Microparticles and Cancer

Pathophysiology of Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 2007
Cancer is a prothrombotic state, with an increased prevalence of arterial and venous thromboemboli. Microparticles (MPs) are sub-micron-sized vesicles derived from activated or apoptotic cancer cells and/or host cells that may causally contribute to these clinical events, although the strength of the evidence thus far is inconclusive.

Microparticle dispenser

Review of Scientific Instruments, 1978
A simple device suitable for dispensing laser fusion target fuel cores is described. These fuel cores are typically 100-μm-diam glass or metal microballoons having a wall thickness of 1 μm. The microparticle dispenser mechanically acquires a single microballoon and dispenses it at a given position, eliminating the previously difficult and time ...

Microparticles with neuroactive agents

Journal of Microencapsulation, 1995
An overview of biodegradable and biocompatible microcapsules and microspheres loaded with neuroactive substances, or cells producing neuroactive substances, and their role as drug delivery systems (DDS) for drug administration to the central nervous system (CNS) is given. In addition, closely related systems are also summarized.

Measurement of Platelet Microparticles [PDF]

open access: possible, 2011
Platelet microparticles are submicron vesicles that can support thrombin generation on externalized negatively charged phospholipids. Increased numbers of circulating platelet microparticles have been investigated as the basis of hypercoagulability in a variety of prothrombotic conditions.

Microparticles in tumor progression

Thrombosis Research, 2012
Microparticles (MP) are shed from the surface of activated or apoptotic blood cells and their levels in plasma reflect a balance between cell stimulation, proliferation, and death. MP production occurs through vesiculation of cell membranes, and involves cytoskeletal changes and a shift in the normal phospholipid asymmetry.

Microparticles in Health and Disease

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2008
Microparticles (MPs) are small fragments of membrane-bound cytoplasm that are shed from the surface of an activated or apoptotic cell. Recently, their function as vectors of transcellular exchange of biologic information, in addition to better described forms of intercellular communication such as growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines, has become ...

Endothelial microparticles in diseases

Cell and Tissue Research, 2008
Microparticles are submicron vesicles shed from plasma membranes in response to cell activation, injury, and/or apoptosis. The measurement of the phospholipid content (mainly phosphatidylserine; PSer) of microparticles and the detection of proteins specific for the cells from which they are derived has allowed their quantification and characterization.
