Abstract
Background: Carotid atherosclerosis is orchestrated by cell-cell communication that drives progression along a clinical continuum (asymptomatic to symptomatic). Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-derived nanoparticles representing a new paradigm in cellular communication. Little is known about their biological cargo, cellular origin/destination, and functional roles in human atherosclerotic plaque. Methods: EVs were enriched via size exclusion chromatography from human carotid endarterectomy samples dissected into paired plaque and marginal zones (symptomatic n=16, asymptomatic n=13). EV cargos were assessed via whole transcriptome miRNA sequencing and mass spectrometry-based proteomics. EV multi-omics were integrated with bulk and single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets to predict EV cellular origin and ligand-receptor interactions, and multi-modal biological network integration of EV-cargo was completed. EV functional impact was assessed with endothelial angiogenesis assays. Results: Carotid plaques contained more EVs than adjacent marginal zones, with differential enrichment for EV-miRNAs and EV-proteins in key atherogenic pathways. EV cellular origin analysis suggested that tissue EV signatures originated from endothelial cells (EC), smooth muscle cells (SMC), and immune cells. Integrated tissue vesiculomics and scRNA-seq indicated complex EV-vascular cell communication that changed with disease progression and plaque vulnerability (i.e., symptomatic disease). Plaques from symptomatic patients, but not asymptomatic patients, were characterized by increased involvement of endothelial pathways and more complex ligand-receptor interactions, relative to their marginal zones. Plaque-EVs were predicted to mediate communication with ECs. Pathway enrichment analysis delineated an endothelial signature with roles in angiogenesis and neovascularization - well-known indices of plaque instability. This was validated functionally, wherein human carotid symptomatic plaque EVs induced sprouting angiogenesis in comparison to their matched marginal zones. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that EVs may drive dynamic changes in plaques through EV- vascular cell communication and effector functions that typify vulnerability to rupture, precipitating symptomatic disease. The discovery of endothelial-directed angiogenic processes mediated by EVs creates new therapeutic avenues for atherosclerosis.

Abstract
All eukaryotic cells can secrete extracellular vesicles, which have a double-membrane structure and are important players in the intercellular communication involved in a variety of important biological processes. Platelets form platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) in response to activation, injury, or apoptosis. This review introduces the origin, pathway, and biological functions of PMPs and their importance in physiological and pathological processes. In addition, we review the potential applications of PMPs in cancer, vascular homeostasis, thrombosis, inflammation, neural regeneration, biomarkers, and drug carriers to achieve targeted drug delivery. In addition, we comprehensively report on the origin, biological functions, and applications of PMPs. The clinical transformation, high heterogeneity, future development direction, and limitations of the current research on PMPs are also discussed in depth. Evidence has revealed that PMPs play an important role in cell-cell communication, providing clues for the development of PMPs as carriers for relevant cell-targeted drugs. The development history and prospects of PMPs and their cargos are explored in this guidebook.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains the leading cause of global mortality. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small phospholipid vesicles that convey molecular bioactive cargoes and play essential roles in intercellular communication and, hence, a multifaceted role in health and disease. The present review offers a glimpse into the current state and up-to-date concepts on EV field. It also covers their association with several cardiovascular risk factors and ischemic conditions, being subclinical atherosclerosis of utmost relevance for prevention. Interestingly, we show that EVs hold promise as prognostic and diagnostic as well as predictive markers of ASCVD in the precision medicine era. We then report on the role of EVs in atherothrombosis, disentangling the mechanisms involved in the initiation, progression, and complication of atherosclerosis and showing their direct effect in the context of arterial thrombosis. Finally, their potential use for therapeutic intervention is highlighted.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality all over the world. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), small lipid-bilayer membrane vesicles released by most cellular types, exert pivotal and multifaceted roles in physiology and disease. Emerging evidence emphasizes the importance of EVs in intercellular communication processes with key effects on cell survival, endothelial homeostasis, inflammation, neoangiogenesis, and thrombosis. This review focuses on EVs as effective signaling molecules able to both derail vascular homeostasis and induce vascular dysfunction, inflammation, plaque progression, and thrombus formation as well as drive anti-inflammation, vascular repair, and atheroprotection. We provide a comprehensive and updated summary of the role of EVs in the development or regression of atherosclerotic lesions, highlighting the link between thrombosis and inflammation. Importantly, we also critically describe their potential clinical use as disease biomarkers or therapeutic agents in atherothrombosis.

Abstract
We have recently shown that in ischemic tissue, the hypoxic endothelial cells (EC) release extracellular microvesicles (EMVs) that are rich in tissue factor (TF). These TF-EMVs induce monocyte (Mo) homing to the ischemic zone, their differentiation into EC-like cells, and the formation of new blood vessels increasing tissue perfusion. In addition to membrane proteins, EMVs contain noncoding RNAs that can modulate cellular signaling pathways in the recipient cells. Here, we have investigated whether miRNA contained into secreted EMVs may be transferred into Mo where they could modulate EC-like cell differentiation and angiogenic responses. Our results indicated that EMVs released from activated ECs contain high levels of miR-126 and that the levels are directly proportional to TF expression in EMVs. Interestingly, miR-126 is transferred to Mo when they are incubated with TF-EMVs. Increased levels of miR-126 in Mo do not promote EC-like cell differentiation but regulate angiogenesis by targeting several components of the VEGF pathway, as SPRED1 and PI3KR2. Our findings reveal that activated ECs secrete EMVs carrying miR-126, which can modulate Mo reprogramming of angiogenic genes.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, the chronic accumulation of cholesterol-rich plaque within arteries, is associated with a broad spectrum of cardiovascular diseases including myocardial infarction, aortic aneurysm, peripheral vascular disease, and stroke. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of mortality in high-income countries and recent years have witnessed a notable increase in prevalence within low- and middle-income regions of the world. Considering this prominent and evolving global burden, there is a need to identify the cellular mechanisms that underlie the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis to discover novel therapeutic targets for preventing or mitigating its clinical sequelae. Despite decades of research, we still do not fully understand the complex cell-cell interactions that drive atherosclerosis, but new investigative approaches are rapidly shedding light on these essential mechanisms. The vascular endothelium resides at the interface of systemic circulation and the underlying vessel wall and plays an essential role in governing pathophysiological processes during atherogenesis. In this review, we present emerging evidence that implicates the activated endothelium as a driver of atherosclerosis by directing site-specificity of plaque formation and by promoting plaque development through intracellular processes, which regulate endothelial cell proliferation and turnover, metabolism, permeability, and plasticity. Moreover, we highlight novel mechanisms of intercellular communication by which endothelial cells modulate the activity of key vascular cell populations involved in atherogenesis, and discuss how endothelial cells contribute to resolution biology - a process that is dysregulated in advanced plaques. Finally, we describe important future directions for preclinical atherosclerosis research, including epigenetic and targeted therapies, to limit the progression of atherosclerosis in at-risk or affected patients.

