Abstract：
:Pericytes are perivascular support cells, the origin of which in tumor tissue is not clear. Recently, we identified a Tie1(+) precursor cell that differentiates into vascular smooth muscle, in a Notch-dependent manner. To understand the involvement of Notch in the ontogeny of tumor pericytes we used a novel flow immunophenotyping strategy to define CD146(+)/CD45(-)/CD31(-/lo) pericytes in the tumor stroma. This strategy combined with ex vivo co-culture experiments identified a novel pericyte progenitor cell population defined as Sca1(hi)/CD146(-)/CD45(-)/CD31(-). The differentiation of these progenitor cells was stimulated by co-culture with endothelial cells. Overexpression of the Notch ligand Jagged1 in endothelial cells further stimulated the differentiation of Sca1(hi)/CD146(-)/CD45(-)/CD31(-) cells into pericytes, while inhibition of Notch signaling with a γ-secretase inhibitor reduced this differentiation. However, Notch inhibition specifically in Tie1-expressing cells did not change the abundance of pericytes in tumors, suggesting that the pericyte precursor is distinct from the vascular smooth muscle cell precursor. Transplant experiments showed that the bone marrow contributes minimally to tumor pericytes. Immunophenotyping revealed that Sca1(hi)/CD146(-)/CD45(-)/CD31(-) cells have greater potential to differentiate into pericytes and have increased expression of classic mesenchymal stem cell markers (CD13, CD44, Nt5e and Thy-1) compared to Sca1(-/lo)/CD146(-)/CD45(-)/CD31(-) cells. Our results suggest that a local Sca1(hi)/CD146(-)/CD45(-)/CD31(-) pericyte progenitor resides in the tumor microenvironment and requires Notch signaling for differentiation into mature pericytes.
