Cai Z, Feng J, Dong N, Zhou P, Huang Y, Zhang H. Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles play an important role in platelet transfusion therapy. Platelets 2023; 34:2242708. [PMID: 37578045 DOI: 10.1080/09537104.2023.2242708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) contain the characteristics of their cell of origin and mediate cell-to-cell communication. Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) not only have procoagulant activity but also contain platelet-derived inflammatory factors (CD40L and mtDNA) that mediate inflammatory responses. Studies have shown that platelets are activated during storage to produce large amounts of PEVs, which may have implications for platelet transfusion therapy. Compared to platelets, PEVs have a longer storage time and greater procoagulant activity, making them an ideal alternative to platelets. This review describes the reasons and mechanisms by which PEVs may have a role in blood transfusion therapy.

The Role of the Oxidative State and Innate Immunity Mediated by TLR7 and TLR9 in Lupus Nephritis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15234. [PMID: 37894915 PMCID: PMC10607473 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242015234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Lupus nephritis (LN) is a severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is considered one of the leading causes of mortality. Multiple immunological pathways are involved in the pathogenesis of SLE, which makes it imperative to deepen our knowledge about this disease's immune-pathological complexity and explore new therapeutic targets. Since an altered redox state contributes to immune system dysregulation, this document briefly addresses the roles of oxidative stress (OS), oxidative DNA damage, antioxidant enzymes, mitochondrial function, and mitophagy in SLE and LN. Although adaptive immunity's participation in the development of autoimmunity is undeniable, increasing data emphasize the importance of innate immunity elements, particularly the Toll-like receptors (TLRs) that recognize nucleic acid ligands, in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Here, we discuss the intriguing roles of TLR7 and TLR9 in developing SLE and LN. Also included are the essential characteristics of conventional treatments and some other novel and little-explored alternatives that offer options to improve renal function in LN.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multifactorial autoimmune disease with complex pathogenesis, the treatment of which relies exclusively on the use of immunosuppressants. Increased oxidative stress is involved in causing inflammatory and cellular defects in the pathogenesis of SLE. Various inflammatory and cellular markers including oxidative modifications of proteins, lipids, and DNA contribute to immune system dysregulation and trigger an aggressive autoimmune attack through molecular mechanisms like enhanced NETosis, mTOR pathway activation, and imbalanced T-cell differentiation. Accordingly, the detection of inflammatory and cellular markers is important for providing an accurate assessment of the extent of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress also reduces DNA methylation, thus allowing the increased expression of affected genes. As a result, pharmacological approaches targeting oxidative stress yield promising results in treating patients with SLE. The purpose of this review is to examine the involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis and management of SLE.

Abstract
Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute, inflammation mediated vasculitis, mainly affecting in children under five, which is consider as the most common coronary artery disease in children. The injuries of coronary arteries would result in dilation or thrombus formation, bringing great threaten to patients. Endothelium, located in the inner surface of coronary artery, serves as the interface between the circulating inflammatory cells and vascular media or adventitia, which is the first target of inflammatory attacks during early stage of KD. A series of studies have determined vascular endothelial cells damages and dysfunction in KD patients. However, current therapeutic strategy is still challenging. So that it is critical to underline the mechanisms of endothelium injuries. In this review, the role of endothelial cells in the pathogenesis of KD and the therapeutic methods for endothelial cells were systematically described.
