MiRNA analysis of HBMVECs exposed or unexposed to U87 glioma cells

ABSTRACT: A key step in angiogenesis is the upregulation of growth factor receptors on endothelial cells. Here we demonstrate that a small regulatory microRNA, miR-296 has a major role in this process. Glioma cells and angiogenic growth factors elevate the level of miR-296 in primary human brain microvascular endothelial cells in culture. The miR-296 level is also elevated in primary tumor endothelial cells isolated from human brain tumors compared to normal brain endothelial cells. Growth factor-induced miR-296 contributes significantly to angiogenesis by directly targeting the hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (HGS) mRNA, leading to decreased levels of HGS and thereby reducing HGS-mediated degradation of the growth factor receptors VEGFR2 and PDGFR-β. Furthermore, inhibition of miR-296 with antagomirs reduces angiogenesis in tumor xenografts in vivo. Keywords: comparitive miRNA analysis

Death Receptors DR6 and TROY Regulate Brain Vascular Development

Project description:Signaling events that regulate central nervous system (CNS) angiogenesis and blood-brain barrier (BBB) formation are only beginning to be elucidated. By evaluating the gene expression profile of mouse vasculature, we identified DR6/TNFRSF21 and TROY/TNFRSF19 as regulators of CNS-specific angiogenesis in both zebrafish and mice. Furthermore, these two death receptors interact both genetically and physically and are required for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-mediated JNK activation and subsequent human brain endothelial sprouting in vitro. Increasing beta-catenin levels in brain endothelium upregulate DR6 and TROY, indicating that these death receptors are downstream target genes of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling, which has been shown to be required for BBB development. These findings define a role for death receptors DR6 and TROY in CNS-specific vascular development. 5 replicates of 3 time points for either brain or liver/lung facs sorted vascaulture. One adult liver/lung replicate was not used as it failed QC

Death Receptors DR6 and TROY Regulate Brain Vascular Development

2012-02-15 | GSE35802 | GEO

Project description:While therapeutic angiogenesis holds promise for vascular diseases, progress has been limited due to discrepancies in defining adult endothelial progenitors. We have identified and characterized a population of pluripotent derived NRP1+CD34+ nascent endothelial cells, immediately diverged from NRP1+CD34- mesodermal cells. We contrasted the transcriptional profile of NRP1+ CD34+ nascent endothelial cells against undifferentiated human pluripotent stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to gain insights into the pathways that are uniquely activated in formation of new endothelium. We found significant upregulation of IL-6 related growth factor receptors, including ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor (CNTFR), and their downstream JAK/STAT signaling components in NRP1+CD34+ endothelial cells. When exposed to CNTF, angiogenic sprouting of NRP1+CD34+ was induced in Matrigel, which was abolished with JAK2 inhibition. Furthermore, we found evidence of JAK2 dependent cytokine signaling in more mature endothelium, highlighting the significance of the IL6R/JAK2 pathway, well known in hematopoiesis, in vascular biology. The findings identify a novel group of growth factor receptors and downstream signaling components that may be targeted to modulate angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. 7 samples analyzed, 2 replicates for NRP1+CD34+, 3 replicates for NRP1+CD34-

MicroRNA expression in HMVECs: control vs. VEGF-treated vs. PEDF/VEGF-treated

Project description:MicroRNA expression profiling of human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs) treated with either vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) only or in combination with the natural angiogenesis inhibitor pigment epithelial-derived factor (PEDF). Originally we were interested in the microRNA-mediated regulation of angiogenesis by the endogenous anti-angiogenic PEDF. To identify the microRNAs involved in PEDF signaling in activated endothelial cells, we compared the levels of microRNAs in non-treated microvascular endothelial cells, cells treated with VEGF, and cells treated with a combination of VEGF and PEDF. After treatment, total RNA content was isolated and sent for analysis to LC Sciences, LLC. They performed expression profiling and completed statistical analysis, based on which we confirmed the regulation of one of the microRNAs, mir-27b. In the following experiments, we identified the targets of mir-27b relevant for angiogenesis and confirmed our findings in zebrafish and mouse models. The manuscript describes the key role of mir-27b in determination of the endothelial tip cell fate and venous differentiation by regulating Notch ligand Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) and Sprouty homologue 2 (Spry2). Three-condition experiment: untreated (control) HMVECs vs. VEGF-treated HMVECs vs. PEDF/VEGF-treated HMVECs.

Endothelial cells require miR-214 to secrete exosomes that suppress senescence and induce angiogenesis in human and mouse endothelial cells

Project description:Signalling between endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells and stromal cells is crucial for the establishment and maintenance of vascular integrity and involves exosomes, among other signalling pathways. Exosomes are important mediators of intercellular communication in immune signalling, tumour survival, stress responses and angiogenesis. The ability of exosomes to incorporate and transfer mRNAs encoding for ‘acquired’ proteins or miRNAs repressing ‘resident’ mRNA translation suggests that they can influence the physiological behaviour of recipient cells. We here demonstrate that miR-214, a miRNA that controls endothelial cell function and angiogenesis, plays a dominant role in exosome-mediated signalling between endothelial cells. Endothelial cell-derived exosomes stimulated migration and angiogenesis in recipient cells, whereas exosomes from miR-214 depleted endothelial cells failed to stimulate these processes. Exosomes containing miR-214 repressed the expression of Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated in recipient cells, thereby preventing senescence and allowing blood vessel formation. Concordantly, specific reduction of miR-214 content in exosome-producing endothelial cells abolishes the angiogenesis the angiogenesis stimulatory function of the resulting exosomes. Collectively our data indicate that endothelial cells release miR-214 containing exosomes to stimulate angiogenesis through silencing of Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated in neighbouring target cells. Gene expression analysis of HMEC endothelial cells exposed to supernatant containing either HMEC derived exosomes (miR-214 high), HMEC derived exosomes depleted of miR-214 (miR-214 low) or containing no exosomes (no exosomes). Each sample was analysed in duplo.

The genome expression profile of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) overexpressing miR-146a

Project description:Endothelial cells are critical for angiogenesis, and microRNAs plays important roles in this process. We investigated the regulatory role of microRNAs in endothelial cells of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by examining the microRNA expression profile of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in the absence or presence of human HCC cells, and identified miR-146a as the most highly up-regulated microRNA. Furthermore, we revealed that miR-146a promoted the expression of platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFRA) in HUVECs, and this process was mediated by BRCA1. Overexpression of PDGFRA in the ECs of HCC tissues was associated with microvascular invasion, and predicted a poorer prognosis. These results suggest that MiR-146a plays a key role in regulating the angiogenic activity of ECs in HCC through miR-146a-BRCA1-PDGFRA pathway. MiR-146a may emerge as a potential anti-angiogenic target on ECs for HCC therapy. We have employed whole genome OneArray to examine the genome expression changes of HUVECs overexpressing miR-146a.
