Ephs and ephrins are membrane-bound proteins that Interact to modulate axon growth and neuronal function We tested the hypothesis that eph/ephrin interactions affected the growth and function of vascular sympathetic innervation Using RT PCR analyses we detected both classes of ephs (A and B) and both classes of ephrins (A and B) in sympathetic ganglia from neonatal and adult rats Both classes of ephs (A and B) and both classes of ephrins (A and B) bound to the cell bodies and neurites of dissociated postganglionic sympathetic neurons Messenger RNAs encoding for both classes of ephs (A and B) and both classes of ephrins (A and B) were also detected in sympathetically innervated arteries from neonatal and adult rats These data suggest that ephrins/ephs on nerve fibers of postganglionic sympathetic neurons could inter ict with ephs/ephrins on cells in Innervated arteries We found that ephA4 reduced reinnervation of denervated femoral arteries Reinnervation in the presence of ephA4-Fc (38 9 +/- 6 6%) was significantly less than that in the presence of IgG-Fc (62 +/- 10% n = 5 p
