Blockade of the kallikrein-kinin system reduces endothelial complement activation in vascular inflammationResearch in context

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2019
Background: The complement and kallikrein-kinin systems (KKS) are activated during vascular inflammation. The aim of this study was to investigate if blockade of the KKS can affect complement activation on the endothelium during inflammation.

Circulating Microvesicles in Regenerative Angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Trends in Biomedical Engineering & Biosciences, 2017
Extracellular microvesicles (EVs) released by different cells have been shown to facilitate the transfer of several pro-angiogenic as well as anti-antigenic factors that can regulate gene expression in endothelial cells. Our recent study has demonstrated that the profiles of cytokines and angiogenic-active factors in EVs are significantly changed in ...

Commonalities of platelet dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and underlying comorbidities

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1013-1028, April 2025.
Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by a lack of a specific targeted treatment and a complex, partially unexplored pathophysiology. Common comorbidities associated with HFpEF are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, obesity and diabetes.

Thromboinflammatory effects of RBC microvesicles [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2020
In this issue of Blood, Noubouossie et al provide new insights into potential mechanisms for thromboinflammatory complications associated with red blood cell (RBC) transfusions. By using leukoreduced RBC units to isolate RBC microvesicles (RBC-MVs), they document that RBC-MVs activate factor IX (FIX) via 2 distinct pathways: (1) the canonical ...

Structural characterization of platelets and platelet microvesicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.Platelets are blood cells without nuclei, which, in conjunction with fibrin, cause bleeding to stop (hemostasis). Cellular microvesicles are microscopic particles released into extracellular space under activation and/or ...

trans-Sialidase is shed in microvesicles.

open access: yes, 2016
Western blots of microvesicles purified by two independent methods, Exoquick kit (A) and ultracentrifugation (B), show TS presence only in the microvesicles fraction. Mucins were found predominantly in microvesicles although also to a minor extent in the

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

Method for isolation and molecular characterization of extracellular microvesicles released from brain endothelial cells

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2013
Background In addition to possessing intracellular vesicles, eukaryotic cells also produce extracellular microvesicles, ranging from 50 to 1000 nm in diameter that are released or shed into the microenvironment under physiological and pathological ...

Shiga Toxin-Bearing Microvesicles Exert a Cytotoxic Effect on Recipient Cells Only When the Cells Express the Toxin Receptor

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Shiga toxin is the main virulence factor of non-invasive enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli strains capable of causing hemolytic uremic syndrome. Our group has previously shown that the toxin can reach the kidney within microvesicles where it is taken up
