New horizons in the analysis of circulating cell-derived microparticles

The Keio Journal of Medicine, 2004
Analysis of circulating cell-derived microparticles (MP) is becoming more refined and clinically useful. This review, stemming from lectures given at Tokyo late 2003, does not repeat prior reviews but focuses on new horizons. A major theme is the rising recognition of platelets and their MP (PMP) as key mediators of inflammation/immunity.

Off-axis gyration induces large-area circular motion of anisotropic microparticles in a dynamic magnetic trap [PDF]

, 2021
Magnetic tweezers are crucial for single-molecule and atomic characterization, and biomedical isolation of microparticle carriers. The trapping component of magnetic tweezing can be relying on a magnetic potential well that can confine the relevant species to a localized region.

Fetal hemoglobin and hydroxycarbamide moduate both plasma concentration and cellular origin of circulating microparticles in sickle cell anemia children

Haematologica, 2013
Microparticles are cell membrane-derived microvesicles released during cell apoptosis and activation processes. They have been described as bio-markers in various vascular diseases, including sickle cell anemia, and associated with an increased risk of ...

Circulating Red Cell–derived Microparticles in Human Malaria [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2011
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.

Circulating erythrocyte-derived microparticles are associated with coagulation activation in sickle cell disease

Haematologica, 2009
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

Microparticles in multiple sclerosis and clinically isolated syndrome: effect on endothelial barrier function. [PDF]

, 2014
Background Cell-derived microparticles are secreted in response to cell damage or dysfunction. Endothelial and platelet dysfunction are thought to contribute to the development of multiple sclerosis (MS).

Release of Prometastatic Platelet-Derived Microparticles Induced by Breast Cancer Cells: A Novel Positive Feedback Mechanism for Metastasis

TH Open, 2017
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.

Predicting disease progression in advanced non-small cell lung cancer with circulating neutrophil-derived and platelet-derived microparticles

BMC Cancer, 2021
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.

Spatial distribution of Dust Density Wave Properties in Fluid Complex Plasmas [PDF]

, 2021
Complex plasmas consist of microparticles embedded in a low-temperature plasma and allow investigating various effects by tracing the motion of these microparticles. Dust density waves appear in complex plasmas as self-excited acoustic waves in the microparticle fluid at low neutral gas pressures.

Human Myoblast and Mesenchymal Stem Cell Interactions Visualized by Videomicroscopy. [PDF]

, 2015
Muscle-derived progenitor cell (myoblast) therapy has promise for the treatment of denervated, weakened, and fibrotic muscle. The best methods for injecting myoblasts to promote fusion and retention have yet to be determined, however.
