Bioinspired non-expansive biodegradable matrix promotes blood vessel organoid development for ischemic stroke repair

ABSTRACT: Tissue engineering-based vascular reconstruction represents a promising therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. However, in the confined stroke cavity, conventional implants are unable to simultaneously provide swelling-resistant support and growth-permissive internal space, which are crucial for effective revascularization. To address this limitation, we develop a bioinspired, non-expansive biodegradable matrix (NEBM) through covalent/non-covalent assembly of commercially available, clinical-grade natural polymers. We show that NEBM recapitulates key features of brain ECM—including porous microstructure and tissue-matched stiffness—to deliver structural stability. Moreover, its progressively degradable structure establishes a dynamic remodeling niche that directs cellular behavior toward promoting angiogenesis. Compared to commercial Matrigel-based matrix, NEBM fosters blood vessel organoids (BVOs) development with higher vascular density, larger vessel diameters, and more distinct arterial features. In both subcutaneous and stroke transplantation models, we find that NEBM facilitates the integration of BVOs with the host vasculature. Strikingly, this revascularization in stroke cavity stimulates neurogenesis, contributing to significant functional recovery. As such, our study provides valuable guidance to design clinically translatable matrices for organ repair and regeneration in confined environments.

Systems Biology Proteomic Analysis of Cerebral Cavernous Malformation

Project description:Cerebral cavernous malformations are vascular anomalies that can cause hemorrhagic stroke. Mutations in genes encoding Krit 1 (CCM1), OSM (CCM2), and PDCD10 (CCM3) proteins cause CCM. A loss in teh expression of any of these CCM proteins disrupts normal cerebral vessel development by disrupting the cytoskeleton and thereby inhibits endothelial tube ofrmation. Examination of cellular changes based on the loss of CCM gene expression may lead to the methods for early detection and prevention of CCM associated hemorrhagic stroke.

Brain pericytes and perivascular fibroblasts are stromal progenitors with dual functions in cerebrovascular regeneration after stroke

Project description:Functional revascularization is key to stroke recovery and requires remodelling of blood vessels, around which is located the brain’s only stromal compartment. Stromal progenitor cells (SPC) form a functional grouping of cells critical for tissue regeneration following injury in many organs, yet their identity in the brain remains elusive despite implications in neovascularization and scar formation. Here we show that the perivascular niche of brain SPCs includes pericytes, venular smooth muscle cells and a distinct population of perivascular fibroblasts, that together help regenerate the cerebral microvasculature following stroke. The ischemic injury triggers amplification of pericytes and perivascular fibroblasts in the infarct region where they associate with endothelial cells inside a reactive astrocyte border. Fate-tracking of Hic1+ SPCs uncovers a transient functional and transcriptional phenotype of stroke-activated pericytes and perivascular fibroblasts, where both populations remain segregated, displaying dichotomous angiogenic and fibrogenic profiles. In the adult brain, pericytes and perivascular fibroblasts are therefore distinct subpopulations of stromal progenitors that coordinate revascularization and scar formation after injury.

Inhibition of proprotein convertase SKI-1 prevents blood vessel alteration following stroke

Project description:Neutralizing factors involved in blood vessel dysfunction offer a promising strategy for stroke recovery. Many extracellular proteins need enzymatic activation to function, and blocking this activation is an untapped approach to restoring vessel integrity. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of the extracellular protease SKI-1 with PF-429242 restores blood-vessel integrity and promotes functional recovery in both large- and small-animal models for stroke. Single-cell mRNA sequencing identified molecular signatures suggesting that PF-429242 restores the expression of genes involved in vessel integrity in endothelial cells. Moreover, we identify a mechanism whereby RGMa cleavage by SKI-1 is required for RGMa to interact with Neogenin and alter vessel integrity. Either preventing RGMa cleavage or deleting Neogenin on endothelial cells reduced blood vessel dysfunction, increased tissue preservation, and restored brain function following stroke. This work identifies a much-needed therapeutic strategy which restores blood vessel integrity and functionality, showing efficacy in small- and large-animals.

A proteomics resource for human iPSC-derived endothelial cells (iEC), smooth muscle cells (iSMC), pericytes (iPC) and astrocytes (iAS) in comparison to iPSCs and human primary cells - technical replicates

Project description:Function and integrity of the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) is crucial for brain homeostasis, and its malfunction critically contributes to neurovascular and neurodegenerative disorders, including cerebral small vessel disease (SVD), a common cause of stroke and vascular dementia. So far, mechanistic studies on BBB function have been mostly conducted in mice and non-physiological in vitro models, which recapitulate disease features, but often lack complex phenotypes, have limited translatability to humans, and pose challenges for drug discovery. Therefore, we aimed to establish a fully iPSC-derived 3D model of the human blood-brain-barrier. To characterize and validate our somatic cell differentiation protocols we compared our iPSC-derived cells with commercially available human primary cells: brain microvascular endothelial cells (pEC), human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), brain vascular pericytes (pPC), brain vascular smooth muscle cells (pSMC) and midbrain astrocytes (pAS).

Inhibition of Notch4 with Novel Neutralizing Antibodies Reduces Tumor Growth in Multiple Tumor Types and Targets Endothelium and Tumor Associated Macrophages in a Mouse Breast Cancer Model [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Endothelial Notch signaling is critical for tumor angiogenesis. Notch1 blockade reduces tumor vessel function but causes vascular dysfunction, hypoxia, and gastrointestinal toxicity. Notch4 expression is restricted to developing vasculature, where it promotes angiogenesis. Unlike other Notch proteins, Notch4 has rarely been targeted therapeutically. We developed highly specific Notch4-blocking antibodies, 6-3-A6 and humanized E7011, allowing therapeutic targeting of Notch4 in tumor models. E7011 treatment significantly delayed tumor growth and impaired tumor vessel perfusion in mouse models of breast, skin, and lung tumors. In a mouse orthotopic breast cancer model, Notch4 expression was confined to endothelial cells, but E7011 treatment significantly increased tumor-associated macrophages and increased macrophage expression of anti-tumor genes. Liposomal clodronate-mediated macrophage depletion reversed the anti-tumor effects of E7011, demonstrating that Notch4 supports tumor growth via angiocrine signaling to tumor macrophages. We conclude that targeting Notch4 alters tumor vessel function and tumor associated macrophage phenotype, leading to tumor inhibition.

Plasma Exosomal Proteomic Analysis between Moyamoya Disease and Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease.

Project description:Moyamoya disease (MMD) and atherosclerosis (ICAD) are both common causes of chronic intracranial vascular occlusion. Surgical revascularization is the preferred procedure for MMD but is not recommended for ICAD, and may be related to vascular reserve capacity, however, the precise reason is not fully understood. Previous studies showed exosomes could regulate revascularization, so we hypothesize plasma exosomal proteins play critical roles in MMD during revascularization. Quantitative proteomics technique and bioinformatics method were used to identify potential key plasma exosomal proteins for revascularization in MMD.
