Abstract
Cerebral vasospasm is a frequently encountered clinical problem, especially in patients with traumatic brain injury and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Continued cerebral vasospasm can cause cerebral ischemia, even infarction and delayed ischemic neurologic deficits. It significantly affects the course of the disease and the outcome of the patient. However, the underlying mechanism of cerebral vasospasm is still unclear. Recently, increasing studies focus on the pathogenic mechanism of microparticles. It has been found that microparticles have a non-negligible role in promoting vasospasm. This research aims to summarize the dynamics of microparticles in vivo and identify a causal role of microparticles in the occurrence and development of cerebral vasospasm. We found that these various microparticles showed dynamic characteristics in body fluids and directly or indirectly affect the cerebral vasospasm or prompt it. Due to the different materials carried by microparticles from different cells, there are also differences in the mechanisms that lead to abnormal vasomotor. We suggest that microparticle scavengers might be a promising therapeutic target against microparticles associated complications.

Abstract
Background: Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) carrying the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) might play a key role in promoting platelet activation in diabetes. This study aimed to examine the activation of platelets, the amounts of MPs, PMPs, and EMPs, and the concentration and activity of PDI in patients with diabetic coronary heart disease (CHD) and non-diabetic CHD. Methods: Patients with CHD (n=223) were divided as non-diabetic CHD (n=121) and diabetic CHD (n=102). Platelet activation biomarkers, circulating microparticles (MPs), the concentration of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), and MP-PDI activity were determined. The effect of EMPs on platelet activation was investigated in vitro. Allosteric GIIb/IIIa receptors that bind to PDI were detected by a proximity ligation assay (PLA). Results: Platelet activation, platelet-leukocyte aggregates, circulating MPs, EMPs, PDI, and MP-PDI activity in the diabetic CHD group were significantly higher than in the non-diabetic CHD group (P<0.05). Diabetes (P=0.006) and heart rate <60 bpm (P=0.047) were associated with elevated EMPs. EMPs from diabetes increased CD62p on the surface of the platelets compared with the controls (P<0.01), which could be inhibited by the PDI inhibitor RL90 (P<0.05). PLA detected the allosteric GIIb/IIIa receptors caused by EMP-PDI, which was also inhibited by RL90. Conclusions: In diabetic patients with CHD, platelet activation was significantly high. Diabetes and heart rate <60 bpm were associated with elevated EMPs and simultaneously increased PDI activity on EMP, activating platelets through the allosteric GPIIb/IIIa receptors.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine upregulated in many inflammatory diseases, and a potent inducer of endothelial cell-derived microparticle (EMP) formation. In this study, we identified the protein kinase PAK4 as a key regulator of the TNF-induced EMP release from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). TNF induces dose- and time-dependent EMP release and downregulation of PAK4 and upstream cdc42 in HUVECs. PAK4 suppression or inhibition of its kinase activity increases TNF-induced EMP release and apoptosis in HUVECs, while PAK4 overexpression reduces EMP release and apoptosis in TNF-stimulated cells. Collectively, these data indicate that PAK4 suppresses TNF-induced EMP generation occurring during apoptosis, and suggest that modulation of PAK4 activity may represent a novel approach to suppress the TNF-induced EMP levels in pro-inflammatory disorders and other pathological conditions.

