Mechanobiology of microvesicle release, uptake, and microvesicle-mediated activation

2020
Microvesicles are small, membrane-bound vesicles that are shed from the plasma membrane of cells into the extracellular space. Microvesicles contain a variety of cargo not typically thought to be released from cells, including receptor tyrosine kinases, cytosolic signaling proteins, and microRNAs, which are transferred from donor cells to recipient ...

Microvesicles in Health and Disease

Archivum Immunologiae et Therapiae Experimentalis, 2012
Microvesicles (or MVs) are plasma membrane-derived vesicles released from most eukaryotic cells constitutively during early apoptosis or at higher levels after chemical or physical stress conditions. This review looks at some of the functions of MVs in terms of intercellular communication and ensuant signal transduction, including the transport of ...

Tumor-derived microvesicles: The metastasomes

Medical Hypotheses, 2013
Metastasis is the leading cause of cancer death, yet it is mechanistically considered a very inefficient process suggesting the presence of some sort of (e.g. systemic) routes for fuelling the process. The pre-metastatic niche formation is described as one such metastasis promoting route.

The role of microvesicles and its active molecules in regulating cellular biology

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2019
Cell‐derived microvesicles are membrane vesicles produced by the outward budding of the plasma membrane and released by almost all types of cells. These have been considered as another mechanism of intercellular communication, because they carry active ...

Microvesicles in Autoimmune Diseases

2016
During apoptosis or activation, cells can release a subcellular structure, called a membrane microvesicle (also known as microparticle) into the extracellular environment. Microvesicles bud-off as a portion of cell membrane with its associated proteins and lipids surrounding a cytosolic core that contains intracellular proteins, lipids, and nucleic ...

Microvesicles and exosomes for intracardiac communication

Cardiovascular Research, 2014
The heart is an organ with a complex mixture of well-organized interactions of different cell types that facilitate proper myocardial contractility, sufficient perfusion, balanced myocardial extracellular stiffness, and controlled functioning of the immune system.

Microvesicles and pre-eclampsia

Pregnancy Hypertension: An International Journal of Women's Cardiovascular Health, 2013
The maternal syndrome of pre-eclampsia is characterised by an excessive inflammatory response associated with endothelial dysfunction, brought about by the release of multiple factors from the placenta into the maternal circulation. While some of these factors are released as soluble molecules it is now apparent that many of them are associated with ...

Blood/plasma secretome and microvesicles

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Proteins and Proteomics, 2013
A major but hitherto overseen component of the blood/plasma secretome is that of extracellular vesicles (EVs) which are shed from all blood cell types. These EVs are made up of microvesicles (MVs) and exosomes. MVs, 100nm-1μm in diameter, are released from the cell surface, and are a rich source of non-conventionally secreted proteins lacking a ...
