Endothelial cells represent an important component of the neurogenic niche and may regulate self-renewal and differentiation of neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Whether they have a role in determining the apoptotic fate of NPCs after stress or injury is unclear. NPCs are known to undergo p53-dependent apoptosis after ionizing radiation, whereas endothelial cell apoptosis after irradiation is dependent on membrane acid sphingomyelinase (ASMase) and is abrogated in sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1 (smpd1)- (gene that encodes ASMase) deficient mice. Here we found that p53-dependent apoptosis of NPCs in vivo after irradiation was inhibited in smpd1-deficient mice. NPCs cultured from mice, wild type (+/+) or knockout (−/−), of the smpd1 gene, however, demonstrated no difference in apoptosis radiosensitivity. NPCs transplanted into the hippocampus of smpd1−/− mice were protected against apoptosis after irradiation compared with those transplanted into smpd1+/+ mice. Intravenous administration of basic fibroblast growth factor, which does not cross the blood–brain barrier, known to protect endothelial cells against apoptosis after irradiation also attenuated the apoptotic response of NPCs. These findings provide evidence that endothelial cells may regulate p53-dependent apoptosis of NPCs after genotoxic stress and add support to an important role of endothelial cells in regulating apoptosis of NPCs after injury or in disease.