Abstract
GP IIb/IIIa receptor activation plays an important role in thrombosis. The mechanism of early activation of GP IIb/IIIa receptors in diabetic conditions remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the release of Endothelial microparticle (EMP)-associated protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) after endothelial cell injury induced in diabetes and the changes in platelet activation. We produced an animal model of type 2 diabetes mellitus using ApoE-/- mice. Normal ApoE-/- and diabetic mice were allocated to four groups (n = 15): normal diet, normal diet plus rutin, diabetic, and diabetes plus rutin. The EMP-PDI content and GP IIb/IIIa expression of mice platelets were determined. In addition, EMPs obtained from the four groups were pretreated with the PDI inhibitor rutin; then, their effects on the platelets of normal C57 mice were characterized. Compared with the normal diet group, the diabetic group had significantly increased plasma EMP-PDI content and accelerated platelet activation by increased GP IIb/IIIa expression. In conclusion, EMP-PDI promotes early platelet activation through glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptors present on platelet surface in the diabetic state. However, this process could be partially suppressed by the administration of rutin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the expression and significance of endothelial microparticles (EMPs) in children with Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP). METHODS A total of 100 previously untreated children with HSP were classified to Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) group (n=40) and non-nephritis group (n=60). Thirty healthy children who underwent physical examination were enrolled as control group. Serum levels of EMPs, T helper 17 cells (Th17), and interleukin-17 (IL-17) were compared between groups. RESULTS The HSPN and non-nephritis groups had significantly higher levels of Th17 and IL-17 than the control group, and the HSPN group had the highest levels (P<0.05). The HSPN and non-nephritis groups had a significantly higher level of EMPs than the control group, and the HSPN group had the highest level (P<0.05). In the HSPN group, the levels of Th17 and IL-17 were positively correlated with the level of EMPs (r=0.830 and 0.644 respectively; P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS EMPs play an important role in the pathogenesis of HSP. The increase in EMPs might be one of the reasons for renal involvement in children with HSP.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? What is the effect of chronic stroke on circulating microparticle populations, accounting for potential effects of age and type 2 diabetes? What is the main finding and its importance? Elevated concentrations of CD31+ /CD42b- and CD62E+ microparticles appear to be driven by type 2 diabetes but not chronic stroke and are associated with fasting glucose and triglyceride levels. Older age results in elevations in CD62E+ and CD34+ microparticle concentrations. These microparticles have been proposed as potential targets for diagnosing, treating and identifying the clinical progression and complications of type 2 diabetes. ABSTRACT The elevated circulating concentration of endothelial microparticles (MPs) may provide an index of the extent and nature of cellular damage in chronic stroke. The purpose of this study was to determine the circulating concentrations of CD31+ /CD42b- , CD62E+ and CD34+ MPs in chronic stroke subjects, focusing on the effects of chronic stroke by comparison with both older adults without a history of stroke but with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and older and young healthy controls. Plasma from three groups of sedentary older (50-75 years) men and women (chronic stroke, T2DM or older healthy) as well as a group of younger (18-39 years) healthy controls was isolated from fasting blood, and CD31+ /CD42b- , CD62E+ and CD34+ MPs were quantified using flow cytometry (n = 17/group). Concentrations of CD31+ /CD42b- and CD62E+ MPs were higher in the T2DM group (P < 0.05), but not chronic stroke, compared to older and younger healthy adults. CD62E+ MP and CD34+ MP concentrations were elevated in the older compared to younger adults (P < 0.05 for both). Sub-analyses excluding chronic stroke subjects who were also diagnosed with diabetes [stroke (diabetes- )] revealed lower CD31+ /CD42b- (P < 0.05) and CD62E+ (P = 0.08) MPs in the stroke (diabetes- ) group compared to the T2DM group. CD31+ /CD42b- MP and CD62E+ MP concentrations were each associated with fasting glucose levels and CD31+ /CD42b- MPs also were associated with triglyceride levels. As MPs have been proposed as potential targets for diagnosing, treating and identifying the clinical progression of T2DM, our study provides further support for the use of CD31+ /CD42b- and CD62E+ MPs in the clinical progression of T2DM and associated vascular complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) are considered as markers of endothelial dysfunction. In this study, we aimed to examine whether there is endothelial dysfunction in children with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), hypothesizing that endothelial dysfunction would be present especially with acute-phase response in the active period of the disease. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 65 FMF patients (41 attack free, 24 attack period) and 35 healthy controls. Circulating EMPs, serum amyloid A (SAA), and other inflammation markers were measured in all groups. Circulating EMPs were measured using flow cytometry. Study groups were compared for circulating EMP and inflammatory markers. The relationship between EMPs and the activation of the disease was evaluated. RESULTS The levels of CD144+ and CD146+ EMPs in the FMF attack period group were significantly higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). The levels of inflammation markers in the attack period group were significantly higher than those of the control and attack-free groups (p < 0.05). In the FMF attack group, the CD144+ and CD146+ EMP were significantly correlated with CRP. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that endothelial damage is present especially in the active period of the disease in children with FMF. The endothelial dysfunction becomes an overt parallel with inflammation.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by the progression of irreversible airflow limitation and is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although several crucial mechanisms of COPD pathogenesis have been studied, the precise mechanism remains unknown. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies, are released from almost all cell types and are recognized as novel cell–cell communication tools. They have been shown to carry and transfer a wide variety of molecules, such as microRNAs, messenger RNAs, and proteins, which are involved in physiological functions and the pathology of various diseases. Recently, EVs have attracted considerable attention in pulmonary research. In this review, we summarize the recent findings of EV-mediated COPD pathogenesis. We also discuss the potential clinical usefulness of EVs as biomarkers and therapeutic agents for the treatment of COPD.

Abstract
The concept of enhancing structural integrity of mitochondria has emerged as a novel therapeutic option for cardiovascular disease. Flow-induced increase in laminar shear stress is a potent physiological stimulant associated with exercise, which exerts atheroprotective effects in the vasculature. However, the effect of laminar shear stress on mitochondrial remodeling within the vascular endothelium and its related functional consequences remain largely unknown. Using in vitro and in vivo complementary studies, here, we report that aerobic exercise alleviates the release of endothelial microparticles in prehypertensive individuals and that these salutary effects are, in part, mediated by shear stress-induced mitochondrial biogenesis. Circulating levels of total (CD31(+)/CD42a(-)) and activated (CD62E(+)) microparticles released by endothelial cells were significantly decreased (∼40% for both) after a 6-mo supervised aerobic exercise training program in individuals with prehypertension. In cultured human endothelial cells, laminar shear stress reduced the release of endothelial microparticles, which was accompanied by an increase in mitochondrial biogenesis through a sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)-dependent mechanism. Resveratrol, a SIRT1 activator, treatment showed similar effects. SIRT1 knockdown using small-interfering RNA completely abolished the protective effect of shear stress. Disruption of mitochondrial integrity by either antimycin A or peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α small-interfering RNA significantly increased the number of total, and activated, released endothelial microparticles, and shear stress restored these back to basal levels. Collectively, these data demonstrate a critical role of endothelial mitochondrial integrity in preserving endothelial homeostasis. Moreover, prolonged laminar shear stress, which is systemically elevated during aerobic exercise in the vessel wall, mitigates endothelial dysfunction by promoting mitochondrial biogenesis.

Abstract
It is widely accepted that diabetes mellitus (DM) impairs endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity as well as enhances the production of reactive oxygen species, thus resulting in diminished nitric oxide bioavailability and the consequent pro-atherogenetic alterations. Important biomarkers of the vasculature are related to endothelial dysfunction, to inflammatory and coagulation processes, and to oxidative stress in DM. Several therapeutic strategies might exert favorable effects on the vasculature of diabetic patients, such as insulin analogues, antihypertensive agents, statins, and hypoglycemic agents, whereas in spite of the prominent role of oxidative stress in diabetes, antioxidant therapy remains controversial. The use of specific biomarkers related to vascular function could be a useful therapeutic approach in such patients.
