General description

In the fetal samples, Plexin A2 (PLXNA2) has prominent expression in fetal neural tissue.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human PLXNA2

Application

Anti-PLXNA2 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.0μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Plexin A2 (PLXNA2) is a coreceptor for semaphorins that are involved in immune responses, activation of immune cells and axon guidance during neuronal development. PLXNA2 acts as a receptor of Sema6A and has a role in limiting adult axon growth and recovery post trauma. PLXNA2 is up-regulated in metastatic prostate cancer tumors and breast cancer. Copy number variation in PLXNA2 is associated with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), a cyanotic congenital heart disease. Dysregulation of PLXNA2-semaphorin signaling results in congenital heart disease, characteristic of cardiac outflow tract (OFT) defect. PLXNA2 is up-regulated by osteogenic factor BMP2. Up-regulated PLXNA2 mediates osteoblast differentiation by regulation of RUNX2 (Runt-related transcription factor 2) expression.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the major public health problems in Western countries. Recently, the TMPRSS2:ERG gene fusion, which results in the aberrant expression of the transcription factor ERG, has been shown to be the most common gene rearrangement

The imbalance between bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-forming osteoblasts often leads to bone destructive diseases such as osteoporosis. In contrast to the development of several antiresorptive agents for osteoporosis therapy, discovery of anabolic drugs has been difficult because of an insufficient

Axonal growth from both intact and severed fibers is limited after adult mammalian CNS injury. Myelin proteins contribute to inhibition of axonal growth. Semaphorin6A protein inhibits the extension of developing axons and is highly expressed in adult oligodendrocytes. This expression
