Background
RGMA Protein, a member of the repulsive guidance molecule (RGM) family, plays diverse roles in both the developing and adult nervous system. It governs cephalic neural tube closure, restrains neurite outgrowth, inhibits cortical neuron branching, and modulates the formation of mature synapses. Upon binding to its receptor NEO1/neogenin, RGMA triggers the activation of the RHOA-ROCK1/Rho-kinase signaling pathway through the UNC5B-ARHGEF12/LARG-PTK2/FAK1 cascade, resulting in the collapse of the neuronal growth cone and inhibition of neurite outgrowth. Additionally, RGMA's interaction with NEO1/neogenin influences the HRAS-PTK2/FAK1-AKT1 pathway, leading to HRAS inactivation. Acting as a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) coreceptor, RGMA may signal through SMAD1, SMAD5, and SMAD8. Its intricate network of interactions, including those with NEO1, BMP2, and BMP4, underscores RGMA's significance in orchestrating key molecular events essential for nervous system development and function.
