Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracellular vesicles (EVs), shed in response to cell activation, stress, or injury, are increased in the blood of patients with cardiovascular disease. EVs are characterized by expressing parental-cell antigens, allowing the determination of their cellular origin. Platelet-derived EVs (pEVs) are the most abundant in blood. Although not universally given, EVs generally express phosphatidylserine (PS) in their membrane. OBJECTIVES To investigate pEVs in chronic and acute conditions, such as chronic heart failure (CHF) and first-onset acute coronary syndrome (ACS), in patients treated as per guidelines. METHODS EVs in CHF patients (n = 119), ACS patients (n = 58), their respective controls (non-CHF [n = 21] and non-ACS [n = 24], respectively), and a reference control group (n = 31) were characterized and quantified by flow cytometry, using monoclonal antibodies against platelet antigens, and annexin V (AV) to determine PS exposure. RESULTS CHF patients had higher EVs-PS- numbers, while ACS had predominantly EVs-PS+. In contrast to ACS, CHF patients had significantly reduced numbers of pEVs carrying PECAM and αIIb-integrin epitopes (CD31+/AV+, CD41a+/AV+, and CD31+/CD41a+/AV+), while no differences were observed in P-selectin-rich pEVs (CD62P+/AV+) compared with controls. Additionally, background etiology of CHF (ischemic vs. nonischemic) or ACS type (ST-elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI] vs. non-STEMI [NSTEMI]) did not affect pEV levels. CONCLUSION PS exposure in EV and pEV-release differ between CHF and ACS patients, with tentatively different functional capacities beyond coagulation to inflammation and cross-talk with other cell types.

Red Blood Cells and Endothelium Derived Circulating Extracellular Vesicles in Health and Chronic Heart Failure: A Focus on Phosphatidylserine Dynamics in Vesiculation. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:11824. [PMID: 37511585 PMCID: PMC10380787 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241411824] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Circulating extracellular microvesicles (cEVs) are characterised by presenting surface antigens of parental cells. Since their biogenesis involves the translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS) from the inner to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, exposed PS has been considered as a recognition hallmark of cEVs. However, not all cEVs externalise PS. In this study, we have phenotypically and quantitatively characterised cEVs by flow cytometry, paying special attention to the proportions of PS in chronic heart failure patients (cHF; n = 119) and a reference non-HF group (n = 21). PS--cEVs were predominantly found in both groups. Parental markers showed differential pattern depending on the PS exposure. Endothelium-derived and connexin 43-rich cEVs were mainly PS--cEVs and significantly increased in cHF. On the contrary, platelet-derived cEVs were mostly PS+ and were increased in the non-HF group. We observed similar levels of PS+- and PS--cEVs in non-HF subjects when analysing immune cell-derived Evs, but there was a subset-specific difference in cHF patients. Indeed, those cEVs carrying CD45+, CD29+, CD11b+, and CD15+ were mainly PS+-cEVs, while those carrying CD14+, CD3+, and CD56+ were mainly PS--cEVs. In conclusion, endothelial and red blood cells are stressed in cHF patients, as detected by a high shedding of cEVs. Despite PS+-cEVs and PS--cEVs representing two distinct cEV populations, their release and potential function as both biomarkers and shuttles for cell communication seem unrelated to their PS content.

Abstract
Novel biomarkers of heart failure are the subject of numerous studies. Biomarkers of heart failure can be determined in the blood and in the urine. Seven groups of biomarkers of heart failure based on pathophysiological mechanisms are presented in this review, namely biomarkers of myocardial stretch, myocyte injury, myocardial remodeling, biomarkers of inflammation, renal dysfunction, neurohumoral activation, and oxidative stress. Studies of biomarkers in the pediatric population are scarce, therefore, further investigation is needed for reliable prognostic and therapeutic implications. The future of biomarker use is in multimarker panels that include a combination of biomarkers with different pathophysiological mechanisms in order to improve their diagnostic and prognostic predictive value.