Predicting disease progression in advanced non-small cell lung cancer with circulating neutrophil-derived and platelet-derived microparticles. BMC Cancer 2021; 21:939. [PMID: 34416874 PMCID: PMC8379720 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-021-08628-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Microparticles (MPs) are extracellular vesicles that are associated with cancer development and progression. Advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) still shows disease progression after multiple lines of treatment. Therefore, the objective of this study was to explore the correlation between circulating MPs and disease progression in advanced NSCLC, and to find a new method for concise and rapid determination of disease progression. METHODS Patients with advanced NSCLC admitted to hospital between October 2019 and October 2020 were included and divided into objective remission (OR) and progressive disease (PD) groups. The morphology of MPs was observed using transmission electron microscopy. The circulating total MPs, neutrophil MPs (NMPs), and platelet MPs (PMPs) before and after treatment were detected by flow cytometry, and a predictive model for disease progression in advanced NSCLC was developed. RESULTS Eighty-six patients were included; 60 in the OR group and 26 in the PD group. There was no significant difference in total MPs, NMPs, or PMPs at baseline between the two groups. After treatment, total MPs, NMPs, and PMPs were significantly higher in the PD than those in the OR group. Multivariate regression analysis showed that post-treatment NMPs≥160 events/μL(OR,3.748;95%CI,1.147-12.253,p = 0.029), PMPs≥80 events/μL(OR,10.968;95%CI,2.973-40.462,p < 0.0001) and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ≥3.3 (OR,4.929;95%CI,1.483-16.375,p = 0.009) were independently associated with progression of advanced NSCLC. Post-treatment NMPs and PMPs combined with NLR were used to build a predictive model for progression of advanced NSCLC. The area under the curve was 0.825 (95%CI,0.715-0.934, p < 0.0001), optimal cut-off value was 16, sensitivity was 80.8%, and specificity was 88.3%. CONCLUSION NMPs and PMPs are associated with progression of advanced NSCLC. The predictive model for progression of advanced NSCLC, established combining NMPs, PMPs, and NLR, can screen out 80.8% of patients with PD. This is helpful for real-time accurate, concise and rapid assessment of disease progression and timely adjustment of drug therapy.

Abstract
AIMS Despite increasing evidence that monocytes may acquire endothelial features, it remains unclear how monocytes participate in angiogenesis after ischemic damage. We investigated whether ischemic cells can release microvesicles (MVs) and promote neovascularisation in a model of peripheral artery disease (PAD). METHODS AND RESULTS To model PAD we used an in vivo experimental model of hind limb ischemia (HLI) in mice. MVs were isolated from the ischemic muscle and from peripheral blood at different times after unilateral femoral artery ligation. MVs were phenotypically characterized to identify cell origin. HLI in mice induced the release of MVs with a much higher content of tissue factor (TF) than non-HLI control mice both in the MVs isolated from the affected limb muscle area and from blood. MVs were mainly released from endothelial cells (ECs) and induced Mo differentiation to endothelial cell-like (ECL) cells. Differentiation to ECL cells encompassed highly strict hierarchycal transcription factor activation, initiated by ETS1 activation. MVs secreted by microvascular ECs overexpressing TF (upTF-EMVs), were injected in the ischemic hind limb in parallel with control EMVs (from random siRNA-treated cells) or EMVs released by silenced TF endothelial cells (siTF-EMVs). In animals treated with upTF-EMVs in the ischemic zone there was a highly significant increase in functional new vessels formation (seen by magnetic resonance angiography), a concomitant increase in the pool of circulating Ly6Clow Mo expressing vascular endothelial cell markers, and a significantly higher number of Mo/Macrophages surrounding and integrating the newly formed collaterals. CONCLUSION Ischemia-activated ECs release EMVs rich in TF that induce monocyte differentiation into ECL cells and the formation of new vessels in the ischemic zone. TF by this mechanism of formation of new blood microvessels can contribute to ischemic tissue repair. TRANSLATIONAL PERSPECTIVE Neovascularization is the cornerstone of limb preservation in peripheral artery disease. Neovessel formation occurring during postnatal development is usually connected with inflammation. Advanced studies in the field of vascular biology have reported that monocytes can acquire endothelial features under angiogenic stimulation. We report that after ischemia affected endothelial cells release microvesicles rich in tissue factor that act as endogenous triggers by interacting with monocytes in an autocrine fashion, coaxing the cells to differentiate into functional endothelial cells. These differentiated cells have the ability to increase blood flow into ischemic tissue. The present study depicts a new concept in the mechanisms governing vessel formation in ischemic tissue.

