Increased soluble endoglin (sENG) were observed in human brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs), and overexpression of sENG with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A induced dysplastic vessel formation in mouse brain. However, the underlying mechanism of sENG-induced vascular malformations is not clear. While evidence suggests the role of sENG as a pro-inflammatory modulator, increased microglial accumulation and inflammations were observed in bAVMs. Therefore, we hypothesized that microglia mediate sENG-induced inflammation and endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction in bAVMs. In this study, we confirmed that sENG with VEGF-A overexpression induced dysplastic vessel formation. Remarkably, there were increased microglial activation around dysplastic vessels with expression of NLRP3, inflammasome marker. We found that sENG increased the gene expression of VEGF-A, pro-inflammatory cytokines/inflammasome mediators (TNF-α, IL-6, NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-1, and IL-1β), and proteolytic enzyme (MMP-9) in BV2 microglia. The conditioned media from sENG-treated BV2 (BV2-sENG-CM) significantly increased angiogenic factors (Notch-1 and TGFβ) and pERK1/2 in ECs while it decreased IL-17RD, an anti-angiogenic mediator. Finally, the BV2-sENG-CM significantly increased EC migration and tube formation. Together, our study demonstrates that sENG provokes microglia to release angiogenic/inflammatory responses which may be involved in EC dysfunction. Our study suggests the contribution of microglia in the pathology of sENG-associated vascular malformations.
