first described as a coreceptor implicated in neuronal guidance that bound members of the semaphorin/collapsin family. NRP-1 is also expressed in endothelial cells and is believed to promote angiogenesis by acting as a coreceptor with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 2. Recent studies suggest that NRP-1 can function through both a VEGF-dependent and VEGF-independent...
