Zinc Finger Protein St18 Protects against Septic Death by Inhibiting VEGF-A from Macrophages

Abstract: Zinc finger protein St18 was initially reported as candidate tumor suppressor gene, and also suggested that fibroblast St18 positively regulates NF-kB activation. Despite the pleiotropic functions of St18, little is known about its roles in macrophages. Here, we report that myeloid St18 is a potent inhibitor of VEGF-A. Mice lacking St18 in myeloid lineages exhibit increased retinal vasculature with enhanced serum VEGF-A concentrations. Despite the normal activation of NF-kB target genes, these mice are highly … Show more

“…High VEGFA expression in macrophages increases vascular permeability, leading to septic death. In contrast, inhibiting VEGF signaling can effectively reduce inflammation and protect mice with sepsis from death [ 60 ]. In conclusion, our study reveals that macrophages in kidney tissue may contribute to sepsis pathology by secreting growth factors and via integrin-mediated signaling.…”

“…Upon sensing angiogenic signals (such as hypoxia), macrophages migrated to the site of neovessels, secreting proangiogenic cytokines, including NO or varying proteases to either stimulate endothelial cell proliferation or provide a favorable niche for neovessel growth 201 . In colitis, macrophage‐derived VEGF‐A increased disease susceptibility by disrupting endothelium function 203 . On the other hand, IMφ–endothelium interactions were also reported to be protective in colitis.…”

For example, IMφs were crucial for maintaining the gut homeostasis by preventing the leakage of the vascular endothelium.…”
