Disease relevance of SEMA4A

To investigate its association with human retinal degeneration, mutation screening of the SEMA4A gene was carried out on 190 unrelated patients suffering from a variety of eye diseases [1].

High impact information on SEMA4A

A short course of treatment using rifampin, isoniazid and ethambutol was then devised, the method depending on the severity of the disease using the Semb classification [2].
A pioneer in Norwegian gastroenterology has died (Lars S Semb) [3].
