The lineage and developmental trajectory of a cell are key determinants of cellular identity. In the vascular system, endothelial cells (ECs) of blood and lymphatic vessels (LVs) differentiate and specialize to cater the unique physiological demands of each organ. While LVs were shown to derive from multiple cellular origins, lymphatic ECs (LECs) are not known to generate other cell-types. Here, we use recurrent imaging and lineage-tracing of ECs in zebrafish anal fins (AF), from early development through adulthood, to uncover an unexpected mechanism of specialized blood vessel formation through transdifferentiation of LECs. Moreover, we demonstrate that deriving AF vessels from lymphatic vs. blood ECs results in functional differences in the adult organism, uncovering a link between cell ontogeny and functionality. We further use scRNA-seq to characterize the different cellular populations and transition states involved in the transdifferentiation process. Finally, we show that akin to normal development, the vasculature is re-derived from lymphatics during AF regeneration, demonstrating that LECs in adult fish retain both potency and plasticity for generating blood ECs. Overall, our work highlights a new innate mechanism of blood vessel formation through LEC transdifferentiation, and provides in vivo evidence for a link between cell ontogeny and functionality in ECs.
