Abstract
Extracellular vesicles have emerged as promising tools in regenerative medicine due to their inherent ability to facilitate intercellular communication and modulate cellular functions. These nanosized vesicles transport bioactive molecules, such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which can affect the behavior of recipient cells and promote tissue regeneration. However, the therapeutic application of these vesicles is frequently constrained by their rapid clearance from the body and inability to maintain a sustained presence at the injury site. In order to overcome these obstacles, hydrogels have been used as extracellular vesicle delivery vehicles, providing a localized and controlled release system that improves their therapeutic efficacy. This Review will examine the role of extracellular vesicle-loaded hydrogels in tissue regeneration, discussing potential applications, current challenges, and future directions. We will investigate the origins, composition, and characterization techniques of extracellular vesicles, focusing on recent advances in exosome profiling and the role of machine learning in this field. In addition, we will investigate the properties of hydrogels that make them ideal extracellular vesicle carriers. Recent studies utilizing this combination for tissue regeneration will be highlighted, providing a comprehensive overview of the current research landscape and potential future directions.

Ascorbic acid prevents stress-induced hypercoagulability in overweight and obese individuals. Sci Rep 2024; 14:3122. [PMID: 38326408 PMCID: PMC10850162 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-53794-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Ascorbic acid (AA) may contribute to restoring hemostatic balance after mental stress (MS) in overweight/obese adults. We aimed to determine the effects of AA administration on hemostatic responses to MS in overweight/obese men. Fourteen overweight/obesity men (27 ± 7 years; BMI: 29.7 ± 2.6 kg m-2) performed the Stroop color-word stress task for 5 min after non-simultaneous infusion of placebo (PL, 0.9% NaCl) and AA (3 g). Blood was collected at baseline, during MS, and 60 min after MS to measure: activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, and fibrinogen concentration, by coagulometer; platelet-derived microvesicles (PMV, mv/μL), by flow cytometry; nitrite (μM), by chemiluminescence. In PL session, MS led to decreases in PTs (stress, p = 0.03; 60 min, p < 0.001), PT-INR (stress, p < 0.001; 60 min, p < 0.01), aPTTs (60 min, p = 0.03), aPTT ratio (60 min, p = 0.04) and fibrinogen (60 min, p = 0.04), while increased PT activity (60 min, p = 0.01) when compared to baseline. Furthermore, AA increased PTs (60 min, p < 0.001), PT-INR (60 min, p = 0.03) and decreased PT activity (60 min, p < 0.001) and fibrinogen (stress, p = 0.04) when compared to PL. Nitrite was increased in response to stress during AA session (p < 0.001 vs PL). There was no difference in PMV. Ascorbic acid prevented the impaired hemostatic profile and improved nitrite response to stress in the overweight and obese adults.

Platelet to albumin ratio: A risk factor related to prognosis in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Int J Cardiol 2024; 395:131588. [PMID: 37989451 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2023.131588] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCAD) is recognized as a chronic subclinical systemic inflammatory condition. The platelet-albumin ratio (PAR) has shown promise in prognosticating various inflammation-related disorders. Our study aimed to assess the connection between PAR and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-treated patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). METHODS PAR, derived from platelet and albumin counts, categorized participants into four quartiles. The primary outcome was composite MACE, encompassing all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and ischemia-driven revascularization. Secondary outcomes comprised individual MACE components. Multivariate Cox regression evaluated PAR's independent impact on adverse events. The non-linear relationship between the PAR value and MACE was explored using a restricted cubic spline (RCS). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was conducted and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated. Subgroup analysis was used to determine the effect of PAR on MACE in different subgroups. RESULTS Enrolling 1391 NSTE-ACS patients, high PAR quartiles were correlated with elevated MACE rates (quartile 4 vs. quartile 1: 33.5% vs. 10.2%, p < 0.001). PAR was revealed to be independently related to an increased risk of MACE (quartile 4 vs. quartile 1: HR, 2.04 [95% CI, 1.34-3.08], p = 0.001). RCS indicated a positive PAR-MACE relationship. The AUC of PAR for the 3-year MACE was 0.659 (95% CI: 0.626-0.677, P<0.001). Subgroup analysis showed no significant interactions across subsets. CONCLUSION PAR independently predicted MACE risk in PCI-treated NSTE-ACS patients.

