Abstract
Vascular diseases constitute a significant contributor to worldwide mortality rates, placing a substantial strain on healthcare systems and socio-economic aspects. They are closely associated with inflammatory responses, as sustained inflammation could impact endothelial function, the release of inflammatory mediators, and platelet activation, thus accelerating the progression of vascular diseases. Consequently, directing therapeutic efforts towards mitigating inflammation represents a crucial approach in the management of vascular diseases. Traditional anti-inflammatory medications may have extensive effects on multiple tissues and organs when absorbed through the bloodstream. Conversely, treatments targeting inflammatory vascular diseases, such as monoclonal antibodies, drug-eluting stents, and nano-drugs, can achieve more precise effects, including precise intervention, minimal non-specific effects, and prolonged efficacy. In addition, personalized therapy is an important development trend in targeted therapy for inflammatory vascular diseases. Leveraging advanced simulation algorithms and clinical trial data, treatment strategies are gradually being personalized based on patients' genetic, biomarker, and clinical profiles. It is expected that the application of precision medicine in the field of vascular diseases will have a broader future. In conclusion, targeting therapies offer enhanced safety and efficacy compared to conventional medications; investigating novel targeting therapies and promoting clinical transformation may be a promising direction in improving the prognosis of patients with inflammatory vascular diseases. This article reviews the pathogenesis of inflammatory vascular diseases and presents a comprehensive overview of the potential for targeted therapies in managing this condition.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which fats, lipids, cholesterol, calcium, proliferating smooth muscle cells, and immune cells accumulate in the intima of the large arteries, forming atherosclerotic plaques. A complex interplay of various vascular and immune cells takes place during the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Multiple reports indicate that tight control of reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and reactive sulfur species (RSS) production is critical for maintaining vascular health. Unrestricted ROS and RNS generation may lead to activation of various inflammatory signaling pathways, facilitating atherosclerosis. Given these deleterious consequences, it is important to understand how ROS and RNS affect the signaling processes involved in atherogenesis. Conversely, RSS appears to exhibit an atheroprotective potential and can alleviate the deleterious effects of ROS and RNS. Herein, we review the literature describing the effects of ROS, RNS, and RSS on vascular smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and macrophages and focus on how changes in their production affect the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. This review also discusses the contribution of ROS, RNS, and RSS in mediating various post-translational modifications, such as oxidation, nitrosylation, and sulfation, of the molecules involved in inflammatory signaling.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic hepatic disorder on a global scale. Atherosclerosis (AS), a leading cause of cardiovascular diseases, stands as the primary contributor to mortality among patients diagnosed with NAFLD. However, the precise etiology by which NAFLD causes AS remains unclear. Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles secreted by cells, and are considered to participate in complex biological processes by promoting cell-to-cell and organ-to-organ communications. As vesicles containing protein, mRNA, non-coding RNA and other bioactive molecules, exosomes can participate in the development of NAFLD and AS respectively. Recently, studies have shown that NAFLD can also promote the development of AS via secreting exosomes. Herein, we summarized the recent advantages of exosomes in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and AS, and highlighted the role of exosomes in mediating the information exchange between NAFLD and AS. Further, we discussed how exosomes play a prominent role in enabling information exchange among diverse organs, delving into a novel avenue for investigating the link between diseases and their associated complications. The future directions and emerging challenges are also listed regarding the exosome-based therapeutic strategies for AS under NAFLD conditions.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is the leading cause of cardiovascular disease, causing a major burden on patients as well as families and society. Exosomes generally refer to various lipid bilayer microvesicles originating from different cells that deliver various bioactive molecules to the recipient cells, exerting biological effects in cellular communication and thereby changing the internal environment of the body. The mechanisms of correlation between exosomes and the disease process of atherosclerosis have been recently clarified. Exosomes are rich in nucleic acid molecules and proteins. For example, the exosome miRNAs reportedly play important roles in the progression of atherosclerotic diseases. In this review, we focus on the composition of exosomes, the mechanism of their biogenesis and release, and the commonly used methods for exosome extraction. By summarizing the latest research progress on exosomes and atherosclerosis, we can explore the advances in the roles of exosomes in atherosclerosis to provide new ideas and targets for atherosclerosis prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.

