dc.description.abstract | Aberrant regulation of the proliferation, survival, and migration of endothelial cells (ECs) is closely related to the abnormal angiogenesis occurs in hypoxia-induced pathological situations, such as cancer and vascular retinopathy. Hypoxic conditions and the subsequent upregulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and target genes are important for the angiogenic functions of ECs. Phospholipase D2 (PLD2) is a crucial signaling mediator that stimulates the production of the second messenger phosphatidic acid. PLD2 is involved in various cellular functions | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | however, its specific roles in ECs under hypoxia and in vivo angiogenesis remain unclear. In the present study, I investigated the potential roles of PLD2 in ECs under hypoxia and in hypoxia-induced pathological angiogenesis in vivo. Here, I report that Pld2 knockout (KO) endothelial cells exhibited decreased hypoxia-induced cellular responses in survival, migration, and thus vessel sprouting. The roles of PLD2 in hypoxia-induced in vivo pathological angiogenesis were assessed using oxygen-induced retinopathy and tumor implantation models in endothelial-specific Pld2 KO mice (eKO). Pld2 eKO retinae showed decreased neovascular tuft formation despite a larger avascular region. Tumor growth and tumor blood vessel formation were also reduced in Pld2 eKO. Analysis of hypoxia-induced gene expression revealed that PLD2 deficiency disrupted the upregulation of HIF-1α target genes including VEGF, PFKFB3, HMOX-1, and NTRK2. Consistent with this, PLD2 contributed to hypoxia-induced HIF-1α expression at the translational level.
