Brain tissue survival and functional recovery after ischemic stroke greatly depend on cerebral vessel perfusion and functional collateral circulation in the ischemic area. Semaphorin 3E (Sema3E), one of the class 3 secreted semaphorins, has been demonstrated to be a critical regulator in embryonic and postnatal vascular formation via binding to its receptor PlexinD1. However, whether Sema3E/PlexinD1 signaling is involved in poststroke neovascularization remains unknown. To determine the contribution of Sema3E/PlexinD1 signaling to poststroke recovery, aged rats (18 months) were subjected to a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. We found that depletion of Sema3E/PlexinD1 signaling with lentivirus-mediated PlexinD1-specific-shRNA improves tissue survival and functional outcome. Sema3E/PlexinD1 inhibition not only increases cortical perfusion but also ameliorates blood-brain barrier damage, as determined by positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that Sema3E suppresses endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenic capacity. More importantly, Sema3E/PlexinD1 signaling inhibits recruitment of pericytes by decreasing production of platelet derived growth factor-BB in endothelial cells. Overall, our study revealed that inhibition of Sema3E/PlexinD1 signaling in the ischemic penumbra, which increases both endothelial angiogenic capacity and recruitment of pericytes, contributed to functional neovascularization and blood-brain barrier integrity in the aged rats. Our findings imply that Sema3E/PlexinD1 signaling is a novel therapeutic target for improving brain tissue survival and functional recovery after ischemic stroke.
