The SEMA3A gene is a member of the [[semaphorin]] family and encodes a protein with an Ig-like [[Immunoglobulin C2-set domain|C2-type]] (immunoglobulin-like) domain, a [[PSI domain]] and a [[Sema domain]]. This secreted Sema3A protein can function as either a [[Chemotaxis#Chemoattractants and chemorepellents|chemorepulsive]] agent, inhibiting axonal outgrowth, or as a [[Chemotaxis#Chemoattractants and chemorepellents|chemoattractive]] agent, stimulating the growth of apical [[dendrite]]s. In both cases, the protein is vital for normal neuronal pattern development.<ref name="entrez" />

==References==
Semaphorin-3A is secreted by neurons and surrounding tissue to guide migrating cells and [[axon]]s in the developing nervous system.  Axon pathfinding is the process by which neurons follow very precise paths, sends out axons, and react to specific chemical environments to reach the correct endpoint. The guidance is critical for the precise formation of neurons and the surrounding vasculature. Guidance cues, such as Sema3A, induce the collapse and paralysis of neuronal growth cones during development of the nervous system.

This guidance cue for [[axon]]s of [[neuron]]s is signaled through receptor complexes containing Neuropilin-1 ([[NRP1]]) and a co-receptor.<ref name="pmid18039974">{{cite journal | vauthors = Moret F, Renaudot C, Bozon M, Castellani V | title = Semaphorin and neuropilin co-expression in motoneurons sets axon sensitivity to environmental semaphorin sources during motor axon pathfinding | journal = Development | volume = 134 | issue = 24 | pages = 4491–501 | date = December 2007 | pmid = 18039974 | doi = 10.1242/dev.011452 | url =  }}</ref><ref name="pmid17428830">{{cite journal | vauthors = Vieira JM, Schwarz Q, Ruhrberg C | title = Selective requirements for NRP1 ligands during neurovascular patterning | journal = Development | volume = 134 | issue = 10 | pages = 1833–43 | date = May 2007 | pmid = 17428830 | pmc = 2702678 | doi = 10.1242/dev.002402 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Sharma A, Verhaagen J, Harvey AR | title = Receptor complexes for each of the Class 3 Semaphorins | journal = Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience | volume = 6 | pages = 28 | pmid = 22783168 | pmc = 3389612 | doi = 10.3389/fncel.2012.00028 }}</ref> One of the first identified intracellular messenger required for the [[growth cone]]-collapse induced by Sema3A is the [[Collapsin response mediator protein family|CRMP]] protein called CRMP2.
 
In addition to its role in the nervous system, Sema3A also acts as an inhibitor of angiogenesis, the process by which new blood vessels develop.<ref name="pmid19809158">{{cite journal | vauthors = Maione F, Molla F, Meda C, Latini R, Zentilin L, Giacca M, Seano G, Serini G, Bussolino F, Giraudo E | title = Semaphorin 3A is an endogenous angiogenesis inhibitor that blocks tumor growth and normalizes tumor vasculature in transgenic mouse models. | journal = The Journal of Clinical Investigation | volume = 119 | issue = 11 | pages = 3356–72 | pmid = 19809158 | doi = 10.1172/JCI36308 }}</ref>
 
== Clinical significance ==
The protein Sema3A is highly expressed in scar tissue after traumatic central nervous system injuries, such as [[spinal cord injury]]. Sema3A, and the other class 3 [[semaphorin]]s, contributes to the failure of [[Neuroregeneration|neuronal regeneration]] after CNS injury by regulating axonal re-growth, [[Remyelination|re-myelination]], [[Revascularization|re-vascularisation]], and the [[immune response]].<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Mecollari|first=V|last2=Nieuwenhuis|first2=B|last3=Verhaagen|first3=J|date=2014|title=A perspective on the role of class III semaphorin signaling in central nervous system trauma|url=http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fncel.2014.00328/abstract|journal=Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience|volume=8|pages=328|doi=10.3389/fncel.2014.00328|pmc=4209881|pmid=25386118}}</ref>
 
Increased expression of Sema3A is associated with [[schizophrenia]] and is seen in a variety of human tumor cell lines. Also, aberrant release of this protein is associated with the progression of [[Alzheimer's disease]].<ref name="entrez" /><ref name="pmid15485501">{{cite journal | vauthors = Good PF, Alapat D, Hsu A, Chu C, Perl D, Wen X, Burstein DE, Kohtz DS | title = A role for semaphorin 3A signaling in degeneration of hippocampal neurons during Alzheimer's disease | journal = J.

Semaphorin-3A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEMA3A gene.[1][2][3]

Function

The SEMA3A gene is a member of the semaphorin family and encodes a protein with an Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain, a PSI domain and a Sema domain. This secreted Sema3A protein can function as either a chemorepulsive agent, inhibiting axonal outgrowth, or as a chemoattractive agent, stimulating the growth of apical dendrites. In both cases, the protein is vital for normal neuronal pattern development.[3]

Semaphorin-3A is secreted by neurons and surrounding tissue to guide migrating cells and axons in the developing nervous system. Axon pathfinding is the process by which neurons follow very precise paths, sends out axons, and react to specific chemical environments to reach the correct endpoint. The guidance is critical for the precise formation of neurons and the surrounding vasculature. Guidance cues, such as Sema3A, induce the collapse and paralysis of neuronal growth cones during development of the nervous system.

This guidance cue for axons of neurons is signaled through receptor complexes containing Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and a co-receptor.[4][5][6] One of the first identified intracellular messenger required for the growth cone-collapse induced by Sema3A is the CRMP protein called CRMP2.

In addition to its role in the nervous system, Sema3A also acts as an inhibitor of angiogenesis, the process by which new blood vessels develop.[7]

Clinical significance

The protein Sema3A is highly expressed in scar tissue after traumatic central nervous system injuries, such as spinal cord injury. Sema3A, and the other class 3 semaphorins, contributes to the failure of neuronal regeneration after CNS injury by regulating axonal re-growth, re-myelination, re-vascularisation, and the immune response.[8]

Increased expression of Sema3A is associated with schizophrenia and is seen in a variety of human tumor cell lines. Also, aberrant release of this protein is associated with the progression of Alzheimer's disease.[3][9]

Additionally, the terminal Schwann cells of ALS mice (SOD1 mutant) express Sema3A at fast-fatigable fiber neuromuscular junctions greater than wild-type mice.[10] This expression is greatest pre-symptomatically corresponding to ALS progression in which fast-fatigable fiber denervation precedes clinical symptoms.[11] Because Sema3A is involved in growth cone collapse and axon pruning and repulsion, it potentially holds a causal relationship to synaptic weakening and denervation that precedes motor neuron apoptosis in ALS.[10]
