EFNB2

EFNB2

A gene on chromosome 13q33 that encodes ephrin-B2, a cell surface GPI-bound ligand for the Eph family of tyrosine kinase receptors, which are crucial for migration, repulsion and adhesion during neuronal, vascular and epithelial development. EFNB2 binds to EPHA3, EPHA4, and EPHB4 receptors; with EPHB4 it plays a central role in heart morphogenesis and angiogenesis by regulating cell adhesion and migration. EPHB4-mediated forward signalling controls cellular repulsion and segregation from EFNB2-expressing cells. It may play a role in constraining the orientation of longitudinally projecting axons.

The DEGs positively regulated by DE-lncRNAs (e.g., Efna1 and Efnb2) were mainly enriched in a set of biology processes about the development of blood vessel, such as vasculature development and blood vessel morphogenesis (Table 2).
The DEGs positively regulated by DE-lncRNAs were mainly enriched in the functions about the development of blood vessel (e.g., Efna1 and Efnb2), as well as the pathways of cholesterol biosynthesis (e.g., Cyp51 and Fdps) and elastic fibre formation (e.g., Fbln1, Fbln2, and Fbln5).
The function of blood vessel development was significantly enriched by a set of DE-lncRNA genes, such as Efna1 and Efnb2. During aging, angiogenesis is delayed, and capillary density as well as newly deposited collagen is decreased [36].
