Project description:Molecular pathways regulating the development of arterial and venous endothelial cells (ECs) are now well-established, but control of parallel arterial-venous (A-V) alignment is unclear. We report that arterial-venous alignment in the skin is determined by apelin receptor (APJ) expression in venous ECs. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in endothelial cells that has relationship with the deficient of APJ. Endothelial cells were marked and isolated by Fluorescence-activated cell sorting in Trizol.

Project description:Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVM) are characterized by enlarged blood vessels, which direct blood through arteriovenous AV shunts, bypassing the artery-capillary-vein network and disrupting blood flow. Clinically, bAVM treatments are invasive and not routinely applicable. There is critical need to understand mechanisms of bAVM pathologies and develop pharmacological therapies. We used an in vivo mouse model of Rbpj-mediated bAVM, which develops pathologies in the early postnatal period and an siRNA in vitro system to knockdown RBPJ in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (ECs). To understand molecular events regulated by endothelial Rbpj, we conducted RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analyses from isolated brain ECs. Rbpj-deficient (mutant) brain ECs acquired abnormally rounded shape (with no change to cell area), altered basement membrane dynamics, and increased EC density along AV shunts, compared to controls, suggesting impaired remodeling of neonatal brain vasculature. Consistent with impaired EC dynamics, we found increased Cdc42 activity in isolated mutant ECs, suggesting that Rbpj regulates small GTPase-mediated cellular functions in brain ECs. siRNA treated, RBPJ-deficient human brain ECs displayed increased Cdc42 activity, disrupted cell polarity and focal adhesion properties, and impaired migration in vitro. RNA-Seq analysis from isolated brain ECs identified differentially expressed genes in mutants, including Apelin, which encodes a ligand for G protein-coupled receptor signaling known to influence small GTPase activity. ChIP-Seq analysis revealed chromatin loci occupied by Rbpj in brain ECs that corresponded to G-protein and Apelin signaling molecules. In vivo administration of a competitive peptide antagonist against the Apelin receptor (Aplnr/Apj) attenuated Cdc42 activity and restored EC morphology and AV connection diameter in Rbpj-mutant brain vessels. Conclusions: Our data suggest that endothelial Rbpj promotes rearrangement of brain ECs during cerebrovascular remodeling, through Apelin/Apj-mediated small GTPase activity, and prevents bAVM. By inhibiting Apelin/Apj signaling in vivo, we demonstrated pharmacological prevention of Rbpj mediated bAVM.

Project description:The vascular system is locally specialized to accommodate widely varying blood flow and pressure and the distinct needs of individual tissues. The endothelial cells (ECs) that line the lumens of blood and lymphatic vessels play an integral role in the regional specialization of vascular structure and physiology. However, our understanding of EC diversity is limited. To explore EC specialization on a global scale, we used DNA microarrays to determine the expression profile of 53 cultured ECs. We found that ECs from different blood vessels and microvascular ECs from different tissues have distinct and characteristic gene expression profiles. Pervasive differences in gene expression patterns distinguish the ECs of large vessels from microvascular ECs. We identified groups of genes characteristic of arterial and venous endothelium. Hey2, the human homologue of the zebrafish gene gridlock, was selectively expressed in arterial ECs and induced the expression of several arterial-specific genes. Several genes critical in the establishment of left/right asymmetry were expressed preferentially in venous ECs, suggesting coordination between vascular differentiation and body plan development. Tissue-specific expression patterns in different tissue microvascular ECs suggest they are distinct differentiated cell types that play roles in the local physiology of their respective organs and tissues. A development or differentiation experiment design type assays events associated with development or differentiation or moving through a life cycle. Development applies to organism(s) acquiring a mature state, and differentiation applies to cells acquiring specialized functions. Using regression correlation

Project description:Mature endothelial cells (ECs) are heterogeneous, with subtypes defined by tissue origin and by position within the vascular bed. Here, we performed scRNA-seq with mouse embryonic ECs and identified 19 subclusters, including Etv2+Bnip3+ early EC progenitors. Most of these subtypes were grouped by their vascular-bed types, while ECs from brain, heart and liver were grouped by their tissue origins. Compared to arterial ECs (aECs), embryonic venous (vECs) and capillary ECs (cECs) shared less markers with their adult counterparts. cECs showed some venous characteristics. One cEC cluster with both venous and capillary features served as a branch point for aEC and vEC lineages. aECs and vECs showed distinct transcriptional regulatory networks.