Abstract
Microvesicles (MV) contribute to cell-to-cell communication through their transported proteins and nucleic acids. MV, released into the extracellular space, exert paracrine regulation by modulating cellular responses after interaction with near and far target cells. MV are released at high concentrations by activated inflammatory cells. Different subtypes of human macrophages have been characterized based on surface epitopes being CD16+ macrophages associated with anti-inflammatory phenotypes. We have previously shown that low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5), a member of the LDLR family that participates in lipid homeostasis, is expressed in macrophage CD16+ with repair and survival functions. The goal of our study was to characterize the cargo and tentative function of macrophage-derived MV, whether LRP5 is delivered into MV and whether these MV are able to induce inflammatory cell differentiation to a specific CD16- or CD16+ phenotype. We show, for the first time, that lipid-loaded macrophages release MV containing LRP5. LDL loading induces increased expression of macrophage pro-inflammatory markers and increased release of MV containing pro-inflammatory markers. Conditioning of fresh macrophages with MV released by Lrp5-silenced macrophages induced the transcription of inflammatory genes and reduced the transcription of anti-inflammatory genes. Thus, MV containing LRP5 induce anti-inflammatory phenotypes in macrophages.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have become a key tool in the biotechnological landscape due to their well-documented ability to mediate intercellular communication. This feature has been explored and is under constant investigation by researchers, who have demonstrated the important role of EVs in several research fields ranging from oncology to immunology and diagnostics to regenerative medicine. Unfortunately, there are still some limitations to overcome before clinical application, including the inability to confine the EVs to strategically defined sites of interest to avoid side effects. In this study, for the first time, EV application is supported by 3D bioprinting technology to develop a new strategy for applying the angiogenic cargo of human umbilical vein endothelial cell-derived EVs in regenerative medicine. EVs, derived from human endothelial cells and grown under different stressed conditions, were collected and used as bioadditives for the formulation of advanced bioinks. Afterin vivosubcutaneous implantation, we demonstrated that the bioprinted 3D structures, loaded with EVs, supported the formation of a new functional vasculaturein situ, consisting of blood-perfused microvessels recapitulating the printed pattern. The results obtained in this study favour the development of new therapeutic approaches for critical clinical conditions, such as the need for prompt revascularization of ischaemic tissues, which represent the fundamental substrate for advanced regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited methods to predict the therapeutic effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). The purpose of this study was to explore the value of circulating microparticles (MPs) in predicting thetherapeutic effects of immunotherapy. METHODS A prospective study was conducted at the cancer center of PLA general hospital, including all patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were treated with pembrolizumab or nivolumab from December 2018 to December 2019. The patients were divided into an immune-related objective response (iOR) group and an immune-related disease progression (iPD) group.The numbers of total MPs, platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) and T-lymphocyte-derived microparticles (T-LyMPs) at baseline and after immunotherapy were detected using a flow cytometer. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to determine the independent influencing factors. RESULTS We identified 32 patients in the iOR group and 18 patients in the iPD group. No significant difference were found intotal MPs, PMPs and T-LyMPs at the baseline between the 2 groups. While total MPs, PMPs and T-LyMPs in the iPD group were significantly higher than those in the iOR group after immunotherapy(P < 0.05). In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, PMPs ≥80 events/µL after immunotherapy(OR, 7.270; 95% CI, 1.092-48.404, P = 0.04) were associated with disease progression in advanced NSCLC and could independently predict the therapeutic effect of immunotherapy. CONCLUSIONS PMPs after immunotherapy independently predicted the therapeutic effects of ICIs, making it possible to monitor the therapeutic effect in real time and rapidly adjust treatment regimens. In addition, this study found for the first time that elevated circulating T-LyMPs were associated with disease progression in advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is clinically recognized that collateral vessels can form after retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in some cases and these vessels can lead to spontaneous recovery of the pathological condition. In recent years, optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has become a decisive clinical instrument. Unlike previous angiography tests, OCTA enables the non-invasive visualization of fundus vasculature without the need for administration of a contrast agent. However, it remains to be determined if OCTA depicts the 'true' histological status as several studies have reported artifacts in OCTA imaging. METHODS We generated a laser-induced mouse RVO model, and evaluated the subsequent formation of collateral vessels in order to understand the mechanisms by which collateral vessels form using OCTA imaging, as well as molecular and histological assessments. RESULTS We succeeded in visualizing the time course of collateral vessel formation in a mouse RVO model and confirmed the similarity in formation of collateral vessels only within the deep layer of the retina in both human and mouse. We hypothesized that sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor-1 (S1PR1) may play important roles via vascular shear stress linking vein occlusion and collateral vessel formation. Results from OCTA revealed that collateral vessels are increased in response to administration of a S1PR1 agonist in a mouse RVO model. Based on quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), S1PR1 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels in the whole retina peaked 6 h after photocoagulation in this model. Immunohistochemical staining of retinal flat mounts revealed that S1PR1 staining occurred along the laser-occluded blood vessels. CONCLUSION We observed the temporal process of collateral vessel formation in a mouse RVO model and identified the relationship between S1PR1 and shear stress as one of the factors in collateral vessel formation in RVO.

Abstract
The administration of (stem) cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) promotes tissue repair through management of different inflammatory, proliferative and remodeling processes in the body. Despite the widely observed biological and therapeutic roles of EVs in wound healing and tissue repair, knowledge on how EVs activate recipient cells and which EV cargo is responsible for the subsequent functional effects is limited. Recent studies hint toward an important role for proteins as functional EV cargo. Here, we provide an overview of how EV-associated proteins promote tissue repair processes and discuss current challenges in evaluating their contribution to EV function and future directions for translating fundamental insights into clinically relevant EV therapies.

Abstract
Significance: Circulating microvesicles (cMV) are small (0.1-1 μm) phospholipid-rich blebs released by almost all cell types, and their release increases with cell activation and injury, thus reflecting the state of the cell from which they are originated. Microvesicles (MV) are found in the bloodstream, and they affect the phenotype of recipient cells, after local or systemic circulation, by intercellular transfer of their molecular content. Recent Advances: Several studies suggest the use of cell-specific MV subpopulations as predictive biomarkers for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) at different stages and degrees of severity. In this review, we describe the state of the art of cMV as noninvasive surrogate biomarkers of vascular injury and dysfunction correlated with poor clinical outcomes in CVD. Critical Issues: Despite the growing body of evidence supporting the importance of cMV as hallmarks of CVD and their utility as biomarkers of CVD, the specific roles of each phenotype of cMV in CVD burden and prognosis still remain to be elucidated and validated in large cohorts. In addition, the development of standardized and reproducible techniques is required to be used as biomarkers for disease progression in the clinical setting. Future Directions: A multipanel approach with specific cMV phenotypes, added to current biomarkers and scores, will undoubtedly provide unique prognostic information to stratify patients for appropriate therapy on the basis of their risk of atherothrombotic disease and will open a new research area as therapeutic targets for CVD. MV will add to the implementation of precision medicine by helping the cellular and molecular characterization of CVD patients.

