    Notes: Abstract  In mammalian species, vimentin is the sole intermediate filament protein of endothelial cells lining the chambers of the heart and the inner surface of large blood vessels. Obvious quantitative differences in the vimentin-like immunoreactivity of endothelial cells observed in different vascular segments led us to undertake a systematic survey on the endothelial content of vimentin throughout the heart chambers, the vena cava, the pulmonary trunk, and the aorta of the pig. Immunostaining and immunoblotting showed that vimentin in endothelial cells of cardiovascular segments exposed to high shear stress and blood pressure (pulmonary trunk, aorta, left ventricle) is approximately 2- to -3-fold higher than in endothelial cells exposed to lower levels of hemodynamic stress (vena cava, left and right atria, right ventricle). Throughout the aorta, an approximately 1.5-fold increase in the vimentin contents was observed in a proximal to distal direction. The total endothelial amount of vimentin was determined to be 1.2% (inferior vena cava) and 2–3.5% (aorta) of total cellular protein. These data support the notion that the endothelial vimentin cytoskeleton can adapt to different hemodynamic loads, indicating that vimentin might help endothelial cells to withstand the mechanical forces exerted by blood flow and blood pressure.

    Notes: Abstract Cell-to-cell-junctions of endothelial cells are specialized and differentiated areas of the plasma membrane. The main functions include the separation of the intravascular and extravascular compartments, the mechanical connection of the cells, and the maintenance of the cell polarity. Although a wide heterogeneity of endothelial cell-to-cell junctions exists in situ, they should be considered in general as adherens type junctions in which gap and tight junctions are morphologically inserted. Under certain pathological conditions, such as wound healing, angiogenesis and many types of inflammation, the interendothelial junctions have to be dissociated and reorganized in which proteins of the junctions are crucially involved. These important mechanisms predict a sophisticated regulation of junctional proteins. The present paper describes the organization and functional aspects of the occludin/ZO-1 complex typically found in tight junctions, the cadherin/catenin complex of the adherens junctions and the connection of these protein complexes to the dense peripheral band via actin filaments. In addition, special attention has been drawn on the function of junction-associated proteins with respect to their role under fluid shear stress and interendothelial gap formation during inflammation.

    Description: Rationale: Angiogenesis and vessel integrity depend on the adhesion of endothelial cells (ECs) to the extracellular matrix and to adjacent ECs. The focal adhesion protein α-parvin (α-pv) is essential for vascular development. However, the role of α-pv in ECs in vivo is not known. Objective: To determine the function of α-pv in ECs during vascular development in vivo and the underlying mechanisms. Methods and Results: We deleted the α-pv gene specifically in ECs of mice to study its role in angiogenesis and vascular development. Here, we show that endothelial-specific deletion of α-pv in mice results in late embryonic lethality associated with hemorrhages and reduced vascular density. Postnatal-induced EC-specific deletion of α-pv leads to retinal hypovascularization because of reduced vessel sprouting and excessive vessel regression. In the absence of α-pv, blood vessels display impaired VE-cadherin junction morphology. In vitro, α-pv–deficient ECs show reduced stable adherens junctions, decreased monolayer formation, and impaired motility, associated with reduced formation of integrin-mediated cell–extracellular matrix adhesion structures and an altered actin cytoskeleton. Conclusions: Endothelial α-pv is essential for vessel sprouting and for vessel stability.