Abstract
Abstract:
Cardiovascular disease remains the main cause of human morbidity and mortality in the developed countries. Microparticles (MPs) are small vesicles originating from the cell membrane as a result of various stimuli and particularly of biological processes that constitute the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, such as endothelial damage. They form vesicles that can transfer various molecules and signals to remote target cells without direct cell to cell interaction. Circulating microparticles have been associated with cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, many studies have been designed to further investigate the role of microparticles as biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and disease monitoring. To this concept the pro-thrombotic and atherogenic potential of platelets and endothelial derived MPs has gain research interest especially concerning accelerate atherosclerosis and acute coronary syndrome triggering and prognosis. MPs especially of endothelial origin have been investigated in different clinical scenarios of heart failure and in association of left ventricular loading conditions. Finally, most cardiovascular risk factors present unique patterns of circulating MPs population, highlighting their pathophysiologic link to cardiovascular disease progression. In this review article we present a synopsis of the biogenesis and characteristics of microparticles, as well as the most recent data concerning their implication in the cardiovascular settings.

Imbalance between the circulating endothelium-derived apoptotic microparticles and the endothelial colony-forming units of progenitor cells in patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography. Adv Med Sci 2021; 66:396-402. [PMID: 34375819 DOI: 10.1016/j.advms.2021.07.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2021] [Revised: 04/04/2021] [Accepted: 07/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The involvement of the circulating endothelium-derived microparticles (EMPs) and the endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) has been shown in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The current study aimed to explore whether the Friesinger index is associated with the levels of the apoptotic CD144+/CD31+/annexin V+ EMPs and the number of endothelial colony-forming units of progenitor cells in patients undergoing coronary angiography. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty-seven patients with a median age of 62 years (range: 48-84 years) were enrolled. Quantification of the apoptotic CD144+/CD31+/annexin V+ EMPs was performed by flow cytometry. The number of endothelial colony-forming units defined by CFU-Hill was assessed by cell culture. RESULTS There was a positive correlation between the Friesinger index and the circulating levels of the apoptotic CD144+/CD31+/annexin V+ EMPs (rho=0.817, p<0.001), whereas a negative correlation was found with the number of CFU-Hill (rho = - 0.649, p<0.001). Multivariable logistic analysis showed that the risk of having moderate/severe CAD was five times greater among male patients (OR:5.32; 95% CI: 1.19 - 16.33; p=0.038) and almost one and a half times higher among those with a higher level of apoptotic CD144+/CD31+/annexin V+ EMPs (OR:1.74; 95% CI: 1.23 - 2.28; p=0.001). Finally, the circulating levels of apoptotic EMPs labelled for CD144+/CD31+/annexin V+ presented a good discrimination of moderate/severe CAD, with an AUC of 0.85 (95% CI = 0.74 - 0.96; p< 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Moderate or severe CAD is associated with increased levels of apoptotic EMPs and reduced EPC colony-forming capacity, increasing the occurrence of endothelial injuries.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) due to novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected the global society in numerous unprecedented ways, with considerable morbidity and mortality. Both direct and indirect consequences from COVID-19 infection are recognized to give rise to cardio- and cerebrovascular complications. Despite current limited knowledge on COVID-19 pathogenesis, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and coagulopathy appear to play critical roles in COVID-19-associated cerebrovascular disease (CVD). One of the major subtypes of CVD is cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) which represents a spectrum of pathological processes of various etiologies affecting the brain microcirculation that can trigger subsequent neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. Prevalent with aging, CSVD is a recognized risk factor for stroke, vascular dementia, and Alzheimer's disease. In the background of COVID-19 infection, the heightened cellular activations from inflammations and oxidative stress may result in elevated levels of microthrombogenic extracellular-derived circulating microparticles (MPs). Consequently, MPs could act as pro-coagulant risk factor that may serve as microthrombi for the vulnerable microcirculation in the brain leading to CSVD manifestations. This review aims to appraise the accumulating body of evidence on the plausible impact of COVID-19 infection on the formation of microthrombogenic MPs that could lead to microthrombosis in CSVD manifestations, including occult CSVD which may last well beyond the pandemic era.

Abstract
Endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction causes a number of early and life-threatening post hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) complications that result in a rapid clinical decline. The main early complications are graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD), transplant associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA), and sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). Post-HCT endothelial dysfunction occurs as a result of chemotherapy, infections, and allogeneic reactivity. Despite major advances in transplant immunology and improvements in supportive care medicine, these complications represent a major obstacle for successful HCT. In recent years, different biomarkers have been investigated for early detection of post-transplant endothelial cell dysfunction, but few have been validated. In this review we will define GVHD, TA-TMA and SOS, summarize the current data available in HCT biomarker research and identify promising biomarkers for detection and diagnosis of early HCT complications.

