Résumé

Semaphorins and Plexins constitute one of the largest family of guidance molecules and receptors involved in setting critical biological steps for central nervous system development. The role of these molecules in axonal development has been extensively characterized but Semaphorins and Plexins are also involved in a variety of other developmental processes, spanning from cell polarization to migration, laminar segregation and neuronal maturation. In this review, we aim to gather discoveries carried in the field of neurodevelopment over the last decade, during which Semaphorin/Plexin complexes have emerged as key regulators of neurogenesis, neural cell migration and adult gliogenesis. As well, we report mechanisms that brought a better understanding of axonal midline crossing.
