Project description:Aim: To determine the role of NOTCH during the response-to-injury and subsequent chronic inflammatory process of the arterial wall underlying atherosclerosis. Methods and results: We have generated an endothelial-specific RBPJK depleted mice using the Cdh5 cadherin promoter (ApoE-/-;RBPJflox/flox;Cdh5- CreERT). Endothelial-specific deletion of the Notch effector RBPJK or systemic deletion of the Notch1 receptor in athero-susceptible ApoE-/- mice fed a HC diet for 6 weeks resulted in reduced atherosclerosis in the aortic arch and sinus. Intravital microscopy revealed decreased leukocyte rolling on the endothelium of ApoE-/-;RBPJflox/flox;Cdh5- CreERT, that correlated with the lesser presence of leukocyts and macrophages in the vascular wall. Consistent with this, transcriptome analysis revealed that proinflammatory and endothelial activation pathways were downregulated in atherosclerotic tissue of RBPJk-mutant mice.. Jagged1 signaling upregulation in endothelial cells promotes the physical interaction and nuclear translocation of the intracellular domain of the Notch1 receptor (N1ICD) with NF-kB,. This N1ICD and NF-kB interaction is required for reciprocal transactivation of target genes including vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (Vcam1). Conclusions: Notch signaling pathway inactivation decreases leukocyte rolling, thereby preventing endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation. Thus attenuating Notch signaling may constitute a useful therapeutic strategy for atherosclerosis.

Project description:While much progress has been made in identifying the mechanisms that trigger endothelial activation and inflammatory cell recruitment during atherosclerosis, less is known about the intrinsic pathways that counteract these events. Here we identified NOTCH1 as an antagonist of endothelial cell activation. NOTCH1 was constitutively expressed by adult arterial endothelium, but levels were significantly reduced by high fat diet. Furthermore, treatment of human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) with inflammatory lipids (Ox-PAPC) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNFalpha and IL1beta) decreased Notch1 expression and signaling in vitro through a mechanism that requires STAT3 activation. Reduction of NOTCH1 in HAEC by siRNA, in the absence of inflammatory lipids or cytokines, increased inflammatory molecules and binding of monocytes. Conversely, some of the effects mediated by Ox-PAPC were reversed by increased NOTCH1 signaling; suggesting a link between lipid-mediated inflammation and Notch1. Interestingly, reduction of NOTCH1 by Ox-PAPC in HAEC was associated with a genetic variant previously correlated to HDL in a human GWAS. Finally endothelial Notch1 heterozygous mice showed higher diet-induced atherosclerosis. Based on these findings, we propose that reduction of endothelial NOTCH1 is a predisposing factor in the onset of vascular inflammation and initiation of atherosclerosis. Transcript profile from Human Aortic Endothelial Cells (HAEC) transfected with siRNA targeting NOTCH1 (n=3) or treated with Ox-PAPC (Oxidized 1-Palmitoyl-2-Arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-PhosphoCholine) for 6 hours (n=3) were compared to control HAEC (transfected with control siRNA and control media; n=3).

Project description:Formation and maturation of a functional blood vascular system is required for the development and maintenance of all tissues in the body. During the process of blood vessel development, primordial endothelial cells are formed and become specified toward arterial or venous fates to generate a circulatory network that provides nutrients and oxygen to, and removes metabolic waste from, all tissues. Specification of arterial and venous endothelial cells occurs in conjunction with suppression of endothelial cell cycle progression, and endothelial cell hyperproliferation is associated with potentially lethal arterial-venous malformations. However, the mechanistic role that cell cycle state plays in arterial-venous specification is unknown. Herein, studying vascular development in Cdh5-CreERT2;R26FUCCI2aR reporter mice, we find that venous and arterial endothelial cells exhibit a propensity for different cell cycle states during development and in adulthood. That is, venous endothelial cells are predominantly FUCCI-Negative, while arterial endothelial cells are enriched for the FUCCI-Red reporter. Single cell RNA sequencing analysis of developing retinal endothelial cells reveals that venous endothelial cells are enriched for the FUCCI-Negative state and BMP signaling, while arterial endothelial cells are enriched for the FUCCI-Red state and TGF-b signaling. Further transcriptional analyses and live imaging of cultured endothelial cells expressing the FUCCI reporter show that reporter-negative corresponds to an early G1 state and reporter-red corresponds to late G1 state. We find the early G1 state is essential for BMP4-induced venous gene expression, whereas late G1 state is essential for TGF-b1-induced arterial gene expression. In a mouse model of endothelial cell hyperproliferation and disrupted arterial-venous specification, pharmacological inhibition of endothelial cell cycle prevents the vascular defects. Collectively, our results show that endothelial cell cycle control plays a key role in arterial-venous network formation, and distinct cell cycle states provide distinct windows of opportunity for the molecular induction of arterial vs. venous specification.

Project description:Endothelial cell senescence is one of the most important causes of vascular dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous RNA molecules with covalently closed-loop structures, which have been reported to be abnormally expressed in many human diseases. However, the potential role of circRNAs in endothelial cell senescence remains unknown. Here, we compared the expression patterns of circRNAs in young and senescent human endothelial cells using RNA sequencing. Among the differentially expressed endothelial cell senescence-associated circRNAs, we identified circGNAQ, generated by circularization of exons 4 and 5 of the GNAQ gene, as a circRNA showing markedly reduced levels in senescent endothelial cells. CircGNAQ silencing in young endothelial cells triggered senescence, as determined by a rise in senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity, reduced cell proliferation, and suppressed angiogenesis; circGNAQ overexpression showed the opposite effects. Mechanistic studies revealed that circGNAQ acted as an endogenous miR-146a-5p sponge to sequester and inhibit miR-146a-5p activity, leading to increased PLK2 expression. In vivo studies showed that circGNAQ overexpression delayed endothelial cell senescence and atherosclerosis progression in ApoE-/- mice. These results revealed an important role for circGNAQ in cellular senescence and provide novel insight into the role of circRNAs in atherosclerosis progression.