Abstract
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) represents a spectrum of pathological processes of various etiologies affecting the brain microcirculation that can trigger neuroinflammation and the subsequent neurodegenerative cascade. Prevalent with aging, CSVD is a recognized risk factor for stroke, vascular dementia, Alzheimer disease, and Parkinson disease. Despite being the most common neurodegenerative condition with cerebrocardiovascular axis, understanding about it remains poor. Interestingly, modifiable risk factors such as unhealthy diet including high intake of processed food, high-fat foods, and animal by-products are known to influence the non-neural peripheral events, such as in the gastrointestinal tract and cardiovascular stress through cellular inflammation and oxidation. One key outcome from such events, among others, includes the cellular activations that lead to elevated levels of endogenous cellular-derived circulating microparticles (MPs). MPs can be produced from various cellular origins including leukocytes, platelets, endothelial cells, microbiota, and microglia. MPs could act as microthrombogenic procoagulant that served as a plausible culprit for the vulnerable end-artery microcirculation in the brain as the end-organ leading to CSVD manifestations. However, little attention has been paid on the potential role of MPs in the onset and progression of CSVD spectrum. Corroboratively, the formation of MPs is known to be influenced by diet-induced cellular stress. Thus, this review aims to appraise the body of evidence on the dietary-related impacts on circulating MPs from non-neural peripheral origins that could serve as a plausible microthrombosis in CSVD manifestation as a precursor of neurodegeneration. Here, we elaborate on the pathomechanical features of MPs in health and disease states; relevance of dietary patterns on MP release; preclinical studies pertaining to diet-based MPs contribution to disease; MP level as putative surrogates for early disease biomarkers; and lastly, the potential of MPs manipulation with diet-based approach as a novel preventive measure for CSVD in an aging society worldwide.

Concentration of circulating microparticles: a new biomarker of acute heart failure after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. SCIENCE CHINA-LIFE SCIENCES 2020; 64:107-116.

Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a severe complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Although some AHF biomarkers have been used in clinic, they have limitations when applied in the prediction and diagnosis of AHF after cardiac surgery with CPB, and there are still no effective and specific biomarkers. We and other researchers have shown that circulating microparticles (MPs) increased in a variety of cardiovascular diseases. However, whether the concentration of circulating MPs could be a new biomarker for AHF after cardiac surgery remains unknown. Here, 90 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB and 45 healthy subjects were enrolled. Patients were assigned into AHF (n=14) or non-AHF (n=76) group according to the diagnosis criteria of AHF. The concentrations of circulating MPs were determined before, as well as 12 h and 3 days after operation with nanoparticle tracking analysis technique. MPs concentrations in patients before surgery were significantly higher than those of healthy subjects. Plasma levels of MPs were significantly elevated at 12 h after surgery in patients with AHF, but not in those without AHF, and the circulating MPs concentrations at 12 h after surgery were higher in AHF group compared with non-AHF group. Logistic regression analysis indicated that MPs concentration at postoperative 12 h was an independent risk factor for AHF. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve for MPs concentration at postoperative 12 h was 0.81 and the best cut-off value is 5.20×108 particles mL-1 with a sensitivity of 93% and a specificity of 10%. These data suggested that the concentration of circulating MPs might be a new biomarker for the occurrence of AHF after cardiac surgery with CPB.