Abstract
Epidemiologic studies have clearly demonstrated the correlation existing between Vitamin D (Vit. D) deficiency and increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease, suggesting that it might have a protective role in this clinical setting. Although many experimental studies have investigated the molecular mechanisms by which Vit. D might exert these effects, its potential role in protecting against athero-thrombosis is still partially unknown. We have investigated whether Vit. D might exert anti athero-thombotic effects by preventing expression of adhesion molecules (CAMs) and Tissue Factor (TF), molecules involved in atherothrombotic pathophysiology, in oxLDL stimulated endothelial cells (HUVEC). Moreover, we have investigated whether Vit. D effects might be due to the NF-kB modulation. HUVEC cultivated in medium enriched with Vit. D (10 nM) were stimulated with oxLDL (50 μg/ml). TF gene (RT-PCR), protein (Western blot), surface expression (FACS) and procoagulant activity (FXa generation assay) were measured. Similarly, CAMs gene (RT-PCR), surface expression (FACS) and soluble values (ELISA) were measured. NF-kB translocation was also investigated. Vit. D significantly reduced TF gene as well protein expression and procoagulant activity in oxLDL-treated HUVEC. Similar effects were observed for CAMs. These effects were associated with Vit. D modulation of NF-κB pathway. This study, although in vitro, indicate that Vit. D has protective effect on endothelial cells by inhibiting expression of TF and CAMs, proteins involved in atherothrombotic pathophysiology. Further studies will be necessary to translate these findings to a clinical scenario to better define the potential therapeutical role of Vit. D supplementation in the management of cardiovascular disease in patients with Vit. D deficiency.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles play a pivotal role in numerous physiological (immune response, cell-to-cell cooperation, angiogenesis) and pathological (reparation, inflammation, thrombosis/coagulation, atherosclerosis, endothelial dysfunction) processes. The development of heart failure is strongly associated with endothelial dysfunction, microvascular inflammation, alteration in tissue repair, and cardiac and vascular remodeling. It has been postulated that activated endothelial cell-derived vesicles are not just transfer forms of several active molecules (such as regulatory peptides, coagulation factors, growth factors, active molecules, hormones that are embedded onto angiogenesis, tissue reparation, proliferation, and even prevention from ischemia/hypoxia), but are instead involved in direct myocardial and vascular damage due to regulation of epigenetic responses of the tissue. These responses are controlled by several factors, such as micro-RNAs, that are transferred inside extracellular vesicles from mother cells to acceptor cells and are transductors of epigenetic signals. Finally, it is not a uniform opinion whether different phenotypes of heart failure are the result of altered cardiac and vascular reparation due to certain epigenetic responses, which are yielded by co-morbidities, such as diabetes mellitus and obesity. The aim of the review is to summarize knowledge regarding the role of various types of extracellular endothelial cell-derived vesicles in the regulation of cardiac and vascular remodeling in heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The composition and function of the adipose tissue covering the heart are poorly known. In this study, we have investigated the epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) covering the cardiac ventricular muscle and the EAT covering the left anterior descending artery (LAD) on the human heart, to identify their resident stem cell functional activity. METHODS EAT covering the cardiac ventricular muscle was isolated from the apex (avoiding areas irrigated by major vessels) of the heart (ventricular myocardium adipose tissue (VMAT)) and from the area covering the epicardial arterial sulcus of the LAD (PVAT) in human hearts excised during heart transplant surgery. Adipose stem cells (ASCs) from both adipose tissue depots were immediately isolated and phenotypically characterized by flow cytometry. The different behavior of these ASCs and their released secretome microvesicles (MVs) were investigated by molecular and cellular analysis. RESULTS ASCs from both VMAT (mASCs) and the PVAT (pASCs) were characterized by the expression of CD105, CD44, CD29, CD90, and CD73. The angiogenic-related genes VEGFA, COL18A1, and TF, as well as the miRNA126-3p and miRNA145-5p, were analyzed in both ASC types. Both ASCs were functionally able to form tube-like structures in three-dimensional basement membrane substrates. Interestingly, pASCs showed a higher level of expression of VEGFA and reduced level of COL18A1 than mASCs. Furthermore, MVs released by mASCs significantly induced human microvascular endothelial cell migration. CONCLUSION Our study indicates for the first time that the resident ASCs in human epicardial adipose tissue display a depot-specific angiogenic function. Additionally, we have demonstrated that resident stem cells are able to regulate microvascular endothelial cell function by the release of MVs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) released from activated or apoptotic endothelial cells may play a role in coagulation and thrombus formation. However, there is insufficient evidence regarding the impact of EMPs on angiogenesis in patients with cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) undergoing radiotherapy/radiochemotherapy (RT/RCT) and 10 healthy controls were studied. Serum EMPs were counted by flow cytometry, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS The mean EMP level was significantly higher in patients with HNC before RT/RCT (1,601±1,479 EMP/μl) compared to the control group (782±698 EMP/μl). The number of EMPs was not notably increased after RT/RCT (1,629±769 EMP/μl). There was no significant correlation between the plasma EMP number and concentration of VEGF before (r=0.131; p=0.625), 1 day after (r=-0.042, p=0.874), nor 3 months after RT/RCT (r=0.454, p=0.076). CONCLUSION Released EMPs may not influence promotion of neovascularization in patients with HNC.

Molecular Mechanisms Underpinning Microparticle-Mediated Cellular Injury in Cardiovascular Complications Associated with Diabetes. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2019; 2019:6475187.

Abstract
Microparticles (MPs) are small vesicles shed from the cytoplasmic membrane of healthy, activated, or apoptotic cells. MPs are very heterogeneous in size (100–1,000 nm), and they harbor proteins and surface antigens specific to cells they originate from. Virtually, all cells can shed MPs, and therefore, they can be found in all body fluids, but also entrapped in tissues. Of interest and because of their easy detection using a variety of techniques, circulating MPs were recognized as biomarkers for cell activation. MPs were also found to mediate critical actions in intercellular communication and transmitting biological messages by acting as paracrine vehicles. High plasma numbers of MPs were reported in many cardiovascular and metabolic disturbances that are closely associated with insulin resistance and low-grade inflammation and have been linked to adverse actions on cardiovascular function. This review highlights the involvement of MPs in cardiovascular complications associated with diabetes and discusses the molecular mechanisms that underpin the pathophysiological role of MPs in the onset and progression of cellular injury in diabetes.

Biliverdin administration regulates the microRNA-mRNA expressional network associated with neuroprotection in cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in rats. Int J Mol Med 2019; 43:1356-1372.

