Description
The vascular endothelium forms a physical barrier between blood and the surrounding tissue. Its constant exposure to haemodynamic shear stress controls endothelial barrier function which is of major importance for vascular homeostasis. The role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in this process remains elusive. Here we identify the shear stress-induced lncRNA LASSIE (linc00520) as a stabilizer of adherens junctions (AJs) in endothelial cells (ECs), that is indispensable for normal endothelial barrier function and shear stress sensing. Silencing of LASSIE in ECs resulted in impaired cell survival, loss of cell-cell contacts and failure to align in the direction of flow. RNA affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry identified several junction proteins associated with LASSIE, including the endothelial adhesion protein PECAM-1 and intermediate filament (IF) protein nestin. Proteomic analysis of VE-cadherin-associated proteins showed that LASSIE silencing reduces VE-cadherin interaction with nestin and microtubule (MT)-associated cytoskeletal proteins. We confirmed that LASSIE silencing results in a decreased connection between VE-Cadherin and the cytoskeleton, resulting in loss of barrier function and shear stress sensing. Together, this study identifies the shear stress-induced lncRNA LASSIE as a critical link between AJs and the IF cytoskeleton, which is indispensable for normal EC junction stabilization and shear stress sensing.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
The Collaborative Cross (CC) recombinant inbred panel was conceived as an ideal resource for mammalian system genetics. The pre-CC is a proof-of-concept experiment involving CC lines that have undergone at least five generations of inbreeding. Siblings from these lines were each involved in one of four distinct phenotyping arms, then genotyped on a high-density Affymetrix platform. The genetic profile of these emerging lines reveals high diversity, balanced allele frequencies, and well-distributed recombination all ideal qualities for a mapping panel. We have mapped white spot, a discrete trait; body weight, a highly polygenic complex trait; and more than 11,000 liver gene expression traits. These analyses provide a glimpse of the potential mapping power and resolution of the CC.