Abstract
Currently, atherosclerosis, characterized by the dysfunction of lipid metabolism and chronic inflammation in the intimal space of the vessel, is considered to be a metabolic disease. As the most abundant innate immune cells in the body, macrophages play a key role in the onset, progression, or regression of atherosclerosis. For example, macrophages exhibit several polarization states in response to microenvironmental stimuli; an increasing proportion of macrophages, polarized toward M2, can suppress inflammation, scavenge cell debris and apoptotic cells, and contribute to tissue repair and fibrosis. Additionally, specific exosomes, generated by macrophages containing certain miRNAs and effective efferocytosis of macrophages, are crucial for atherosclerosis. Therefore, macrophages have emerged as a novel potential target for anti-atherosclerosis therapy. This article reviews the role of macrophages in atherosclerosis from different aspects: origin, phenotype, exosomes, and efferocytosis, and discusses new approaches for the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Head-to-Head Comparison of Tissue Factor-Dependent Procoagulant Potential of Small and Large Extracellular Vesicles in Healthy Subjects and in Patients with SARS-CoV-2 Infection. BIOLOGY 2023; 12:1233. [PMID: 37759632 PMCID: PMC10525820 DOI: 10.3390/biology12091233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
The relative contribution of small (sEVs) and large extracellular vesicles (lEVs) to the total plasma procoagulant potential is not yet well defined. Thus, we compared total and TFpos-sEVs and -lEVs isolated from healthy subjects and COVID-19 patients during the acute phase of the infection and after symptom remission in terms of (1) vesicle enumeration using nanoparticle tracking assay, imaging flow cytometry, and TF immunofluorescence localization in a single-vesicle analysis using microarrays; (2) cellular origin; and (3) TF-dependent Xa generation capacity, as well as assessing the contribution of the TF inhibitor, TFPI. In healthy subjects, the plasma concentration of CD9/CD63/CD81pos sEVs was 30 times greater than that of calceinpos lEVs, and both were mainly released by platelets. Compared to lEVs, the levels of TFpos-sEVs were 2-fold higher. The TF-dependent Xa generation capacity of lEVs was three times greater than that of sEVs, with the latter being hindered by TFPI. Compared to HSs, the amounts of total and TFpos-sEVs and -lEVs were significantly greater in acute COVID-19 patients, which reverted to the physiological values at the 6-month follow-up. Interestingly, the FXa generation of lEVs only significantly increased during acute infection, with that of sEV being similar to that of HSs. Thus, in both healthy subjects and COVID-19 patients, the TF-dependent procoagulant potential is mostly sustained by large vesicles.

Abstract
There is growing evidence that mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles and exosomes can significantly improve the curative effect of oxidative stress-related diseases. Mesenchymal stem cell extracellular vesicles and exosomes (MSC-EVs and MSC-Exos) are rich in bioactive molecules and have many biological regulatory functions. In this review, we describe how MSC-EVs and MSC-Exos reduce the related markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in various systemic diseases, and the molecular mechanism of MSC-EVs and MSC-Exos in treating apoptosis and vascular injury induced by oxidative stress. The results of a large number of experimental studies have shown that both local and systemic administration can effectively inhibit the oxidative stress response in diseases and promote the survival and regeneration of damaged parenchymal cells. The mRNA and miRNAs in MSC-EVs and MSC-Exos are the most important bioactive molecules in disease treatment, which can inhibit the apoptosis, necrosis and oxidative stress of lung, heart, kidney, liver, bone, skin and other cells, and promote their survive and regenerate.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Exosomes are lipid-bound particles that carry lipids, protein, and nucleic acid and affect cellular function. This review highlights the current knowledge on the crosstalk between exosomes and lipid metabolism and their impact on cardiometabolic disease. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies revealed that lipids and lipid metabolizing enzymes are important for exosome biogenesis and internalization and conversely how exosomes affect lipid metabolism, secretion, and degradation. The interplay between exosomes and lipid metabolism affects disease pathophysiology. More importantly, exosomes and lipids might function as biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis or possibly therapies. SUMMARY Recent advances in our understanding of exosomes and lipid metabolism have implications for our understanding of normal cellular and physiological functions as well as disease pathogenesis. Exosome and lipid metabolism have implications in novel diagnostic tests and treatments of cardiometabolic disease.

