Abstract
Eph receptors have been the subject of intense research since their discovery. Their widespread pattern of expression, involvement in a variety of important cellular phenomena and unique mode of action have stimulated interest in their role in health and disease across biological and medical domains. However, the function of Ephs in nervous system development and plasticity remains the best characterised. Recent advances suggest that Ephs play an important role in the development of brain pathologies. This review focuses on their basic structure and function and discusses the latest research on their role in neurological diseases.
