Inducible deletion of endothelial cell Efnb2 delays capillary regeneration and attenuates myofibre reinnervation following myotoxin injury in mice.
Acute injury of skeletal muscle disrupts myofibres, microvessels and motor innervation. Myofibre regeneration is well characterized, however its relationship with the regeneration of microvessels and motor nerves is undefined. Endothelial cell (EC) ephrin-B2 (Efnb2) is required for angiogenesis during embryonic development and promotes neurovascular regeneration in the adult. We hypothesized that, following acute injury to skeletal muscle, loss of EC Efnb2 would impair microvascular regeneration and the recovery of neuromuscular junction (NMJ) integrity. Mice (aged 3-6 months) were bred for EC-specific conditional knockout (CKO) of Efnb2 following tamoxifen injection with non-injected CKO mice as controls (CON). The gluteus maximus, tibialis anterior or extensor digitorum longus muscle was then injured with local injection of BaCl2. Intravascular staining with wheat germ agglutinin revealed diminished capillary area in the gluteus maximus of CKO vs. CON at 5 days post-injury (dpi); both recovered to uninjured (0 dpi) level by 10 dpi. At 0 dpi, tibialis anterior isometric force of CKO was less than CON. At 10 dpi, isometric force was reduced by half in both groups. During intermittent contractions (75 Hz, 330 ms s-1, 120 s), isometric force fell during indirect (sciatic nerve) stimulation whereas force was maintained during direct (electrical field) stimulation of myofibres. Neuromuscular transmission failure correlated with perturbed presynaptic (terminal Schwann cells) and postsynaptic (nicotinic acetylcholine receptors) NMJ morphology in CKO. Resident satellite cell number on extensor digitorum longus myofibres did not differ between groups. Following acute injury of skeletal muscle, loss of Efnb2 in ECs delays capillary regeneration and attenuates recovery of NMJ structure and function. KEY POINTS: The relationship between microvascular regeneration and motor nerve regeneration following skeletal muscle injury is undefined. Expression of Efnb2 in endothelial cells (ECs) is essential to vascular development and promotes neurovascular regeneration in the adult.

期刊介绍:
The Journal of Physiology publishes full-length original Research Papers and Techniques for Physiology, which are short papers aimed at disseminating new techniques for physiological research. Articles solicited by the Editorial Board include Perspectives, Symposium Reports and Topical Reviews, which highlight areas of special physiological interest. CrossTalk articles are short editorial-style invited articles framing a debate between experts in the field on controversial topics. Letters to the Editor and Journal Club articles are also published. All categories of papers are subjected to peer reivew.
The Journal of Physiology welcomes submitted research papers in all areas of physiology. Authors should present original work that illustrates new physiological principles or mechanisms. Papers on work at the molecular level, at the level of the cell membrane, single cells, tissues or organs and on systems physiology are all acceptable. Theoretical papers and papers that use computational models to further our understanding of physiological processes will be considered if based on experimentally derived data and if the hypothesis advanced is directly amenable to experimental testing. While emphasis is on human and mammalian physiology, work on lower vertebrate or invertebrate preparations may be suitable if it furthers the understanding of the functioning of other organisms including mammals.
