• SH2 Domain Protein E sustains perivascular fibroblasts to maintain arterial stability

  Developing arteries must withstand pulsatile blood flow while remaining sufficiently flexible to accommodate changing hemodynamic demands. Endothelial interactions with perivascular cells and extracellular matrix are essential for this balance, but the signaling mechanisms that coordinate them remain incompletely understood. We previously showed that SH2 domain protein E (She), an endothelial adaptor protein implicated in ABL signaling, limits the size of the dorsal aorta (DA) in zebrafish embryos. Here, we investigated why zebrafish she mutants subsequently develop DA collapse and circulatory failure at 4–5 days post-fertilization. Before circulatory failure, the mutant DA retained an approximately circular cross-section and showed no detectable changes in the endothelial cell geometry, but exhibited increased distensibility during the cardiac cycle. Mutants had fewer perivascular stromal cells between the DA and posterior cardinal vein, smaller perivascular col1a1 and col5a1 expression domains, and reduced col1a1 transcript level. Single-cell RNA sequencing independently identified a reduced relative abundance of perivascular fibroblast subpopulation. In contrast, DA-associated mural cell numbers, laminin immunoreactivity, and local col4a1 transcript levels were not detectably altered. Ablation of pdgfrb-positive cells largely prevented DA narrowing and circulatory failure, while the nitric oxide donor sodium nitroprusside provided partial rescue. These findings support a contribution of mural cell-dependent vascular tone to collapse of the mechanically vulnerable DA. Mutants also exhibited cardiac chamber enlargement, increased atrial and bulbus arteriosus deformation, atrioventricular regurgitation, and increased Elastin B accumulation in the enlarged bulbus arteriosus. However, endocardial-specific She expression failed to rescue circulatory failure, supporting its requirement in vascular endothelium. Together, these findings link She function to perivascular fibroblast abundance, fibrillar collagen-gene expression, and arterial stability. They support a model in which impaired perivascular support renders the developing DA susceptible to mural cell-associated collapse, extending the role of She from early vessel-size regulation to maintenance of vascular function.
