CAMP/EPAC signaling enables ETV2 to induce endothelial cells with high angiogenesis potential [RNA-seq]


ABSTRACT: Although the generation of ETV2-induced endothelial cells (iECs) from human fibroblasts serves as a novel therapeutic strategy in regenerative medicine, the process is inefficient, resulting in incomplete iEC angiogenesis. Therefore, we employed ChIP-sequencing and identified molecular mechanisms underlying ETV2-mediated endothelial transdifferentiation to efficiently produce iECs retaining appropriate functionality in long-term culture. We revealed that the majority of ETV2 targets in human fibroblasts are related to vasculature development and signaling transduction pathways including Rap1 signaling. From a screening of signaling pathway modulators, we confirmed that forskolin facilitated efficient and rapid iEC reprogramming via activation of cAMP/EPAC/RAP1 axis. The iECs obtained via cAMP signaling activation showed superior angiogenesis in vivo as well as in vitro. Moreover, these cells could form aligned endothelium along the vascular lumen ex vivo when seeded into decellularized liver scaffold. Overall, our study provided evidence that cAMP/EPAC/RAP1 axis is required for the efficient generation of iECs with angiogenesis potential.
