Project description:Human VECs are categorized into two groups regarding their effects on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs):type-I, pro-proliferative VECs and type-II anti-proliferative VECs. The effects of VECs on VSMC proliferation were quantitatively assessed according to the following method: human aortic smooth muscle cells, which were stained by PKH-26 in advance, were cultured on the layer of CFSE-stained VECs, and VSMC proliferation were evaluated after four days by flow cytometry analyses using ModFit LTM-bM-^DM-" software (Verity Software House Inc., Topsham, ME). Commercially available primary human VECs including HUVEC, HAEC and HMVEC as well as the majority of endothelial progenitor cell (EPC)-derived VECs (EPCdECs), whether EPCs were obtained from adult or fetal tissues, enhanced VSMC proliferation, showing type-I phenotype. EPCdECs of minor donors including EPC1dEC suppressed VSMC proliferation, showing type-II phenotype. However, type-II VECs turned into type-I VECs after a few rounds of subcultures. Comparative analyses on gene expression profiles between type-I VECs and type-II VECs revealed that regulator of G-protein signaling 5 (RGS5) was the only gene that showed the discriminative expression pattern: high expressions in type-I VECs and low expressions in type-II VECs. Totally six samples of type-I VECs (HUVEC, HAEC, HMVEC, EPC1dEC[P12], UCEPC1dEC, EPC2dEC[P7]) and two samples of type-II VECs (EPC1dEC[P7] and EPC1dEC[P7] purchased at a different time point) were subjected to the analyses.

Project description:The lymphatic vascular system plays important roles in the maintenance of interstitial fluid pressure, the afferent immune response and the absorption of dietary lipids. However, the molecular mechanisms that control lymphatic vessel network maturation and function remain largely unknown. To identify novel players in lymphatic vessel function, we isolated pure populations of lymphatic and blood vascular endothelial cells from mouse intestine using fluorescence-activated high-speed cell sorting and performed transcriptional profiling. We found that the axonal guidance molecules semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) and Sema3D were specifically expressed by lymphatic vessels. Quantitative PCR of ex vivo isolated cells and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed these results. Importantly, we found that the semaphorin receptor neuropilin-1 (Nrp-1) is expressed on the valves of collecting lymphatic vessels. Treatment of mice in utero (E12.5-E16.5) with an antibody that blocks Sema3A binding to Nrp-1, but not with an antibody that blocks VEGFA binding to Nrp-1, resulted in abnormal development of collecting lymphatic vessels and valves, and aberrant smooth muscle cell coverage. Conversely, Sema3A-deficient mice displayed branching defects of collecting lymphatic vessels as well as impaired valve development. Together, these results reveal an unanticipated role of Sema3A/Nrp-1 signaling in the maturation of the lymphatic vascular network. Colon single-cell suspensions were prepared by a fast protocol that minimizes the RNA degradation. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) was used to sort blood vascular endothelial cells (BEC) and lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC). 4 animal-matched pairs of LEC and BEC were chosen based on the quality of extracted and amplified material to provide homogenous groups of biological replicates. This gave 8 samples to analyze. Samples present LEC and BEC isolated from 4 healthy normal mice. The 4 mice used present the 4 biological replicates.

Project description:Herein, we report viral interferon regulatory factor 3 (vIRF3) as a pro-angiogenic factor together with HDAC5 that coordinates with LEC transcriptome, thus resulting in hyper-sprouting formation and ultimately leading to abnormal lymphangiogenesis. Overexpression of vIRF3 in LECs but not blood endothelial cells (BECs) exhibited a unique KSHV-associated angiogenic effect, evidenced by elongated spindle shape, sprouting, and tube formation. Furthermore, using vIRF3 knockout recombinant KSHV, we confirmed that vIRF3 is a critical factor of KSHV-mediated lymphangiogenesis in primary LECs.

Project description:Objective was to uncover the transcriptional changes occuring in melanoma-associated LECs relative to LECs of naïve skin. To investigate the transcriptional changes in LECs during tumor development, RNA was extracted from LECs sorted from naïve skin and BPC (Tyr::Cre-ER, BRafV600E) murine melanomas and bulk RNA-seq performed. Naïve skin LECs were collected from 3 mice and tumor-associated LECs collected from 4 mice.

Project description:Human VECs are categorized into two groups according to their effects on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (in vitro) and the induction of stenosis in endothelia-removed arteries after transplantation (In vivo): pro-proliferative/pro-stenotic (Type-I) virsus anti-proliferative/anti-stenotic (Type-II) VECs. Since RGS5, which is a master gene responsible for aging- and oxidative stress-dependent Type-II to Type-I conversion, is the only protein-coding gene that shows differential expression profiles between Type-I and Type-II VECs, non-coding RNAs including miRNA should be working at the downstream of RGS5 for quality control of VECs.

Project description:RhoB null mice show decreases in pathological angiogenesis in the ischemic retina and reduces angiogenesis in response to cutaneous wounding, but enhances lymphangiogenesis following both dermal wounding and inflammatory challenge. We used microarrays to link these unique and opposing roles of RhoB in blood versus lymphatic vasculatures to RhoB/VEZF1-mediated gene regulation in primary human blood versus lymphatic endothelial cells. Pure populations of human primary BVECs and LVECs silenced for RhoB or VEZF1 were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We extracted these cells from human male foreskins from at least four individuals and purified them using Dynabeads associated with vascular markers (CD31 and Podoplanin).

Project description:EPC-derived VECs (EPCdECs) are categorized into two group according to their effects on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells: type-I pro-proliferative VECs and type-II anti-proliferative VECs. Type-II EPCdECs were converted to type-I VECs by repetitive subcultures. Not only subculture-dependent cellular stresses but also donor differences greatly affect the phenotype determination of VECs. By comparing the gene expression profiles of type-II EPCdEC of the first donor (EPC1dEC) at early passage and those of type-II EPC1dEC at late passage and EPCdEC of the second donor at early passage, characteristic gene expression patterns that discriminate Type-I and type-II EPCdECs will be comprehended. Totally three samples of type-I EPC-derived VECs (EPC1dEC[P12], EPC2dEC[P7]) and type-II EPC-derived VEC (EPC1dEC[P7]) were subjected to the analyses.