Abstract
Inflammatory response has an important role in the outcome of cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (CIR). Biliverdin (BV) administration can relieve CIR in rats, but the mechanism remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to explore the expressional network of microRNA (miRNA)-mRNA in CIR rats following BV administration. A rat middle cerebral artery occlusion model with BV treatment was established. After neurobehavior was evaluated by neurological severity scores (NSS), miRNA and mRNA expressional profiles were analyzed by microarray technology from the cerebral cortex subjected to ischemia and BV administration. Then, bioinformatics prediction was used to screen the correlation between miRNA and mRNA, and 20 candidate miRNAs and 33 candidate mRNAs were verified by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Furthermore, the regulation relationship between ETS proto-oncogene 1 (Ets1) and miRNA204-5p was examined by luciferase assay. A total of 86 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the BV group compared with the other groups. A total of 10 miRNAs and 26 candidate genes were identified as a core 'microRNA-mRNA' regulatory network that was linked with the functional improvement of BV administration in CIR rats. Lastly, the luciferase assay results confirmed that miRNA204-5p directly targeted Ets1. The present findings suggest that BV administration may regulate multiple miRNAs and mRNAs to improve neurobehavior in CIR rats, by influencing cell proliferation, apoptosis, maintaining ATP homeostasis, and angiogenesis.

Abstract
Initially suggested as simple cell debris, cell-derived microvesicles (MVs) have now gained acceptance as recognized players in cellular communication and physiology. Shed by most, and perhaps all, human cells, these tiny lipid-membrane vesicles carry bioactive agents, such as proteins, lipids and microRNA from their cell source, and are produced under orchestrated events in response to a myriad of stimuli. Physical exercise introduces systemic physiological challenges capable of acutely disrupting cell homeostasis and stimulating the release of MVs into the circulation. The novel and promising field of exercise-derived MVs is expanding quickly, and the following work provides a review of the influence of exercise on circulating MVs, considering both acute and chronic aspects of exercise and training. Potential effects of the MV response to exercise are highlighted and future directions suggested as exercise and sports sciences extend the realm of extracellular vesicles.

Abstract
The term extracellular vesicles (EVs) describes membrane vesicles released into the extracellular space by most cell types. EVs have been recognized to play an important role in cell-to-cell communication. They are known to contain various bioactive molecules, including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Although the nomenclature of EVs is not entirely standardized, they are considered to include exosomes, microparticles or microvesicles and apoptotic bodies. EVs are believed to play important roles in a wide range of biological processes. Although the pathogenic roles of EVs are largely documented, their protective roles are not as well established. Cardiovascular disease represents one of the most relevant and rapidly growing areas of the EV research. Circulating EVs released from platelets, erythrocytes, leukocytes, and endothelial cells may contain potentially valuable biological information for biomarker development in cardiovascular disease and could serve as a vehicle for therapeutic use. Herein, we provide an overview of the current knowledge in EV in cardiovascular disease, including a discussion on challenges in EV research, EV properties in various cell types, and their importance in atherosclerotic disease.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EV) are a heterogeneous collection of membrane-surrounded structures released from all studied cells, under both physiological and pathological conditions. These nano-size vesicles carry complex cargoes including different classes of proteins, lipids and nucleic acids and are known to act as a communication and signalling vesicles in various cellular process. In addition to their role in development and progression of pathological disorders which make them potentially great biomarkers, EV have beneficial effects, as they take part in homeostasis. In this review we have analysed the evidence for the role of microvesicles and exosomes secreted from other cells on microvascular endothelium (EV uptake) as well as the role of endothelial-derived vesicles on their neighbouring and distant cells (EV release).

Abstract
Microparticles (MPs), a class of cell products with biological activities, have been found to participate in a series of vascular activities. The aim of this article is to investigate the changes in the concentrations of MPs after ischemic stroke by meta-analysis. According to pre-established criteria, a strict screening of articles was performed through the Medline and Embase databases. Subsequently, the included studies were subjected to quality assessment and data extraction. Finally, a meta-analysis was performed on seven major outcomes from 985 noncerebrovascular disease controls and 988 ischemic stroke patients. The pooled concentrations of total MPs (TMPs), endotheliocyte-derived MPs (EMPs), platelet-derived MPs (PMPs), erythrocyte-derived MPs (RMPs), leukocyte-derived MPs (LMPs), and monocyte-derived MPs (MMPs) were significantly increased in the ischemic stroke patients compared to the noncerebrovascular disease controls, with the results as follows: TMPs [standardized mean difference (SMD), 1.12; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.26-1.97; p=0.01], EMPs (SMD, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.67-1.13; p<0.00001), PMPs (SMD, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.69-1.60; p<0.00001), RMPs (SMD, 1.14; 95% CI, 0.57-1.71; p<0.0001), LMPs (SMD, 1.42; 95% CI, 0.74-2.10; p<0.0001), and MMPs (SMD, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.59-1.60; p<0.0001). However, the pooled concentration of lymphocyte-derived MPs (LyMPs) demonstrated no significant difference between the patients and the controls (SMD, 0.22; 95% CI, -0.19 to 0.63; p=0.29). The available data indicated that the circulating MPs, except for LyMPs, play an important role in the development and prognosis of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AT) is a progressive chronic disease involving lipid accumulation, fibrosis, and inflammation in medium and large-sized arteries, and it is the main cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD). AT is caused by dyslipidemia and mediated by both innate and adaptive immune responses. Despite lipid-lowering drugs have shown to decrease the risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs), there is a significant burden of AT-related morbidity and mortality. Identification of subjects at increased risk for CVE as well as discovery of novel therapeutic targets for improved treatment strategies are still unmet clinical needs in CVD. Microvesicles (MVs), small extracellular plasma membrane particles shed by activated and apoptotic cells have been widely linked to the development of CVD. MVs from vascular and resident cells by facilitating exchange of biological information between neighboring cells serve as cellular effectors in the bloodstream and play a key role in all stages of disease progression. This article reviews the current knowledge on the role of MVs in AT and CVD. Attention is focused on novel aspects of MV-mediated regulatory mechanisms from endothelial dysfunction, vascular wall inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis to coagulation and thrombosis in the progression and development of atherothrombosis. MV contribution to vascular remodeling is also discussed, with a particular emphasis on the effect of MVs on the crosstalk between endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells, and their role regulating the active process of AT-driven angiogenesis and neovascularization. This review also highlights the latest findings and main challenges on the potential prognostic, diagnostic, and therapeutic value of cell-derived MVs in CVD. In summary, MVs have emerged as new regulators of biological functions in atherothrombosis and might be instrumental in cardiovascular precision medicine; however, significant efforts are still needed to translate into clinics the latest findings on MV regulation and function.

