By using MALDI-MSI, this study simultaneously shows the distribution and spatial localization of ephrin A1, as well as additional cardiac proteins, thus offering valuable information for the elucidation of molecular partners, mediators, and targets of ephrin A1 action in cardiac muscle.

EphA2 mAb treatment could partially inhibit LPSinduced inactivation of EphBEphrin B3 signalling, while Ephrin B3 overexpression could abrogate LPSinduced activation of EphA2Ephrin A1 signalling. EphB1/Ephrin B3 signalling may antagonise the EphA2/Ephrin A1dependent pathway following LPS treatment.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
