Characterization of microvascular cell cultures from normotensive and hypertensive rat brains: pericyte-endothelial cell interactions in vitro.

Abstract:

:We used specific markers and fluorescence microscopy to identify and characterize cerebrovascular cells. Cultures were derived from brain microvessels isolated from normotensive (Wistar Kyoto, WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rat brains prior to, coincident with and following the onset of chronic hypertension. Endothelial cells were characterized using di-acyl LDL and non-muscle isoactin-specific antibodies. Cerebrovascular pericytes were identified with the anti-muscle and non-muscle actin antibody staining. Using this combination of cell culture and fluorescence localization, we have been able to demonstrate that brain pericytes are tightly associated with the endothelial cells of the hypertensive-prone and hypertensive cell cultures, but not with the normotensive endothelial cultures. While the endothelial-pericyte ratio in the hypertensive-prone microvascular cultures was between 5:1 and 10:1, the number of pericytes associated with the hypertensive rat brain cultures increased two to five times (2:1-1:1). Muscle and non-muscle actin antibody staining localized the spindle-shaped pericytes of the hypertensive microvascular colonies. Pericytes were found overlaying and encircling the endothelial cells. Normotensive pericytes were not endothelial-associated. Whereas the hypertensive pericyte is devoid of stress fibers, the normotensive pericyte is a larger, spread-out cell possessing numerous stress fibers rich in muscle and non-muscle actin. These results provide the first evidence that the etiology and inception of cerebrovascular disease may be pericyte-related and suggest that pericyte contraction could play a pivotal role in regulating the flow of blood within the brain microcirculation.