Abstract
Circulatory hypoxia-related diseases (CHRDs), including acute coronary syndromes, stroke and organ transplantation, attract increased attention due to high morbidity and mortality. Mounting evidence shows that hypoxia-induced oxidative stress, coagulation, inflammation and angiogenesis play extremely important roles in the physiological and pathological processes of CHRD-related vascular endothelial injury. Interestingly, hypoxia, even hypoxia-induced oxidative stress, coagulation and inflammation can all induce release of endothelial microparticles (EMPs). EMPs, shed from activated or apoptotic endothelial cells (ECs), reflect the degree of EC damage, and elevated EMP levels are found in several CHRDs. Furthermore, EMPs, which play an important role in cell-to-cell communication and function, have confirmed pro-coagulant, proinflammatory, angiogenic and other functions, affecting pathological processes. These findings suggest that EMPs and CHRDs have a very close relationship, and EMPs may help to identify CHRD phenotypes and stratify the severity of disease, to improve risk stratification for developing CHRDs, to better define prophylactic strategies and to ameliorate prognostic characterization of patients with CHRDs. This review summarizes the known and potential roles of EMPs in the diagnosis, staging, treatment and clinical prognosis of CHRDs.

Abstract
During the past decade, extracellular vesicles (EVs), which include apoptotic bodies, microvesicles, and exosomes, have emerged as important players in cell-to-cell communication in normal physiology and pathological conditions. EVs encapsulate and convey various bioactive molecules that are further transmitted to neighboring or more distant cells, where they induce various signaling cascades. The message delivered to the target cells is dependent on EV composition, which, in turn, is determined by the cell of origin and the surrounding microenvironment during EV biogenesis. Among their multifaceted role in the modulation of biological responses, the involvement of EVs in vascular development, growth, and maturation has been widely documented and their potential therapeutic application in regenerative medicine or angiogenesis-related diseases is drawing increasing interest. EVs derived from various cell types have the potential to deliver complex information to endothelial cells and to induce either pro- or antiangiogenic signaling. As dynamic systems, in response to changes in the microenvironment, EVs adapt their cargo composition to fine-tune the process of blood vessel formation. This article reviews the current knowledge on the role of microvesicles and exosomes from various cellular origins in angiogenesis, with a particular emphasis on the underlying mechanisms, and discusses the main challenges and prerequisites for their therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Essentials Monocytes (Mo) transdifferentiate into endothelial cell-like (ECL) cells. Mo induce tissue factor (TF) expression and secretion in microvascular endothelial cells (mECs). TF interacts with Mo in a paracrine fashion, inducing their transdifferentiation into ECL cells. TF generates a positive feedback crosstalk between Mo and mECs that promotes angiogenesis. SUMMARY Background Monocytes (Mo) increase neovascularization by releasing proangiogenic mediators and/or transdifferentiating into endothelial cell-like (ECL) cells. Recently, we have reported that Mo-microvascular endothelial cells (mECs) crosstalk induces mEC-tissue factor (TF) expression and promotes angiogenesis. However, the effect of TF on Mo remains unknown. Objective Here, we analyzed whether TF might exert angiogenic effects by inducing transdifferentiation of Mo. Methods Full-length TF (flTF) and alternatively spliced TF (asTF) were overexpressed in mECs, and their supernatants were added to Mo cultures. CD16 positivity and expression of vascular endothelial cell (VEC) markers in Mo were analyzed by fluorescence activated cell sorting. The capacity to form tube-like structures were visualized in three-dimensional cultures. Results In mECs flTF and asTF expression and release were increased in cultures with Mo-conditioned media. TF variants induced expansion of a CD16+ Mo subset and Mo transdifferentiation into ECL-cells expressing VEC markers that can form new microvessels. CD16+ Mo exposed to TF showed an increased expression of VE-cadherin, von Willebrand factor (VWF) and eNOS. Mo cultured with supernatants obtained from TF-silenced mECs did not transdifferentiate to ECL-cells or expressed VEC markers. Blocking β1-integrin in Mo significantly blocked the effects of the TF variants. Conclusions Mo induce mECs to express and release TF, which drives CD16- Mo to transform into CD16+ Mo and to transdifferentiate into ECL-cells that can form new microvessels. Our results reveal a TF-mediated positive feedback between mECs and Mo that stimulates Mo differentiation and induces angiogenesis.

Abstract
Endothelial cells (ECs) are major modulators of hemostasis by expressing and releasing pro- and anticoagulant mediators into the circulation. Previous studies showed that cultured ECs release procoagulant mediators into cell culture supernatants as evidenced by the reduction of viscoelastic clotting time. This effect was reversed with an anti-tissue factor antibody. Here, we aimed to investigate whether tissue factor (TF) was released by endothelial-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) and which portion of the released vesicles displays the most prominent procoagulant properties. After stimulation of ECs with tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) the supernatants of EC cultures were subjected to differential centrifugation steps to collect larger and smaller EVs which were then characterised by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and flow cytometry. Mixed with fresh human blood and analysed by thromboelastometry EVs exerted a significant procoagulant stimulus, which could be partly reversed by addition of an anti-TF antibody. Moreover, TF activity was confirmed in the centrifuged fractions. In summary, our results provide evidence of the procoagulant potential of smaller and larger endothelial-derived EV fractions detected by thromboelastometry. The observed effect is most likely due to the release of TF-bearing EVs of different dimensions, which are released upon TNF-α stimulation of endothelial cell cultures.

Abstract
To understand the coagulation changes after off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery, we evaluated the procoagulant activity of microparticles (MPs) and microparticles exposing tissue factor (MPs-TF), together with the levels of total tissue factor (TF), protein Z (PZ), protein Z-dependent protease inhibitor (ZPI), and factor X (FX) before (first day) and 1 week after surgery (seventh day) in plasma samples from 30 patients. Twenty healthy controls were also included. Compared to the controls, patients scheduled for surgery had significantly higher MPs-TF procoagulant activity and lower TF levels ( P = .0006, P = .02, respectively). In the whole cohort, median procoagulant activity of MPs-TF and median levels of TF and ZPI were significantly lower ( P = .02, P = .0003, and P = .004, respectively), while median levels of PZ and FX were significantly higher ( P = .02 and P = .002, respectively) on the seventh day compared to the first day. Our results suggest that OPCAB surgery has a significant effect on the procoagulant activity of MPs-TF and the PZ system.

