Disease relevance of SEMA3F

 

High impact information on SEMA3F

 

Chemical compound and disease context of SEMA3F

  • Thus, in this in vivo lung cancer model, SEMA3F has potent antitumor effects, which may impinge on activated integrin and MAPK signaling [1].
 

Biological context of SEMA3F

  • In the present report, we investigated the attractive/repulsive effects of SEMA3F on cell migration when cells were grown in a three-dimensional system and exposed to a SEMA3F gradient [2].
  • SEMA3F, isolated from a 3p21.3 deletion, has antitumor activity in transfected cells, and protein expression correlates with tumor stage and histology [8].
  • By contrast, only 30-40% reduction in colony formation was seen after the transfection of SEMA3F or SEMA3B variants carrying lung cancer-associated single amino acid missense mutations [6].
  • Two cDNAs corresponding to genes encoded on this P1 clone, semaphorin 3F (SEMA3F) and N23, were tested for their effects on in vitro and in vivo growth characteristics after transfection into mouse A9 cells [9].
  • Moreover, SEMA3F also functioned to block apoptosis of transfected A9 cells treated with Taxol or Adriamycin [9].
 

Anatomical context of SEMA3F

  • Using retroviral infections, we established stable SEMA3F transfectants in two NSCLC cell lines, NCI-H157 and NCI-H460 [1].
  • SEMA3F inhibited cell attachment and spreading as evidenced by loss of lamellipodia extensions, membrane ruffling, and cell-cell contacts, with cells eventually rounding-up and detaching [8].
  • In normal lung, SEMA3F was found in all epithelial cells at the cytoplasmic membrane and, to a lesser extent, in the cytoplasm [10].
