Translational regulation of SND1 governs endothelial homeostasis during stress.

ABSTRACT: Translational control shapes the proteome and is particularly important in regulating gene expression under stress. A key source of endothelial stress is treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), which lowers cancer mortality but increases cardiovascular mortality. Using a human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cell (hiPSC-EC) model of sunitinib-induced vascular dysfunction combined with ribosome profiling, we assessed the role of translational control in hiPSC-ECs in response to stress. We identified staphylococcal nuclease and tudor domain-containing protein 1 (SND1) as a sunitinib-dependent translationally repressed gene. SND1 translational repression was mediated by the mTORC1/4E-BP1 pathway. SND1 inhibition led to endothelial dysfunction, whereas SND1 OE prote
