Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome is an autosomal dominant predisposition to cancer in neurological tissues, the kidneys, adrenal glands, pancreas, and liver, including neurological hemangioblastoma (HB), pheochromocytoma (PCC), pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET), pancreatic and renal cysts, and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The disease process follows Knudson's two-hit model, requiring spontaneous loss or mutation of a normal VHL tumor suppressor allele to induce expression of the disease. VHL syndrome principally involves dysregulation of oxygen sensing pathways including the Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF)-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-A (VEGF-A) and HIF-Erythropoietin (EPO) pathways. RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data from our previously published experiments revealed a potentially novel VEGF-A splice variant with excision of the VEGF Receptor-1 (VEGFR-1)/Flt-1 binding domain, rendering this isoform resistant to native down-regulation. Additionally, phenotypic changes were observed in adult VHL mutant mice, specifically very red appearing extremities with prominently visible vasculature. In order to determine the etiology of this phenotype, we observed red blood cell count, Epo gene expression levels, and arterialization of the blood vessels in these experimental mice as compared to littermate controls. Current research into the VEGF-A isoform is ongoing in the lab, and preliminary evidence for the etiology of the apparent chronic erythema phenotype is inconclusive due to lack of experimental replicates due to COVID-19 quarantine orders.
