Other Information

**Key Characteristics** VAV3 is a small GEF that belongs to the Vav family, which includes Vav1, Vav2, and Vav3. It is characterized by its ability to exchange GDP for GTP, activating downstream effectors of the small GTPase family, particularly Rho GTPases. VAV3 is highly expressed in various tissues and cell types, including the nervous system, immune cells, and epithelial cells. Its expression is also specific to certain cell types, such as syncytiotrophoblast cells and Purkinje cells. **Pathways and Functions** VAV3 has been implicated in multiple signaling pathways, including: 1. **Rho GTPase cycle**: VAV3 activates Rho GTPases, which play critical roles in regulating cell migration, adhesion, and cytoskeleton dynamics. 2. **B cell receptor signaling pathway**: VAV3 regulates B cell receptor signaling, leading to the activation of downstream effectors, including phospholipase C and protein kinase B. 3. **Angiogenesis**: VAV3 has been shown to promote angiogenesis by regulating the expression of pro-angiogenic factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). 4. **Immune responses**: VAV3 is involved in regulating immune responses, including the activation of immune cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages. 5. **Cytoskeleton dynamics**: VAV3 regulates actin dynamics, which is essential for cell migration, adhesion, and phagocytosis. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of VAV3 has been linked to various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer**: VAV3 is overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer, and is associated with poor prognosis. 2. **Autoimmune disorders**: VAV3 is implicated in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, where it regulates immune cell activation and proliferation. 3. **Infectious diseases**: VAV3 is involved in regulating immune responses to infections, including Leishmania and HIV. 4. **Neurological disorders**: VAV3 is implicated in neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, where it regulates neuronal survival and migration. In conclusion, VAV3 is a multifunctional GEF that plays critical roles in regulating various cellular processes, including cell signaling, migration, and survival. Its dysregulation has been linked to various diseases, highlighting the importance of VAV3 as a therapeutic target in cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases.