Changes in circulating endothelial microvesicles in men after myocardial infarction. Adv Med Sci 2020; 65:120-126. [PMID: 31927269 DOI: 10.1016/j.advms.2019.12.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2019] [Revised: 09/19/2019] [Accepted: 12/03/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of the study was to determine the differences in the numbers of endothelial microvesicles (EMV) after myocardial infarction (MI) and their association with oxidative stress. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included 15 post MI patients and 28 healthy controls. Samples were analysed by flow cytometry. We examined four EMV populations: 1) CD144+, CD42a-, CD61-, 2) CD144+, CD42a+, CD61-, 3) CD105+, CD42a-, CD61-and 4) CD31+, CD42a-, CD61-and determined a percentage of CD62e + EMV. Malondialdehyde concentration was determined by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS The median of EMV counts differed between controls and patients in: CD105+ (10.91 microvesicles/μl vs. 33.68 microvesicles/μl, P = 0.006), CD144+, CD42a+ (312.87 microvesicles/μl vs. 73.29 microvesicles/μl, P < 0.001) and CD31+ (2 microvesicles/μl vs. 1.38 microvesicles/μl, P = 0.021). The median of percentage of CD62e expression differed between controls and patients in: CD105+ (1.35% vs. 14.8%, P < 0.001), CD144+, CD42a+ (56.45% vs. 98.99%, P < 0.001) and CD144+, CD42a- (173.03% vs. 215.56%) EMV. In patients, EMV counts correlated with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations: CD105+: R = -0.69, P = 0.004 (LDL-C), R = -0.64, P = 0.01 (TC); CD144+, CD42a-: R = -0.68, P = 0.005 (LDL-C), R = -0.63, P = 0.011 (TC); CD144+: R = -0.54, P = 0.038 (HDL-C) and CD144+, CD42a-, CD62e+: R = 0.78, P = 0.001 (HDL-C). In controls, HDL-C concentration correlated with CD105+ (R = -0.395, P = 0.038) and CD105+, CD62e+ (R = -0.716, P < 0.001) counts. Malondialdehyde concentration correlated with CD144+, CD42a- (P = 0.01, R = 0.48) and CD105+, CD62e+ (P = 0.012, R = 0.47) counts. CONCLUSIONS Changes in EMV levels after the MI period were observed. Counts of EMV and their CD62e expression correlated with dyslipidaemia and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Hypertension, an important cause of chronic kidney disease, is characterized by peritubular capillary (PTC) loss. Circulating levels of endothelial microparticles (EMPs) reflect systemic endothelial injury. We hypothesized that systemic and urinary PTC-EMPs levels would reflect renal microvascular injury in hypertensive patients. We prospectively measured by flow cytometry renal vein, inferior vena cava, and urinary levels of EMPs in essential (n=14) and renovascular (RVH; n=24) hypertensive patients and compared them with peripheral blood and urinary levels in healthy volunteers (n=14). PTC-EMPs were identified as urinary exosomes positive for the PTC marker plasmalemmal-vesicle-associated protein. In 7 RVH patients, PTC and fibrosis were also quantified in renal biopsy, and in 18 RVH patients, PTC-EMPs were measured again 3 months after continued medical therapy with or without stenting (n=9 each). Renal vein and systemic PTC-EMPs levels were not different among the groups, whereas their urinary levels were elevated in both RVH and essential hypertension versus healthy volunteers (56.8%±12.7% and 62.8%±10.7% versus 34.0%±17.8%; both P≤0.001). Urinary PTC-EMPs levels correlated directly with blood pressure and inversely with estimated glomerular filtration rate. Furthermore, in RVH, urinary PTC-EMPs levels correlated directly with stenotic kidney hypoxia, histological PTC count, and fibrosis and inversely with cortical perfusion. Three months after treatment, the change in urinary PTC-EMPs levels correlated inversely with a change in renal function ( r=-0.582; P=0.011). Therefore, urinary PTC-EMPs levels are increased in hypertensive patients and may reflect renal microcirculation injury, whereas systemic PTC-EMPs levels are unchanged. Urinary PTC-EMPs may be useful as novel biomarkers of intrarenal capillary loss.

Abstract
Microparticles are a distinctive group of small vesicles, without nucleus, which are involved as significant modulators in several physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms. Plasma microparticles from various cellular lines have been subject of research. Data suggest that they are key players in development and manifestation of cardiovascular diseases and their presence, in high levels, is associated with chronic inflammation, endothelial damage and thrombosis. The strong correlation of microparticle levels with several outcomes in cardiovascular diseases has led to their utilization as biomarkers. Despite the limited clinical application at present, their significance emerges, mainly because their detection and enumeration methods are improving. This review article summarizes the evidence derived from research, related with the genesis and the function of microparticles in the presence of various cardiovascular risk factors and conditions. The current data provide a substrate for several theories of how microparticles influence various cellular mechanisms by transferring biological information.

