http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/31908356http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Proper functioning of the lymphatic system is required for normal immune responses, fluid balance, and lipid reabsorption. Multiple regulatory mechanisms are employed to ensure the correct formation and function of lymphatic vessels; however, the epigenetic modulators and mechanisms involved in this process are poorly understood. Here, we assess the regulatory role of mouse Dot1l, a histone H3 lysine (K) 79 (H3K79) methyltransferase, in lymphatic formation. Genetic ablation of Dot1l in Tie2(+) endothelial cells (ECs), but not in Lyve1(+) or Prox1(+) lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) or Vav1(+) definitive hematopoietic stem cells, leads to catastrophic lymphatic anomalies, including skin edema, blood-lymphatic mixing, and underdeveloped lymphatic valves and vessels in multiple organs. Remarkably, targeted Dot1l loss in Tie2(+) ECs leads to fully penetrant lymphatic aplasia, whereas Dot1l overexpression in the same cells results in partially hyperplastic lymphatics in the mesentery. Genetic studies reveal that Dot1l functions in c-Kit(+) hemogenic ECs during mesenteric lymphatic formation. Mechanistically, inactivation of Dot1l causes a reduction of both H3K79me2 levels and the expression of genes important for LEC development and function. Thus, our study establishes that Dot1l-mediated epigenetic priming and transcriptional regulation in LEC progenitors safeguard the proper lymphatic development and functioning of lymphatic vessels."xsd:string
