Multiple angiogenic cues modulate phosphotyrosine signaling to promote
vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. Despite its functional and clinical importance,
how vascular cells integrate phosphotyrosine-dependent signaling to elicit
cytoskeletal changes required for endothelial morphogenesis remains poorly
understood. The family of Nck adaptors couples phosphotyrosine signals with actin
dynamics and therefore is well positioned to orchestrate cellular processes
required in vascular formation and remodeling. Culture of endothelial cells in
three-dimensional collagen matrices in the presence of VEGF stimulation was
combined with molecular genetics, optical imaging, and biochemistry to show that
Nck-dependent actin remodeling promotes endothelial cell elongation and proper
organization of VE-cadherin intercellular junctions. Major morphogenetic defects
caused by abrogation of Nck signaling included loss of endothelial apical-basal
polarity and impaired lumenization. Time-lapse imaging using a Förster resonance
energy transfer biosensor, immunostaining with phospho-specific antibodies, and
GST pull-down assays showed that Nck determines spatiotemporal patterns of
Cdc42/aPKC activation during endothelial morphogenesis. Our results demonstrate
that Nck acts as an important hub integrating angiogenic cues with cytoskeletal
changes that enable endothelial apical-basal polarization and lumen formation.
These findings point to Nck as an emergent target for effective antiangiogenic
therapy.