Abstract
Platelets protect the vascular system during damage or inflammation, but platelet activation can result in pathological thrombosis. Activated platelets release a variety of extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs shed from the plasma membrane often expose phosphatidylserine (PS). These EVs are pro-thrombotic and increased in number in many cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. The mechanisms by which PS-exposing EVs are shed from activated platelets are not well characterised. Cholesterol-rich lipid rafts provide a platform for coordinating signalling through receptors and Ca2+ channels in platelets. We show that cholesterol depletion with methyl-β-cyclodextrin or sequestration with filipin prevented the Ca2+-triggered release of PS-exposing EVs. Although calpain activity was required for release of PS-exposing, calpain-dependent cleavage of talin was not affected by cholesterol depletion. P2Y12 and TPα, receptors for ADP and thromboxane A2, respectively, have been reported to be in platelet lipid rafts. However, the P2Y12 antagonist, AR-C69931MX, or the cyclooxygenase inhibitor, aspirin, had no effect on A23187-induced release of PS-exposing EVs. Together, these data show that lipid rafts are required for release of PS-exposing EVs from platelets.

Abstract
Although it is widely recognized that inflammation plays a critical role in the development and pathology of heart failure (HF), very little is known about the involvement of one of the most abundant immune cells in the blood, a primary immune response cell: the neutrophil. This review summarizes the current literature on the role of subclinical inflammation, with a focus on the neutrophil in the pathophysiology of the HF syndrome. Some emerging therapeutic strategies are also discussed.

Abstract
Biological markers have served for diagnosis, risk stratification and guided therapy of heart failure (HF). Our knowledge regarding abilities of biomarkers to relate to several pathways of HF pathogenesis and reflect clinical worsening or improvement in the disease is steadily expanding. Although there are numerous clinical guidelines, which clearly diagnosis, prevention and evidence-based treatment of HF, a strategy regarding exclusion of HF, as well as risk stratification of HF, nature evolution of disease is not well established and requires more development. The aim of the chapter is to discuss a role of biomarker-based approaches for more accurate diagnosis, in-depth risk stratification and individual targeting in treatment of patients with HF.

Insights into the Diagnostic Potential of Extracellular Vesicles and Their miRNA Signature from Liquid Biopsy as Early Biomarkers of Diabetic Micro/Macrovascular Complications. Int J Mol Sci 2017; 18:ijms18091974.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent a heterogeneous population of small vesicles, consisting of a phospholipidic bilayer surrounding a soluble interior cargo. Almost all cell types release EVs, thus they are naturally present in all body fluids. Among the several potential applications, EVs could be used as drug delivery vehicles in disease treatment, in immune therapy because of their immunomodulatory properties and in regenerative medicine. In addition to general markers, EVs are characterized by the presence of specific biomarkers (proteins and miRNAs) that allow the identification of their cell or tissue origin. For these features, they represent a potential powerful diagnostic tool to monitor state and progression of specific diseases. A large body of studies supports the idea that endothelial derived (EMPs) together with platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) are deeply involved in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by micro- and macrovascular damages, including diabetes. Existing literature suggests that the detection of circulating EMPs and PMPs and their specific miRNA profile may represent a very useful non-invasive signature to achieve information on the onset of peculiar disease manifestations. In this review, we discuss the possible utility of EVs in the early diagnosis of diabetes-associated microvascular complications, specifically related to kidney.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) continues to have a sufficient impact on morbidity, mortality, and disability in developed countries. Growing evidence supports the hypothesis that microparticles (MPs) might contribute to the pathogenesis of the HF development playing a pivotal role in the regulation of the endogenous repair system, thrombosis, coagulation, inflammation, immunity, and metabolic memory phenomenon. Therefore, there is a large body of data clarifying the predictive value of MP numerous in circulation among subjects with HF. Although the determination of MP signature is better than measurement of single MP circulating level, there is not yet close confirmation that immune phenotype of cells produced MPs are important for HF prediction and development. The aim of the chapter is to summarize knowledge regarding the role of various MPs in diagnosis and prognosis of HF. The role of MPs as a delivery vehicle for drugs attenuated cardiac remodeling is considered.

Abstract
Chronic heart failure (HF) is a leading clinical and public problem posing a higher risk of morbidity and mortality in different populations. HF appears to be in both phenotypic forms: HF with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HF with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF). Although both HF phenotypes can be distinguished through clinical features, co-morbidity status, prediction score, and treatment, the clinical outcomes in patients with HFrEF and HFpEF are similar. In this context, investigation of various molecular and cellular mechanisms leading to the development and progression of both HF phenotypes is very important. There is emerging evidence that epigenetic regulation may have a clue in the pathogenesis of HF. This review represents current available evidence regarding the implication of epigenetic modifications in the development of different HF phenotypes and perspectives of epigenetic-based therapies of HF.
