Cell-derived microparticles and the lung [PDF]
Cell-derived microparticles are small (0.1–1 μm) vesicles shed by most eukaryotic cells upon activation or during apoptosis. Microparticles carry on their surface, and enclose within their cytoplasm, molecules derived from the parental cell, including ...

Correlations Between the Circulating Level of Cell-Derived Microparticles and Surgical Variables in Heart Valve Surgery with Cardiopulmonary Bypass [PDF]
Background: Cell-derived microparticles (MPs) as membrane vesicles are procoagulant. They play a role in surgical hemostasis. In this study, the correlations between the circulating level of cell-derived MPs and surgical variables in heart valve surgery

The Role of Cell-derived Microparticles in Cardiovascular Diseases: Current Concepts
Abstract: Cardiovascular disease remains the main cause of human morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Microparticles (MPs) are small vesicles originating from the cell membrane as a result of various stimuli and particularly of biological processes that constitute the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, such as endothelial damage. They form

Influence of red blood cell-derived microparticles upon vasoregulation. [PDF]
Here we review recent data and the evolving understanding of the role of red blood cell-derived microparticles (RMPs) in normal physiology and in disease progression. Microparticles (MPs) are small membrane vesicles derived from various parent cell types.

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived microparticles: a promising therapeutic strategy. [PDF]
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells that give rise to various cell types of the mesodermal germ layer. Because of their unique ability to home in on injured and cancerous tissues, MSCs are of great potential in regenerative medicine.

Tumor cell-derived microparticles: a new form of cancer vaccine. [PDF]
For cancer vaccines, tumor antigen availability is currently not an issue due to technical advances. However, the generation of optimal immune stimulation during vaccination is challenging. We have recently demonstrated that tumor cell-derived microparticles (MP) can function as a new form of potent cancer vaccine by efficiently activating type I ...

A novel broadband impedance method for detection of cell-derived microparticles [PDF]
A novel label-free method is presented to detect and quantify cell-derived microparticles (MPs) by the electrochemical potential-modulated electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). MPs are present in elevated concentrations during pathological conditions and play a major role in the establishment and pathogenesis of many diseases. Considering this,
