VEGFA and neoplasm: Based on the well-established role of VEGF in angiogenesis and tumor pathogenesis, our preliminary data for the mouse models of experimental asthma in Sema4A−/− and VEGF tg/Sema4A−/− mice, and the discussed above publications on the Sema4A inhibitory role in VEGF-induced angiogenesis, we suggest that Sema4A may act as a tumor suppressor interfering at least with three critical pathways in tumor development, progression, and metastasis: (1) immune cell activation and function; (2) inflammation; and (3) angiogenesis.
