|TCOverview=The lymphatic vasculature plays a critical role in the maintenance of tissue fluid balance, the uptake of dietary fats and the immune response. Lymphatic vessels are also actively involved in pathological conditions, in particular in promoting cancer metastasis to lymph nodes and in controlling chronic inflammatory diseases (1, 2, 3, 4). The growth of new lymphatic vessels from pre-existing vasculature is called lymphangiogenesis. The main pathway regulating lymphangiogenesis is VEGF-C signaling via its receptor VEGFR-3 on lymphatic endothelial cells.

A mutated version of VEGF-C, VEGF-C156S, in which cysteine 156 is replaced by a serine, specifically activates VEGFR-3 but not VEGFR-2 (6). Specific activation of VEGFR-3 by VEGF-C156S is sufficient to induce lymphangiogenesis, as demonstrated in K14-VEGF-C156S mice. Upon stimulation, the receptor dimerizes and is phosphorylated at several tyrosine residues. These phosphorylation sites activate several adaptor molecules along with further downstream mediators including JNK, ERK1/2, PI3K and PKB/AKT, ultimately leading phenotypic changes of LECs.

The lymphatic vasculature plays a critical role in the maintenance of tissue fluid balance, the uptake of dietary fats and the immune response. Lymphatic vessels are also actively involved in pathological conditions, in particular in promoting cancer metastasis to lymph nodes and in controlling chronic inflammatory diseases (1, 2, 3, 4).

The main pathway regulating lymphangiogenesis is VEGF-C signaling via its receptor VEGFR-3 on lymphatic endothelial cells. Fully mature VEGF-C has affinity for VEGFR-2 which is also expressed on lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) (5). A mutated version of VEGF-C, VEGF-C156S, in which cysteine 156 is replaced by a serine, specifically activates VEGFR-3 but not VEGFR-2 (6).

Sample description

We have used primary lymphatic endothelial cells, which have previously been isolated from human foreskin (7). Cells were cultured on collagen-coated culture dishes in EBM medium (Lonza) supplemented with 20% FBS (Life Technologies), 1x penicillin/streptomycin (Life Technologies), 2mM L-Glutamine (Life Technologies), 25 µg/ml cAMP (Sigma-Aldrich), and 10 µg/ml hydrocortisone (Sigma-Aldrich). For this study, we used cells isolated from 3 individual donors, at low passage numbers (<=6). Cells were seeded at 70% confluency and were starved in EBM + 0.2% BSA over night before stimulation with 1.5 µg/ml recombinant human VEGF-C156S (Kari Alitalo, University of Helsinki, Finland) for 0 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 80 min, 100 min, 2 h, 2.5h, 3 h, 3.5 h, 4 h, 5 h, 6 h, 7 h, or 8 h (16 different time points). The 0 min time point of treatment served as a control for the other time points (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Schematic overview of the experimental procedure for the transcriptome analysis. Starved lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) were treated with VEGF-C156S (1.5μg/ml) for various time periods from 0 min to 480 min. Treatment was terminated by adding TRIzol and isolating the RNA for CAGE sequencing.

Quality control

Marker gene expression

Marker gene expression Key genes of interest behaved the same way in all three isolates. As expected, there was a rapid induction of the known VEGF-C target gene DLL4 (8), whereas SOX18, a master transcription factor of lymphatic cell identity, was robustly expressed over the whole time course, and was only mildly induced by VEGF-C156S (Figure 2).
Figure 2: TPM expression profiles of individual replicates for the VEGF-C target genes Dll4 and SOX18. An early up-regulation of SOX18 and Dll4 can be observed after VEGF-C156S stimulation.
