Background
EFNB3, or ephrin B3, is a member of the ephrin gene family, which encodes a cell surface GPI-bound ligand for the Eph family of tyrosine kinase receptors. EFNB3 is highly expressed in the brain and interacts with GRIP1 and GRIP2, which are key molecules in EFNB reverse signalingEFNB3 is highly expressed in the brain and interacts with GRIP1 and GRIP2, which are key molecules in EFNB reverse signaling. EFNB3 has also been implicated in blood pressure control and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) contractility. Studies have shown that EFNB3 deletion can lead to increased blood pressure in a sex-dependent manner, with vascular smooth muscle being the target tissue mediating this effect (PMID: 26851246).
