| Immunopharmacology Comments |
| Semaphorin 4D (Sema4D) is an important mediator of the movement and differentiation of multiple cell types, including immune cells [6-7], vascular cells [9], and cells of the nervous system [4]. For example, in the immune system, Sema4D activates B cells and dendritic cells through interaction with CD72 (HGNC ID 1696; P21854) [2-3], and is reported to regulate γδ T cells by binding plexin B2 (PLXNB2; O15031) which contributes to skin wound healing [8]. Experimental evidence using patient-derived cells has identified soluble Sema4D, shed from CD15+ granulocytes, as a causal factor in the promotion of autoreactive antibody secretion by B cells that leads to the development of the autoimmune skin condition bullous pemphigoid [5]. |
