In this study, we investigated the role and molecular mechanism of p43 and YS-1 (recombinant human p43 protein) in Dll4-Notch1 signaling pathway. Active, small interfering RNA and recombinant plasmid targeting of p43 protein were used to infect human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Three-dimensional sprouting model, endothelial cell migration assay, and sprouting and tube formation assay were used to deduce the function of p43 and YS-1 in angiogenesis. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis were performed to detect the efficiency of p43 in Dll4-Notch1 signaling in HUVECs. It was found that silencing and overexpression of p43 could upregulate Dll4-Notch and stimulate angiogenesis. p43 plays a complex role in angiogenesis. When the concentration is under 100 nM, it promotes angiogenesis; instead, when the concentration is over 100 nM, it inhibits angiogenesis. In this study, we found that the expression level of p43 was under 60 nM. However, recombinant human p43 protein, YS-1, inhibited endothelial cell sprouting, and 500 μg/ml of YS-1 attenuated the activation of Dll4-Notch1 signaling. These results suggested that YS-1 could directly inhibit angiogenesis through Dll4-Notch1 signal transduction pathway, while p43 plays a modulating role in this signaling pathway.
