Atherosclerotic and high-risk plaques are predominantly localized to vessel wall regions with non-laminar disturbed blood flow (d-flow), leading to the principle that d-flow-, but not laminar flow (l-flow)-driven endothelial cells (EC) dysfunction plays a role in this process. LATS1/2 and YAP are components of the Hippo signaling pathway that are involved in cellular responses to l-flow. The l-flow-mediated inhibition of LATS1/2 activity triggers YAP activation and maintains vascular structure. However, the role of Hippo signaling under d-flow remains unclear. Although both l- and d-flow increased YAP activity, only d-flow decreased LATS1/2 expression. Since the effects of l- and d-flow on EC differ, we studied the role of EC LATS1/2 using EC-specific Lats1 and 2 knock-out (EKO) mice. Within 14 days after inducing Lats1/2 deletion in tamoxifen-inducible Lats1/Lats2 EKO mice, all the mice (27/27) died of severe systemic edema, accompanied by increased EC apoptosis and vascular permeability. We generated Lats1/Lats2-EKO mice (Lats1/2-EKO) and induced hypercholesteremia with AAV8-PCSK9 injections and a high-fat diet (HFD). After HFD, we detected plaque erosion-like plaque lesions at the d-flow areas, which revealed strongly fibrin/fibrinogen-positive organized thrombus (OTh) formation without sizeable necrotic cores. In Lats1/2-EKO, we found significant increases in 1) EC proliferation, 2) EC apoptosis with senescent phenotype, 3) tissue factor (TF) expression, and 4) inflammation. Therefore, the phenotype observed in Lats1/2-EKO represents a unique senescence-associated stemness (SAS) phenotype, which allows EC to escape senescence-induced cell cycle arrest. The EC proliferation induced by depletion of LATS1/2 was YAP-dependent. In contrast, EC senescence induced by CD38-mediated NAD depletion was YAP-independent. These findings indicate that downregulating LATS1/2 expression-induced SAS leads to OTh via both YAP-dependent and independent mechanisms. OTh plays a key role in human atherosclerosis but is rarely observed in the mouse atherosclerosis model. Lats1/2-EKO can provide a valuable platform for studying the mechanism and unique role of EC SAS-induced OTh formation.
