Endothelial activating transcription factor 3 promotes angiogenesis and vascular repair in the mouse retina
Ischemia and pathological angiogenesis in retinal vascular diseases cause serious vision-related problems. However, the transcriptional regulators of vascular repair remain unidentified. Thus, the factors and mechanisms involved in angiogenesis must be elucidated to develop approaches for restoring normal blood vessels. Here, we investigated the effects of the stress response activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) on angiogenesis and vascular regeneration in vitro and in vivo. ATF3 was expressed specifically in retinal vascular endothelial cells (ECs) during vascular development. Vascular endothelial growth factor stimulation upregulated ATF3 expression in cultured ECs. The downregulated ATF3 expression in ECs caused the deterioration of vascular network formation in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, ATF3 deletion in a model of oxygen-induced retinopathy inhibited retinal vascular repair but not pathological neovascularization. Transcriptome analysis confirmed that high ATF3 expression upregulated the expression of angiogenesis-related genes in ECs. ATF3 may aid vascular repair therapy in retinal vascular diseases.
期刊介绍:
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
