Netrin-1 (NTN1)

Target
NTN1
Molecular classification
Laminin-related secreted protein
01

Overview

Netrin-1 is a multifunctional secreted protein essential for guiding developing neurons/axons across CNS midlines but also plays major roles outside the nervous system—including angiogenesis organ morphogenesis inflammation regulation—with diverse effects mediated through specific membrane-bound receptors such as DCC UNC5 neogenin DSCAM.