Deep Vein Thrombosis Is Facilitated by Endothelial-Derived Extracellular Vesicles via the PDI-GRP94-GPIIb/IIIa Pathway in Mice. J Clin Med 2023; 12:4265. [PMID: 37445300 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12134265] [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: 03/05/2023] [Revised: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a prevalent cardiovascular condition. Endothelial-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) may play a crucial role in platelet-dependent DVT development via platelet activation, but the mechanism is not clear yet. This research aims to understand how platelets and endothelial-derived EVs work in DVT. METHODS The interaction between protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and glucose-regulated protein 94 (GRP94) was founded by molecular docking. Inferior vena cava stasis-induced mice received PDI and GRP94 inhibitor treatments. Platelet activation, endothelial-derived EVs, and PDI were measured using flow cytometry. The expression of PDI and dimetric GRP94 in platelets co-cultured with hypoxic endothelial cells was confirmed by Western blot or native PAGE. The fluorescence resonance energy transfer assay shows conformational changes in GPIIb/IIIa on platelet surfaces. A tracking experiment was performed using PKH26, which labelled endothelial-derived EVs, and the endocytosis of EVs by platelets was tracked by confocal microscope. RESULTS In a DVT mouse model, platelets enhance venous thrombus formation in a coagulation-independent manner, instead, platelet activation and the length of the thrombus are related to PDI and GRP94 activity. Next, we found that the expression level of endothelial-derived EVs carrying PDI is significantly increased in plasma. Endothelial-derived EVs carrying PDI are endocytosed by platelets, in which the content of GRP94 dimer is elevated, and consequently increases the expression of surface GPIIb/IIIa. In addition, PDI allosterically interacts with GPIIb/IIIa, which is re-configurated into an activated form. CONCLUSION Endothelial-derived EVs carrying PDI induce DVT via interplay with GRP94 and GPIIb/IIIa in platelets. These findings emphasize the significance of platelets in DVT formation, and PDI may be a suitable target in DVT prevention.

Abstract
Patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) after replacement of the transcatheter aortic valve (TAVR) are more likely to develop thrombotic complications such as cerebral embolism and artificial valve thrombosis. However, the mechanism is not yet well defined. We aimed to explore the plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) levels and their role in the induction of procoagulant activity (PCA) in patients receiving TAVR alone or TAVR with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). EVs were analyzed with flow cytometer. Markers of platelet and endothelial cell activation were quantified using selective enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Procoagulant activity (PCA) was assessed by clotting time, purified clotting complex assays, and fibrin production assays. Our results confirmed that EVs with positive phosphatedylserin (PS+EV), platelet EVs (PEVs) and positive tissue factor EVs (TF+EVs) were higher in patients following TAVR than before TAVR, particularly in TAVR with PCI. Furthermore, endothelial-derived EVs (EEVs) were also higher in patients after TAVR with PCI than pre-TAVR, however, the EEVs levels in TAVR alone patients were gradually reduce than pre-TAVR. In addition, we further proved that total EVs contributed to dramatically shortened coagulation time, increased intrinsic/extrinsic factor Xa and thrombin generation in patients after TAVR, especially in TAVR with PCI. The PCA was markedly attenuated by approximately 80% with lactucin. Our study reveals a previously unrecognized link between plasma EV levels and hypercoagulability in patients after TAVR, especially TAVR with PCI. Blockade of PS+EVs may improve the hypercoagulable state and prognosis of patients.

Shear-Mediated Platelet Microparticles Demonstrate Phenotypic Heterogeneity as to Morphology, Receptor Distribution, and Hemostatic Function. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:7386.

