Background Sickle cell disease is characterized by a hypercoagulable state as a result of multiple factors, including chronic hemolysis and circulating cell-derived microparticles. There is still no consensus on the cellular origin of such microparticles

Circulating platelets and platelet-derived microparticles are regulators of cancer metastasis. In this study, we show that breast cancer cells induce platelet aggregation and lead to the release of platelet-derived microparticles.

Proteome of endothelial cell‐derived procoagulant microparticles
AbstractMicroparticles (MP) are small membrane vesicles that are released from cells upon activation or during apoptosis. Cellular MP in body fluids constitute a heterogeneous population, differing in cellular origin, numbers, size, antigenic composition and functional properties.

Circulating Red Cell–derived Microparticles in Human Malaria [PDF]
In patients with falciparum malaria, plasma concentrations of cell-derived microparticles correlate with disease severity. Using flow cytometry, we quantified red blood cell-derived microparticles (RMPs) in patients with malaria and identified the source and the factors associated with production.

Background Circulating microparticles have emerged as biomarkers and effectors of vascular disease. Elevated rates of cardiovascular disease are seen in HIV‐1–seropositive individuals.

Background Microparticles (MPs) are extracellular vesicles that are associated with cancer development and progression. Advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) still shows disease progression after multiple lines of treatment.

Background: We aim to investigate whether circulating microparticle (CMPs) subsets were raised amongst people presenting with a new diagnosis of HIV and advanced immune suppression in Malawi, and whether they associated with arterial stiffness.

Cell-Derived Microparticles in the Pathogenesis of Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Microparticles are ascribed important roles in coagulation, inflammation, and endothelial function. These processes are mandatory to safeguard the integrity of the organism, and their derangements contribute to the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.

Leukocyte- and endothelial-derived microparticles: a circulating source for fibrinolysis
Background We recently assigned a new fibrinolytic function to cell-derived microparticles in vitro. In this study we explored the relevance of this novel property of microparticles to the in vivo situation.Design and Methods Circulating microparticles ...
