Microvesicles as Vehicles for Tissue Regeneration: Changing of the Guards
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Microvesicles (MVs) have been recognised as mediators of stem cell function, enabling and guiding their regenerative effects. RECENT FINDINGS MVs constitute one unique size class of extracellular vesicles (EVs) directly shed from the cell plasma membrane. They facilitate cell-to-cell communication via intercellular transfer of proteins, mRNA and microRNA (miRNA). MVs derived...
متن کاملMicrovesicles: mediators of extracellular communication during cancer progression.
Microvesicles are generated by the outward budding and fission of membrane vesicles from the cell surface. Recent studies suggest that microvesicle shedding is a highly regulated process that occurs in a spectrum of cell types and, more frequently, in tumor cells. Microvesicles have been widely detected in various biological fluids including peripheral blood, urine and ascitic fluids, and their...
متن کاملThe emerging role of microvesicles in cellular therapies for organ/tissue regeneration.
The field of regenerative medicine is searching for a source of stem and progenitor cells that can be safely and efficiently employed for regeneration of damaged organs (e.g. heart, liver or kidney) [1–3]. In experimental animal models of organ damage (e.g. heart infarct), different types of stem cells isolated from adult tissues have been employed, including bone marrow-derived mononuclear cel...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species as mediators of tissue protection and injury.
Extensive research efforts during the last three decades resulted in a large body of experimental evidence that suggests an important role of the disbalance between generation and elimination of the oxygen and xenobiotic derived free radicals in physiological and pathological processes. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated in many metabolic pathways, and are entering the organisms from e...
