RESUMO

Type H vessels couple angiogenesis with osteogenesis, while sympathetic cues regulate vascular and skeletal function. The crosstalk between sympathetic nerves and type H vessels in bone remains unclear. Here, we first identify close spatial connections between sympathetic nerves and type H vessels in bone, particularly in metaphysis. Sympathoexcitation, mimicked by isoproterenol (ISO) injection, reduces type H vessels and bone mass. Conversely, beta-2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) deficiency maintains type H vessels and bone mass in the physiological condition. In vitro experiments reveal indirect sympathetic modulation of angiogenesis via paracrine effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which alter the transcription of multiple angiogenic genes in endothelial cells (ECs). Furthermore, Notch signaling in ECs underlies sympathoexcitation-regulated type H vessel formation, impacting osteogenesis and bone mass. Finally, propranolol (PRO) inhibits beta-adrenergic activity and protects type H vessels and bone mass against estrogen deficiency. These findings unravel the specialized neurovascular coupling in bone homeostasis and regeneration.

RESUMO

Glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (Gli1) marks a subpopulation of endogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) characterized by perivascular location. Here, we present an optimized immunofluorescence staining protocol to identify resident Gli1+ MSCs in fixed/frozen bone sections from LacZ transgenic mice. This protocol describes the preparation of fixed/frozen tissue sections and the use of LacZ immunofluorescent staining for the in vivo characterization of endogenous MSCs, regarding their specific identity and specialized niches, and is applicable to LacZ-expressing cells of diverse organs. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Chen et al. (2020).
