Endomucin (EMCN) is a 261 AA transmembrane glycoprotein that is highly expressed by venous and capillary endothelial cells where it plays a role in VEGF-mediated angiogenesis and regulation of immune cell recruitment. However, it is better known as a histological marker, where it has become widespread due to the commercial availability of high-quality antibodies that work under a wide range of conditions and in many tissues. The specificity of EMCN staining has been well-validated in retinal vessels, but while it has been used extensively as a marker in other tissues of the eye, including the choroid, the pattern of expression has not been described in detail. Here, in addition to endothelial expression in the choriocapillaris and deeper vascular layers, we characterize a population of EMCN-positive perivascular cells in the mouse choroid that did not co-localize with cells expressing other endothelial markers such as PECAM1 or PODXL. To confirm that these cells represented a new population of EMCN-expressing stromal cells, we then performed single cell RNA sequencing in choroids from adult wild-type mice. Analysis of this new dataset confirmed that, in addition to endothelial cells, Emcn mRNA expression was present in choroidal pericytes and a subset of fibroblasts, but not vascular smooth muscle cells. Besides Emcn , no known endothelial gene expression was detected in these cell populations, confirming that they did not represent endothelial-stromal doublets, a common technical artifact in single cell RNA seq datasets. Instead, choroidal Emcn -expressing fibroblasts exhibited high levels of chemokine and interferon signaling genes, while Emcn -negative fibroblasts were enriched in genes encoding extracellular matrix proteins. Emcn expressing fibroblasts were also detected in published datasets from mouse brain and human choroid, suggesting that stromal Emcn expression was not unique to the choroid and was evolutionarily conserved. Together, these findings highlight unique fibroblast and pericyte populations in the choroid and provide new context for the role of EMCN in angiogenesis and immune cell recruitment.
