Microparticles from patients with metabolic syndrome induce vascular hypo-reactivity via Fas/Fas-ligand pathway in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Microparticles are membrane vesicles with pro-inflammatory properties. Circulating levels of microparticles have previously been found to be elevated in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS).

Leukocyte- and endothelial-derived microparticles: a circulating source for fibrinolysis
Haematologica, 2012 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 ...

On the Trail of Microparticles [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2009 Stimulation of a variety of cell types leads to the release of submicron vesicles that bud off from the plasma membrane. These so-called microparticles (MPs) or microvesicles are defined by their small size (0.1 to 1 μm) and the presence of surface antigens from the parental cells.1,2 MPs contribute to a variety of physiological and pathological ...