Abstract
Anatomic pathology studies performed over 150 years ago revealed that excessive activation of coagulation occurs in the setting of inflammation. However, it has taken over a century since these seminal observations were made to delineate the molecular mechanisms by which these systems interact and the extent to which they participate in the pathogenesis of multiple diseases. There is, in fact, extensive cross talk between coagulation and inflammation, whereby activation of one system may amplify activation of the other, a situation that, if unopposed, may result in tissue damage or even multiorgan failure. Characterizing the common triggers and pathways are key for the strategic design of effective therapeutic interventions. In this review, we highlight some of the key molecular interactions, some of which are already showing promise as therapeutic targets for inflammatory and thrombotic disorders.

Abstract
A diverse population of small extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are released by various cells has been characterized predominantly in bulk, a procedure whereby the individual characteristics of EVs are lost. Here, we used a new nanotechnology-based flow cytometric analysis to characterize the antigenic composition of individual EVs in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Plasma EVs were captured with 15-nm magnetic nanoparticles coupled to antibodies against CD31 (predominantly an endothelial marker), CD41a (a marker for platelets), and CD63 or MHC class I (common EV markers). The total amounts of EVs were higher in the ACS patients than in the controls, predominantly due to the contribution of patients with acute myocardial infarction. For all captured fractions, the differences in the EV amounts were restricted to CD41a+ EVs. The increase in the numbers of EVs in the ACS patients, predominantly of platelet origin, probably reflects platelet activation and may indicate disease progression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Flavonoids are nutrients usually included in human diet with several significant biological activities. Nobiletin is a flavonoid that, besides having anti-inflammatory and anti-tumoral activity, seems to exert protective effects on cardiovascular system. Several studies investigated nobiletin as a natural drug to antagonize the atherosclerotic disease. On the contrary, literature about its potential role in modulating the main acute complication of atherosclerosis, thrombosis, is still scanty. Several studies have indicated that Tissue Factor (TF) plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular thrombotic events by triggering the formation of intracoronary thrombi. Oxidized-LDL have an important role in promoting athero-thrombotic events. This study investigates whether nobiletin might exert protective cardiovascular effects by preventing the oxidized-LDL mediated expression of TF in human endothelial cells in vitro. Moreover, we have studied whether the nobiletin effects might be modulated by the inhibition of the NF-κB pathway. METHODS AND RESULTS In HUVEC, ox-LDL induced TF-mRNA transcription as demonstrated by real time PCR and expression of functionally active TF as demonstrated by Western-blot, FACS analysis and pro-coagulant activity assay. Nobiletin prevented these ox-LDL-mediated effects by exerting antioxidant effects, finally leading to inhibition of the transcription factor NF-κB. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that nobiletin might be a potential antithrombotic agent of dietary origin. This flavonoid, through its antioxidant proprieties, might potentially exert an antithrombotic activity by inhibiting TF expression/activity in a cell population never investigated before in this context and that is normally represented in vessel wall such as endothelial cells.

Abstract
Background Cyanate has recently gained attention for its role in the pathogenesis of vascular injury. Nonetheless, the effect of cyanate on angiogenesis remains unclear. Methods and Results In this study, we demonstrated that oral administration of cyanate impaired blood perfusion recovery in a mouse hind‐limb ischemia model. A reduction in blood perfusion recovery at day 21 was observed in the ischemic tissue of cyanate‐treated mice. Likewise, there were fewer capillaries in the ischemic hind‐limb tissue of cyanate‐exposed mice. Our in vitro study showed that cyanate, together with its carbamylated products, inhibited the migration, proliferation, and tube‐formation abilities of endothelial cells. Further research revealed that cyanate regulated angiogenesis partly by interrupting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2/phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase/Akt pathway. The serum concentrations of homocitrulline, a marker of cyanate exposure, were determined in 117 patients with stable angina and chronic total occlusion. Consistent with the antiangiogenic role of cyanate, homocitrulline levels were increased in patients with poor coronary collateralization (n=58) compared with those with high collateralization (n=59; 21.09±13.08 versus 15.54±9.02 ng/mL, P=0.009). In addition, elevated homocitrulline concentration was a strong predictor of poor coronary collateral growth. Conclusions Impaired angiogenesis induced by cyanate might contribute to poor coronary collateral growth.

Abstract
Background Vascular endothelial dysfunction is the closely related determinant of ischemic heart disease (IHD). Endothelial dysfunction and ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) have been associated with an increase in microvesicles (MVs) in vivo. However, the potential contribution of endothelial microvesicles (EMVs) to myocardial damage is unclear. Here we aimed to investigate the role of EMVs derived from hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) -treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) on cultured H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Results H/R injury model was established to induce HUVECs to release H/R-EMVs. The H/R-EMVs from HUVECs were isolated from the conditioned culture medium and characterized. H9c2 cardiomyocytes were then incubated with 10, 30, 60 μg/mL H/R-EMVs for 6 h. We found that H9c2 cells treated by H/R-EMVs exhibited reduced cell viability, increased cell apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Moreover mechanism studies demonstrated that H/R-EMVs could induce the phosphorylation of p38 and JNK1/2 in H9c2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, H/R-EMVs contained significantly higher level of ROS than EMVs generated from untreated HUVECs, which might be a direct source to trigger a cascade of myocardial damage. Conclusion We showed that EMVs released during H/R injury are pro-apoptotic, pro-oxidative and directly pathogenic to cardiomyocytes in vitro. EMVs carry ROS and they may impair myocardium by promoting apoptosis and oxidative stress. These findings provide new insights into the pathogenesis of IRI.

