Adipose tissue exposed to cold

ABSTRACT: Cold triggers VEGF dependent but hypoxia independent angiogenesis in adipose tissues and anti-VEGF agents modulate adipose metabolism The molecular mechanisms of angiogenesis in relation to adipose tissue metabolism remain poorly understood. Here we show that exposure of mice to cold led to conversion of white adipose tissue (WAT) to brown-like adipose tissue, accompanying the switch of an active angiogenic phenotype. Gene expression profile analysis showed VEGF was upregulated via most likely hypoxia-independent PGC-1 transcriptional activation. Intriguingly, VEGFR2 blockage abolished the cold-induced angiogenesis, significantly impaired nonshivering thermogenesis capacity, and markedly reduced adipose metabolism. Unexpectedly, VEGFR1 blockage resulted in opposite effects by increasing adipose vascularity and metabolism. These findings demonstrate that VEGFR2 and VEGFR1 mediate polarized activities in modulating adipose angiogenesis and metabolism. Taken together, our findings have conceptual implications in applying angiogenesis modulators for the treatment of obesity and metabolic disorders. Keywords: Time course

GLUTAMINE METABOLISM VIA TRANSAMINATION REGULATES VEGFR2 TRANSLATION DURING ANGIOGENESIS

Project description:Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones, is a complex and demanding biological process that plays an important role in physiological as well as pathological settings such as cancer and ischemia. Given its critical role, the regulation of endothelial growth factor receptor (e.g. VEGFR2, FGFR1) represents important mechanisms for the control of angiogenesis. Recent evidences support cell metabolism as a critical regulator of angiogenesis. However, it is unknown how glutamine metabolism regulates growth factor receptor expression. Here, by using genetic and pharmacological approaches, we show that glutaminolysis and glutamate-dependent transaminases (TAs) support alpha-ketoglutarate (αKG) levels and are critical regulators of angiogenic response during pathological conditions. Indeed, the endothelial specific blockage of GLS1 impairs ischemic and tumor angiogenesis by suppressing VEGFR2 translation via mTORC1-dependent pathway. Lastly, we discover that ECs catabolized the glutamine-derived glutamate via phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 (PSAT1) as crucial to support VEGFR2 translation. These findings identify glutamine anaplerosis and TA activity as a critical regulator of growth factor receptor translation in normal and pathological angiogenesis. We anticipate our studies to be a starting point for novel anti-angiogenesis approaches based on GLS1/PSAT1 inhibitor treatments to overcome anti-VEGF therapies resistance.

Slit2 modifies VEGF-induced angiogenic responses in rabbit skeletal muscle by inducing capillary sprouting and decreasing vascular permeability via reduced eNOS activity

Project description:Rationale: Slit2 is a possible modulator of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) - induced angiogenesis, but its effects have not been tested in large animal models. Objective: We studied the effect of Slit2 on therapeutic angiogenesis induced by VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) ligands Vammin and VEGF-DΔNΔC in vivo in rabbit skeletal muscles. The Slit2 target genes were also studied by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) in endothelial cells. Methods and Results: Adenoviral intramuscular gene transfers were performed into rabbit hindlimbs. Confocal and multiphoton microscopy were used for blood vessel imaging. Signaling experiments and gene expression analyses were performed to study mechanisms of Slit2 action. Slit2 decreased VEGFR2-mediated vascular permeability. It also reduced VEGFR2-mediated increase in blood perfusion and capillary enlargement, whereas sprouting of the capillaries was increased. Slit2 gene transfer alone did not have any effects on vascular functions or morphology. VEGFR2 activation was not affected by Slit2, but eNOS phosphorylation was diminished. The transcriptome profiling showed Slit2 downregulating angiogenesis-related genes such as nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) and Stanniocalcin-1 (STC-1) as well as genes related to endothelial cell migration and vascular permeability. Conclusions: Combining Slit2 with VEGFs adjusts VEGFR2-mediated angiogenic effects into a more physiological direction. This possibly allows the use of higher VEGF vector doses to achieve a more widespread vector and VEGF distribution in the target tissues leading to a better therapeutic outcome while reducing excess vascular permeability.

