Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 hour at 20°C; antigen retrieval was not performed. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100) for 12 hours at 4°C. A Biotin-conjugated Rabbit anti-rat polyclonal (1/200) was used as the secondary antibody.

Supplementary information

The Eph receptor B4 also known as EphB4 or HTK is a protein belonging to the Ephrin receptor subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases. The receptor has a molecular weight of about 120 kDa. EphB4 typically interacts with its binding partner ephrin-B2 facilitating bidirectional signaling. These complexes reside in the cell membrane and are mainly found in vascular endothelial cells and various tissues including the heart lungs and skin. Notably this receptor plays a role in cellular processes like cell migration and adhesion.
Biological function summary

The Eph receptor B4 is a significant regulator of angiogenesis and vascular development. It forms a critical component of a signaling complex that also includes ephrin-B2. During embryonic development EphB4's interaction with ephrin-B2 guides the proper formation and organization of blood vessels. In adult organisms it remains active in maintaining vascular homeostasis. Additionally this receptor impacts neuronal development and repair through modulating axon guidance and synaptic plasticity.

Pathways

EphB4 engages in various cellular signaling cascades. It features prominently within pathways governing angiogenesis and cell adhesion. EphB4 acts as a central player in the VEGF signaling pathway modulating endothelial cell behavior. The protein’s pathways frequently intersect with other proteins such as FAK and Src influencing cell motility and morphology. Furthermore in the ephrin receptor pathway it cross-talks with other Eph receptors like EphA4 assisting in diverse biological functions.

Abnormal Eph receptor B4 activity associates with several pathological conditions. Dysregulation often links to cancer due to its role in neovascularization and tumor progression. Overexpression of EphB4 in tumors like breast and colorectal cancer suggests a contribution to malignancy by supporting angiogenesis and tumor growth. In vascular disorders impaired EphB4-ephrin-B2 signaling may lead to defects in blood vessel formation. Additionally alterations in this receptor are observed in neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's where EphB4 interacts with tau protein-modifying vascular and neuronal deficiencies.

Target data

Receptor tyrosine kinase which binds promiscuously transmembrane ephrin-B family ligands residing on adjacent cells, leading to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. The signaling pathway downstream of the receptor is referred to as forward signaling while the signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is referred to as reverse signaling. Together with its cognate ligand/functional ligand EFNB2 it is involved in the regulation of cell adhesion and migration, and plays a central role in heart morphogenesis, angiogenesis and blood vessel remodeling and permeability. EPHB4-mediated forward signaling controls cellular repulsion and segregation from EFNB2-expressing cells.
