Background

Hypoxia may play a role in the pathogenesis of infantile hemangioma. Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (Cyr61), or CCN1, can be induced under hypoxic conditions in several types of cells. However, whether CCN1 has any impact on infantile hemangioma remains unknown. This study aims to explore the expression of CCN1 in infantile hemangioma and to investigate the effect of hypoxia on CCN1 and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) production.

Methods

Hemangioma-derived endothelial cells and hemangioma-derived stem cells were isolated from surgical specimens of proliferative infantile hemangioma. RNA extracted from infantile hemangioma tissue, hemangioma-derived endothelial cells, and hemangioma-derived stem cells was used to analyze gene expression by real-time polymerase chain reaction. The effects of CCN1 blockade were examined in hemangioma-derived stem cells. Immunostaining, immunoblotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to assess protein expression.

Results

By double-label immunofluorescence staining, the authors first identified that CCN1 was abundant in proliferative infantile hemangioma lesions and colocalized well with immature microvessels. The authors found that the mRNA level of CCN1 in proliferative infantile hemangioma was significantly higher than in healthy controls, as was involuting infantile hemangioma. Treatment with the hypoxia inducer cobalt chloride dramatically increased CCN1 production in hemangioma-derived endothelial cells in a time-dependent manner. Furthermore, blocking or knockdown of CCN1 expression reduced the expression of VEGF-A in hemangioma-derived stem cells. Lastly, the signaling pathway study showed that CCN1 up-regulation of VEGF-A synthesis in hemangioma-derived stem cells depends on nuclear factor-κB and JNK activation.

Conclusions

These findings provide new evidence that CCN1 participates in the crosstalk between hemangioma-derived endothelial cells and hemangioma-derived stem cells through promoting VEGF-A expression in the hypoxic environment of infantile hemangioma angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Targeting of CCN1 might be a novel therapeutic strategy for infantile hemangioma."xsd:string
