Chromatins are pervasively attached by RNAs. Here, we asked whether global RNAchromatin contacts are altered in a given cell type in a disease context, and whether these alterations impact gene expression and cell function. In endothelial cells (ECs) treated by highglucose and TNFα, we employed single-cell RNA-sequencing and in situ mapping of RNAgenome interaction (iMARGI) assay to delineate temporal changes in transcriptome and RNAchromatin interactome. ECs displayed dramatic and heterogeneous changes in single cell transcriptome, accompanied by a dynamic and strong increase in inter-chromosomal RNA-DNA interactions, particularly among super enhancers (SEs). These SEs overlap with genes contributing to inflammatory response and endothelial mesenchymal transition (EndoMT), two key aspects of endothelial dysfunction. Perturbation of a high-glucose and TNFα-activated interaction involving SEs overlapping LINC00607 and SERPINE1 attenuated the pro-inflammatory and pro-EndoMT gene induction and EC dysfunction. Our findings highlight RNA-chromatin contacts as a crucial regulatory feature in biological and disease processes, exemplified by endothelial dysfunction, a major mediator of numerous diseases.