FGF-dependent regulation of VEGF signaling via transcriptional control of VEGF receptor 2 expression

Project description:Numerous studies have suggested a link between fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathways; however the nature of this link has not been established. To evaluate this relationship we investigated VEGF signaling in endothelial cells with disrupted FGF signaling in vitro and in vivo. We find that endothelial cells lacking FGF signaling become unresponsive to VEGF due to down regulation of VEGFR2 expression caused by reduced Vegfr2 enhancer activation, which is in turn caused by reduced activation of Ets family transcription factors. In vivo this manifests in the loss of vascular integrity and morphogenesis. Thus, basal FGF stimulation of the endothelium is required for maintenance of VEGFR2 expression and the ability to respond to VEGF stimulation and accounts for the hierarchic control of vascular formation by FGFs and VEGF. Primary mouse lung endothelial cells were transduced with either Adeno-Null (empty) or Adeno- dominant negative FGF receptor 1 and harvested 24 hours after transduction. Total RNA was extracted and subjected to the analysis using SuperArray GEArray Q Series Mouse Angiogenesis Gene Array. Comparisons were made between treatments.

Tumor Explants Elucidate a Cascade of Paracrine SHH, WNT, and VEGF Signals Driving Pancreatic Cancer Angiosuppression

Project description:The sparse vascularity of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) presents a mystery: what prevents this aggressive malignancy from undergoing neoangiogenesis to counteract hypoxia and better support growth? An incidental finding from prior work on paracrine communication between malignant PDAC cells and fibroblasts revealed that inhibition of the Hedgehog (HH) pathway partially relieved angiosuppression, increasing tumor vascularity through unknown mechanisms. Initial efforts to study this phenotype were hindered by difficulties replicating the complex interactions of multiple cell types in vitro. Here we identify a cascade of paracrine signals between multiple cell types that act sequentially to suppress angiogenesis in PDAC. Malignant epithelial cells promote HH signaling in fibroblasts, leading to inhibition of non-canonical WNT signaling in fibroblasts and epithelial cells, thereby limiting VEGFR2-dependent activation of endothelial hypersprouting. This cascade was elucidated using human and murine PDAC explant models, which effectively retain the complex cellular interactions of native tumor tissues.

The effects of AAV-VEGF-B and deletion of endothelial VEGFR1 on heart transcriptome in adult mice

Project description:We evaluated the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor -B (VEGF-B) and the deletion of its receptor VEGFR1 from endothelial cells on cardiac hypertrophy. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis showed that overexpression of the ligand had similar effects on the heart transcriptome as deletion of its receptor. Both treatments also induced angiogenesis and mild cardiac hypertrophy. The aim of the study was to identify pathways, which mediate angiogenesis-induced cardiac hypertrophy.

YAP/TAZ as new regulatory hub of VEGF signaling [ChIP]

Project description:VEGF is a major driver of blood vessel formation. However, the signal transduction pathways culminating into the biological consequences of VEGF signaling are partially understood. Here we show that the Hippo pathway effectors YAP and TAZ, work as a regulatory hub in mediating VEGF-VEGFR2 signaling during angiogenesis. We demonstrate that YAP/TAZ are essential for vascular development as endothelium specific deletion of YAP/TAZ leads to impaired vascularization and embryonic lethality. Mechanistically, we show that VEGF activates YAP/TAZ via its effects on actin cytoskeleton remodeling, and that activated YAP/TAZ induce a transcriptional program that results in the expression of a set of genes to further control cytoskeleton dynamics, and thus ensure a proper angiogenic response. YAP/TAZ deletion also results in VEGFR2 trafficking defects from the Golgi to the plasma membrane. Together, our study establishes YAP/TAZ as a central regulatory hub that mediates VEGF signaling, and hence, regulates angiogenesis.

Mir-130a potentiates the reparative properties of human endothelial colony forming cells facing hypoxia via VEGFR2 and STAT3

Project description:Hypoxia controls reparative angiogenesis. MiRNAs are master regulators of gene expression in hypoxia and angiogenesis. However, we do not yet have a clear understanding of how hypoxia-induced miRNAs modulate vasoreparative processes. Here, we identify miR-130a as a mediator of the hypoxic response in human primary endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs), a well-characterized subtype of endothelial progenitor. Under hypoxic conditions, miR-130a overexpression enhances ECFC pro-angiogenic capacity in vitro and potentiates their vasoreparative properties in vivo. Mechanistically, miR-130a orchestrates upregulation of VEGFR2, activation of STAT3-dependent transcription, and accumulation of HIF1α via translational inhibition of DDX6. These findings unveil a new role for miR-130a in hypoxia, whereby it modulates the VEGFR2/STAT3/HIF1α axis to increase the vasoregenerative capacity of ECFCs.