Abstract
Autoimmune rheumatic diseases are characterised by systemic inflammation and complex immunopathology, with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, initiated by endothelial dysfunction in a chronic inflammatory environment. Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) are released into the circulation from activated endothelial cells and may therefore, reflect disease severity, vascular and endothelial dysfunction, that could influence disease pathogenesis via autocrine/paracrine signalling. The exact function of EMPs in rheumatic disease remains unknown, and this has initiated research to elucidate EMP composition and function, which may be determined by the mode of endothelial activation and the micro environment. To date, EMPs are thought to play a role in angiogenesis, thrombosis and inflammation by transferring specific proteins and microRNAs (miRs) to target cells. Here, we review the mechanisms underlying the generation and composition of EMPs and the clinical and experimental studies describing the involvement of EMPs in rheumatic diseases, since we have previously shown endothelial dysfunction and an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease are characteristics in systemic lupus erythematosus. We will also discuss the potential of EMPs as future biomarkers of cardiovascular risk in these diseases.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in developing countries. We examined the possible role of miR-506 in gastric cancer, investigated its associations with the clinical outcomes of gastric cancer patients, and explored its potential role in angiogenesis and the metastasis of gastric cancer cells. We found that miR-506 expression was a useful marker for stratifying patients from early to advanced clinical stages and for overall survival prediction. miR-506 overexpression inhibited the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of gastric cancer cells; however, depletion of miR-506 promoted it. In addition, miR-506 suppressed gastric cancer angiogenesis and was associated with decreased matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression. We also found that ETS1 was a miR-506 target, and it was expressed in 71.10% of gastric cancer tissue samples. Moreover, ETS1 expression was associated with matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression (P < 0.001). In conclusion, miR-506 was identified as an ETS1 targeting suppressor of metastatic invasion and angiogenesis in gastric cancer.

Abstract
Cancer-associated thrombosis remains a significant complication in the clinical management of cancer and interactions of the hemostatic system with cancer biology continue to be elucidated. Here, we review recent progress in our understanding of tissue factor (TF) regulation and procoagulant activation, TF signaling in cancer and immune cells, and the expanding roles of the coagulation system in stem cell niches and the tumor microenvironment. The extravascular functions of coagulant and anti-coagulant pathways have significant implications not only for tumor progression, but also for the selection of appropriate target specific anticoagulants in the therapy of cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accelerating atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients may relate to imbalance between pattern of microparticles (MPs), which are frequently involved in repair of vasculature, tissue injury, inflammation and thrombosis. The aim of the study was to investigate the pattern of circulating MPs in T2DM patients with asymptomatic atherosclerosis. METHODS A total of 103 patients with T2DM (54 subjects without documented coronary atherosclerosis and 49 patients with angiographic evidence of asymptomatic coronary atherosclerosis) who were underwent a contrast-enhanced multispiral computed tomography angiography and 35 healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study. To determine circulating biomarkers, blood samples were collected at baseline. MPs were labelled and characterized by flow cytometry. RESULTS There were no significant differences between healthy volunteers and T2DM patients in circulating numbers of MPs labelled as CD41a+, CD64+, CD144+, CD144+/CD31+, Annexin V+, CD144+/annexin V+ and CD144+/CD31+/annexin V+. However, lower number of MPs with immune phenotypes CD62E+, CD105E+ and higher numbers of CD31+/annexin V+ MPs were reported in T2DM patients when compared with healthy volunteers. Therefore, we found an increased level of circulating CD41a+ MPs, CD144+/CD31+ MPs, CD31+/annexin V+ MPs, and decreased level of CD62E+ MPs in T2DM patients with asymptomatic coronary atherosclerosis in comparison with those who had no asymptomatic atherosclerosis. Using multivariate log regression analysis, BMI (odds ratio [OR] = 1.04, p = 0.001), LDL-C (OR = 1.05, p = 0.046), hs-CRP (OR = 1.07, p = 0.044), osteoprotegerin (OR = 1.07, p = 0.026), CD62E+ MPs (OR = 1.07, p = 0.001) and CD31+/annexin V+ MPs (OR = 1.12, p = 0.003) were determined independent predictive factors of asymptomatic atherosclerosis in T2DM patients. CONCLUSION Circulating levels of MP originated from apoptotic endothelial cell-derived were significantly increased in diabetic patients as compared with normal subjects, but level of activated endothelial cell-derived MPs was lower than in healthy volunteers. Among T2DM patients, an increased level of CD31+/annexin V+ MPs and decreased CD62E+ MPs were significantly associated with asymptomatic atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Hemostasis encompasses a set of tightly regulated processes that govern blood clotting, platelet activation, and vascular repair. Upon vascular injury, the hemostatic system initiates a series of vascular events and activates extravascular receptors that act in concert to seal off the damage. Blood clotting is subsequently attenuated by a plethora of inhibitors that prevent excessive clot formation and eventual thrombosis. The endothelium which resides at the interface between the blood and surrounding tissues, serves an integral role in the hemostatic system. Depending on specific tissue needs and local stresses, endothelial cells are capable of evoking either antithrombotic or prothrombotic events. Healthy endothelial cells express antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents that prevent platelet aggregation and fibrin formation, respectively. In the face of endothelial dysfunction, endothelial cells trigger fibrin formation, as well as platelet adhesion and aggregation. Finally, endothelial cells release pro-fibrinolytic agents that initiate fibrinolysis to degrade the clot. Taken together, a functional endothelium is essential to maintain hemostasis and prevent thrombosis. Thus, a greater understanding into the role of the endothelium can provide new avenues for exploration and novel therapies for the management of thromboembolisms.

Abstract
Physiological stress takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of cells where activation and up-regulation of genes and proteins are primarily induced to enhance pro-survival mechanisms such as the unfolded protein response (UPR). A dominant protein in the UPR response is the heat shock GRP78 protein. Although GRP78 is primarily located in the ER, under certain conditions it is transported to the cell surface, where it acts as a receptor inducing pathways of cell signaling such as proliferation or apoptosis. In the prolonged chronic stress transportation of the GRP78 from the ER to the cell membrane is a major event where in addition to the presentation of the GRP78 as a receptor to various ligands, it also marks the cells that will proceed to apoptotic pathways. In the normal cell that under stress acquires cell surface GRP78 and in the tumor cell that already presents cell surface GRP78, cell surface GRP78 is an apoptotic flag. The internalization of GRP78 from the cell surface in normal cells by ligands such as peptides will enhance cell survival and alleviate cardiovascular ischemic diseases. The absence of cell surface GRP78 in the tumor cells portends proliferative and metastatic tumors. Pharmacological induction of cell surface GRP78 will induce the process of apoptosis and might be used as a therapeutic modality for cancer treatment.
