NRP1 and systemic sclerosis: Following previous evidence of an association between circulating neurovascular guidance molecules and SSc disturbed angiogenesis, here, we measured the levels of soluble neuropilin 1 (sNRP1), semaphorin 3E (Sema3E), and Slit2 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in serum samples from a large case series of 166 SSc patients vs. 110 healthy controls.
