Several positively charged epitopes on the surface of CXCL8 involved in the binding of the major components of endothelial glycocalyx, sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).In the present study, we aimed to test the hypothesis that the surface GAGs — heparan sulfate (HS) is a crucial prerequisite for enhancement of endothelial cell migration by CXCL8, and to explore its underlying mechanism by detecting the changes in expression of Rho-GTPases and in the organization of actin cytoskeleton after enzymatic removal of HS on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by using heparinase III.Our results revealed that the reduction of wound area by CXCL8 was greatly attenuated by removal of HS. The upregulations of Rho-GTPases, including Cdc42, Rac1, and RhoA by CXCL8 were suppressed by removal of HS . The polymerization and polarization of actin cytoskeleton, and the increasing of stress fibers by CXCL8 were also abolished by heparinase III. Taken together, our results demonstrated an essential role of HS in mediating CXCL8-induced endothelial cell migration, and highlighted the biological relevance of the CXCL8 and GAGs interactions in endothelial cell migration.

Endothelial Cell Migration

CXCL8 (Interleukin-8, IL-8) plays an important role in angiogenesis and wound healing by prompting endothelial cell migration. It has been suggested that heparan sulfate (HS) could provide binding sites on endothelial cells to retain and activate highly diffusible cytokines and inflammatory chemokines. In the present study, we aimed to test the hypothesis that HS is essential for enhancement of endothelial cell migration by CXCL8, and to explore the underlying mechanism by detecting the changes in expression and activity of Rho GTPases and in the organization of actin cytoskeleton after enzymatic removal of HS on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by using heparinase III. Our results revealed that the wound healing induced by CXCL8 was greatly attenuated by removal of HS. The CXCL8-upregulated Rho GTPases including Cdc42, Rac1, and RhoA, and CXCL8-increased Rac1/Rho activity were suppressed by removal of HS. The polymerization and polarization of actin cytoskeleton, and the increasing of stress fibers induced by CXCL8 were also abolished by heparinase III. Taken together, our results demonstrated an essential role of HS in mediating CXCL8-induced endothelial cell migration, and highlighted the biological importance of the interaction between CXCL8 and heparan sulfate in wound healing.

12 Lipoxygenase

Angiogenesis, the formation of new capillaries from preexisting blood vessels, is a multistep, highly orchestrated process involving vessel sprouting, endothelial cell migration, proliferation, tube differentiation, and survival. Eicosanoids, arachidonic acid (AA)-derived metabolites, have potent biologic activities on vascular endothelial cells. Endothelial cells can synthesize various eicosanoids, including the 12-lipoxygenase (LOX) product 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE). Here we demonstrate that endogenous 12-LOX is involved in endothelial cell angiogenic responses. First, the 12-LOX inhibitor, N-benzyl-N-hydroxy-5-phenylpentanamide (BHPP), reduced endothelial cell proliferation stimulated either by basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) or by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Second, 12-LOX inhibitors blocked VEGF-induced endothelial cell migration, and this blockage could be partially reversed by the addition of 12(S)-HETE. Third, pretreatment of an angiogenic endothelial cell line, RV-ECT, with BHPP significantly inhibited the formation of tubelike/cordlike structures within Matrigel. Fourth, overexpression of 12-LOX in the CD4 endothelial cell line significantly stimulated cell migration and tube differentiation. In agreement with the critical role of 12-LOX in endothelial cell angiogenic responses in vitro, the 12-LOX inhibitor BHPP significantly reduced bFGF-induced angiogenesis in vivo using a Matrigel implantation bioassay. These findings demonstrate that AA metabolism in endothelial cells, especially the 12-LOX pathway, plays a critical role in angiogenesis.
