Project description:BACKGROUND: The deSUMOylase SENP2 exerts athero-protective effects by inhibiting endothelial cell (EC) activation through attenuating ERK5 and p53 SUMOylation. Publicly available datasets show that SENP2 S344 is phosphorylated by Checkpoint Kinase 1 (CHK1), but the functional role remains unknown. METHODS: Mouse SENP2 S343A (human S344A) phosphodeficient knock in (KI) mutant was generated by CRISPR/Cas9, and vascular-specific function was assessed via bone marrow transplantation (BMT). ECs from KI and wild type (WT) mice were exposed to smooth (laminar flow; l-flow) or grooved (disturbed flow; d-flow) cone-and-plate devices and characterized by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). RESULTS: L-flow increased CHK1 S280 and SENP2 S344 phosphorylation, which inhibited ERK5 and p53 SUMOylation and atherogenesis in vivo. BMT-generated vascular specific SENP2 S344A KI showed more atherogenesis but thinner fibrous cap formation specifically in the aortic arch area (d-flow) compared to that of WT mice. Ionizing radiation (IR) decreased CHK1 expression and SENP2 S344 phosphorylation, which might account for differences between systemic and BMT-generated vascular specific SENP2 S344A KI models. RNA-seq data analysis showed that SENP2 S344 phosphorylation in ECs in response to l-flow inhibited EC activation and fibrotic changes without interfering EC lineage phenotype. Lastly, l-flow-induced expression of genes was regulated by SENP2 S344 phosphorylation through ERK5 activation and inhibited EC apoptosis. CONCLUSIONS: We uncovered a novel mechanism by which l-flow inhibits EC activation, including proliferation, migration, inflammation, and fibrotic changes, via upregulating CHK1-mediated SENP2 S344 phosphorylation to attenuate atherogenesis. We also uncovered a unique expression pattern of fibrotic changes without affecting EC lineage, which is distinct from endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition and therefore should be considered a unique type of EC activation for its potential role in vulnerable plaque formation.
