In the absence of Netrin-1, UNC5B induces apoptosis that is blocked upon Netrin-1 binding. Here, the authors identify an UNC5B splicing isoform (called UNC5B-delta8) expressed exclusively by ECs and generated through exon skipping by NOVA2, an alternative splicing factor regulating vascular development. UNC5B-delta8 is a constitutively pro-apoptotic splicing isoform insensitive to Netrin-1 and required for specific blood vessel development (in zebrafish) in an apoptosis-dependent manner. Like NOVA2, UNC5B-delta8 is aberrantly expressed in colon cancer vasculature where its expression correlates with tumor angiogenesis and poor patient outcome.