Abstract
Exosome plays a crucial role in regulating intercellular communication during atherosclerosis development. However, sensitive and portable exosome detection remains a huge challenge. Herein, a personal glucose meter (PGM)-based exosomes detection approach has been proposed that allows detection of exosomes with a high sensitivity and reproducibility. In this method, a catch probe, which is composed of CD63 aptamer and blocker sequence, is utilized for the specific identification of exosomes. The blocker sequence binds with H probe to initiate the Exo-III-assisted signal recycles to generate numerous DNAzyme sequences. Under the assistance of the substrate, DNAzyme forms its active secondary structure to generate gap site in substrate, releasing a linker to conjugate sucrase to streptavidin magnetic beads (SMBs). After removing unbound sucrase, the SMB-linker-sucrase complex is used to catalyze sucrose to glucose, which can be read by PGMs. Based on this, the method exhibits a wide detection range and a low limit of detection, holding a promising prospect for the analysis of exosomes and screening atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Purpose The formation of macrophage-derived foam cells via the uptake of modified lipoproteins is a pivotal development event in atherosclerosis. It has been reported that clinical and experimental myocardial infarction could accelerate atherosclerosis. Several studies have suggested the critical role of exosomes in cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of exosomes from patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients in atherogenesis remains unclear. Patients and Methods Serum exosomes from AMI patients (AMI-Exo) and control individuals (Con-Exo) were isolated and characterized. These exosomes were studied in vitro and in vivo to determine their impact on macrophage foaming and atherogenesis. Results Our results showed that AMI-Exo promoted foam cell formation in oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-treated macrophages and progression of atherosclerosis in high-fat/cholesterol diet-fed ApoE-/- mice together with a significantly upregulated levels of lectin-like ox-LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1). The miR-186-5p was found to be downregulated in AMI-Exo and macrophages administered with AMI-Exo. Moreover, serum exosomal miR-186-5p achieved high diagnostic performance for AMI. Luciferase reporter assay indicated that miR-186-5p directly inhibited LOX-1. The endogenous or exogenous miR-186-5p deficiency enhanced lipid accumulation by upregulating LOX-1, whereas miR-186-5p mimics had a reverse effect. Conclusion In conclusion, the current findings suggest that dysregulated miR-186-5p in AMI-Exo may explain the contribution of acute ischemia events to the advancement of atherosclerosis by enhancing macrophage foaming via its target, LOX-1.

Abstract
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) stimulation impairs the oxidation-reduction equilibrium in vascular endothelial cells (VECs) and contributes to atherosclerosis (AS). This study probed the mechanisms of extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated transfer of lncRNA CLDN10 antisense RNA 1 (CLDN10-AS1) in ox-LDL-induced VEC injury. Initially, VEC injury models were established by treating human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with ox-LDL. EVs were isolated from HUVECs (HUVECs-EVs) and identified. CLDN10-AS1, microRNA (miR)-186, and Yin Yang 1 (YY1) expressions in ox-LDL-treated HUVECs and EVs derived from these cells (ox-EVs) were measured. HUVECs were incubated with EVs, after which the cell viability, apoptosis, and concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress markers were measured. We discovered that CLDN10-AS1 and YY1 were upregulated in ox-LDL-treated HUVECs, whereas miR-186 was downregulated. ox-EVs treatment elevated CLDN10-AS1 expression in HUVECs and ox-EVs overexpressing CLDN10-AS1 promoted VEC injury. Besides, CLDN10-AS1 is competitively bound to miR-186 and promoted YY1 expression. Rescue experiments revealed that miR-186 overexpression or YY1 suppression partially reversed the roles of ox-EVs overexpressing CLDN10-AS1 in ox-LDL-induced VEC injury. Lastly, clinical serum samples were collected for verification. Overall, CLDN10-AS1 carried by HUVECs-EVs into HUVECs competitively bound to miR-186 to elevate YY1 expression, thereby aggravating ox-LDL-induced VEC injury.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a complex pathological process involving macrophages, endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells that can lead to ischemic heart disease; however, the mechanisms underlying cell‐to‐cell communication in atherosclerosis are poorly understood. In this study, we focused on the role of exosomal miRNAs in crosstalk between macrophages and endothelial cells and explored the rarely studied molecular mechanisms involved. Our in vitro result showed that macrophage‐derived exosomal miR‐4532 significantly disrupted human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) function by targeting SP1 and downstream NF‐κB P65 activation. In turn, increased endothelin‐1 (ET‐1), intercellular cell adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule‐1 (VCAM‐1) and decreased endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression in HUVECs increased attraction of macrophages, exacerbating foam cell formation and transfer of exosomal miR‐4532 to HUVECs. MiR‐4532 overexpression significantly promoted endothelial injury and pretreatment with an inhibitor of miR‐4532 or GW4869 (exosome inhibitor) could reverse this injury. In conclusion, our data reveal that exosomes have a critical role in crosstalk between HUVECs and macrophages. Further, exosomal miR‐4532 transferred from macrophages to HUVECs and targeting specificity protein 1 (SP1) may be a novel therapeutic target in patients with atherosclerosis.
