Microvesicles: ROS scavengers and ROS producers [PDF]
This review analyzes the relationship between microvesicles and reactive oxygen species (ROS). This relationship is bidirectional; on the one hand, the number and content of microvesicles produced by the cells are affected by oxidative stress conditions;

Detection of microRNA Expression in Human Peripheral Blood Microvesicles [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate translation of mRNA and protein. Loss or enhanced expression of miRNAs is associated with several diseases, including cancer.

Cardiomyocyte Microvesicles Contain DNA/RNA and Convey Biological Messages to Target Cells [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Shedding microvesicles are membrane released vesicles derived directly from the plasma membrane. Exosomes are released membrane vesicles of late endosomal origin that share structural and biochemical characteristics with prostasomes ...

Tissue factor, factor VIII and IX in microvesicle-induced thrombosis and tumor growth of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Background Tissue factor (TF)-rich cancer microvesicles are correlated with thrombosis risk. Intrinsic coagulation factors are also associated with the risk of thrombosis in cancer patients.

Circulating extracellular microvesicles associated with electronic cigarette use increase endothelial cell inflammation and reduce nitric oxide production [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of circulating microvesicles isolated from chronic electronic (e‐)cigarette users on cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) expression of nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB), cellular cytokine ...