Abstract
Implantable Cardiovascular Therapeutic Devices (CTD), while lifesaving, impart supraphysiologic shear stress to platelets, resulting in thrombotic and bleeding coagulopathy. We previously demonstrated that shear-mediated platelet dysfunction is associated with downregulation of platelet GPIb-IX-V and αIIbβ3 receptors via generation of Platelet-Derived MicroParticles (PDMPs). Here, we test the hypothesis that sheared PDMPs manifest phenotypical heterogeneity of morphology and receptor surface expression and modulate platelet hemostatic function. Human gel-filtered platelets were exposed to continuous shear stress. Alterations of platelet morphology were visualized using transmission electron microscopy. Surface expression of platelet receptors and PDMP generation were quantified by flow cytometry. Thrombin generation was quantified spectrophotometrically, and platelet aggregation was measured by optical aggregometry. Shear stress promotes notable alterations in platelet morphology and ejection of distinctive types of PDMPs. Shear-mediated microvesiculation is associated with the remodeling of platelet receptors, with PDMPs expressing significantly higher levels of adhesion receptors (αIIbβ3, GPIX, PECAM-1, P-selectin, and PSGL-1) and agonist receptors (P2Y12 and PAR1). Sheared PDMPs promote thrombin generation and inhibit platelet aggregation induced by collagen and ADP. Sheared PDMPs demonstrate phenotypic heterogeneity as to morphology and defined patterns of surface receptors and impose a bidirectional effect on platelet hemostatic function. PDMP heterogeneity suggests that a range of mechanisms are operative in the microvesiculation process, contributing to CTD coagulopathy and posing opportunities for therapeutic manipulation.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized vesicles with a lipid bilayer that are released from cells of the cardiovascular system, and are considered important mediators of intercellular and extracellular communications. Two types of EVs of particular interest are exosomes and microvesicles, which have been identified in all tissue and body fluids and carry a variety of molecules including RNAs, proteins, and lipids. EVs have potential for use in the diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases and as new therapeutic agents, particularly in the setting of myocardial infarction and heart failure. Despite their promise, technical challenges related to their small size make it challenging to accurately identify and characterize them, and to study EV-mediated processes. Here, we aim to provide the reader with an overview of the techniques and technologies available for the separation and characterization of EVs from different sources. Methods for determining the protein, RNA, and lipid content of EVs are discussed. The aim of this document is to provide guidance on critical methodological issues and highlight key points for consideration for the investigation of EVs in cardiovascular studies.

Abstract
Objective Implantable cardiovascular therapeutic devices (CTD) including stents, percutaneous heart valves and ventricular assist devices, while lifesaving, impart supraphysiologic shear stress to platelets resulting in thrombotic and bleeding device-related coagulopathy. We previously demonstrated that shear-mediated platelet dysfunction is associated with downregulation of platelet GPIb-IX-V and αIIbβ3 receptors via generation of platelet-derived microparticles (PDMPs). Here, we test the hypothesis that shear-generated PDMPs manifest phenotypical heterogeneity of their morphology and surface expression of platelet receptors, and modulate platelet hemostatic function. Approach and Results Human gel-filtered platelets were exposed to continuous shear stress and sonication. Alterations of platelet morphology were visualized using transmission electron microscopy. Surface expression of platelet receptors and PDMP generation were quantified by flow cytometry. Thrombin generation was quantified spectrophotometrically, and platelet aggregation in plasma was measured by optical aggregometry. We demonstrate that platelet exposure to shear stress promotes notable alterations in platelet morphology and ejection of several distinctive types of PDMPs. Shear-mediated microvesiculation is associated with the differential remodeling of platelet receptors with PDMPs expressing significantly higher levels of both adhesion (α IIb β 3 , GPIX, PECAM-1, P-selectin, and PSGL-1) and agonist-evoked receptors (P 2 Y 12 & PAR1). Shear-mediated PDMPs have a bidirectional effect on platelet hemostatic function, promoting thrombin generation and inhibiting platelet aggregation induced by collagen and ADP. Conclusions Shear-generated PDMPs demonstrate phenotypic heterogeneity as to morphologic features and defined patterns of surface receptor alteration, and impose a bidirectional effect on platelet hemostatic function. PDMP heterogeneity suggests that a range of mechanisms are operative in the microvesiculation process, contributing to CTD coagulopathy and posing opportunities for therapeutic manipulation.
