Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - EFNB2 is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 140 kDa. - It belongs to the Eph receptor family, which are involved in cell adhesion, migration, and signaling. - It is expressed in high levels in various tissues, including the cardiovascular system, central nervous system, and skin. **Pathways and functions:** - EFNB2 signaling is involved in the regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process where epithelial cells lose their epithelial characteristics and acquire mesenchymal properties. - It plays a key role in the development and maintenance of blood vessels, including the formation of new blood vessels in embryonic and adult tissues. - In endothelial cells, EFNB2 signaling is crucial for the regulation of vascular permeability, cell migration, and angiogenesis. - It is also involved in the development and function of lymphoid organs, where it helps to regulate the differentiation of lymphoid cells. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the EFNB2 gene have been linked to several human diseases, including liver disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. - Dysregulation of EFNB2 signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis of these diseases, suggesting that targeting EFNB2 could be a potential therapeutic strategy. **Overall,** EFNB2 is a critical cell surface protein that plays a critical role in the development, maintenance, and function of various tissues and organs in the human body. Its dysregulation has been linked to several human diseases, highlighting its importance in human health.
