ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Angiogenesis plays a significant role in the development of tumor progression and inflammatory diseases. The role of IL-28A in angiogenesis and its precise regulatory mechanisms remain rarely elucidated.OBJECTIVES:
We report the novel regulatory role of IL-28A in physiological angiogenesis. The study aimed to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms involved in IL-28A-mediated angiogenesis and identify key genes associated with IL-28A-induced angiogenic responses.METHODS:
To know the effect of IL-28A on angiogenesis, HUVECs were applied to perform proliferation, migration, invasion, tube formation, immunoblot, and EMSA. Gene expression changes in HUVECs following IL-28A treatment were analyzed by NGS. The functional role of HSP70-1 and IL-10Rß in IL-28A-induced angiogenic responses was evaluated using PCR and siRNA knockdown. Animal studies were conducted by aortic ring ex vivo assays, Matrigel plug in vivo assays, and immunochemistry using HSP70-1 knockout and transgenic mice models. The efficacy of IL-28A in angiogenesis was confirmed in a hind-limb ischemia model.RESULTS:
Autocrine/paracrine actions in HUVECs regulated IL-28A protein expression. Exogenous IL-28A increased the proliferation of HUVECs via eNOS/AKT and ERK1/2 signaling. IL-28A treatment promoted migration, invasion, and capillary tube formation of HUVECs through induction of the AP-1/NF-κB/MMP-2 network, which was associated with eNOS/AKT and ERK1/2 signaling. The efficacy of IL-28A-induced angiogenic potential was confirmed by aortic ring and Matrigel plug assay. HSP70-1 was identified as an IL-28A-mediated angiogenic effector gene using bioinformatics. Knockdown of HSP70-1 abolished angiogenic responses and eNOS/AKT signaling in IL-28A-treated HUVECs. IL-28A-induced microvessel sprouting formation was testified in HSP70-1-deficient and HSP70-1 transgenic mice. Flow recovery in hind-limb ischemia mice was accelerated by IL-28A injection. Finally, ablation of the IL-10Rß gene impeded the angiogenic responses and eNOS/AKT signaling stimulated by IL-28A in HUVECs.CONCLUSION:
HSP70-1 drives the progression of angiogenesis by the IL-28A/IL-10Rß axis via eNOS/AKT signaling and the AP-1/NF-κB/MMP-2 network.
