Sonic hedgehog carried by microparticles corrects endothelial injury through nitric oxide release

Abstract: Microparticles (MPs) are small fragments generated from the plasma membrane after cell stimulation. Among the candidate proteins harbored by MPs, we recently showed that sonic hedgehog (Shh) is present in MPs generated from activated/apoptotic human T lymphocytes [Martínez et al., Blood (2006) vol. 108, 3012-3020]. We show here that Shh carried by MPs induces nitric oxide (NO) release from endothelial cells, triggers changes in the expression and phosphorylation of enzymes related to the NO pathway, and decrea… Show more

“…21 Cells were treated for 24 hours by MPs from patients or healthy subjects at the circulating levels of MPs detected in the blood of each patient or healthy subject, as previously performed in other pathologies. 22,23 In another set of experiments, cells were treated with vehicle (anti-CD61 microbeads alone), platelet-or nonplatelet-derived MPs from MS patients before NO production being assessed.…”

“…Besides, the above effects of MPs are related to their components, which depend on cell origin and on stimuli used to generate them (11,12). Thus, in previous studies, we have shown that MPs generated from activated/apoptotic lymphocytes induced cell differentiation and NO production by a morphogen-dependent mechanism (12,13). In contrast, when MPs were produced from apoptotic lymphocytes, they did not bear morphogen, resulting in a lack of cell differentiation (12) and they induced vascular dysfunction (8,14).…”

“…For example, anti-coagulant endothelial derived microparticles bearing protein C receptor (54,55) and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (56) have recently been described, whilst T cell MP that can enhance NO-mediated vasorelaxation have also been identified (57). Further work is required to determine whether there is a sub-population of microparticles elicited during the blood:vascular cell interactions described here that function as a negative feedback mechanism to counteract detrimental pro-atherogenic signaling pathways, whether induced by microparticles or other circulating factors.…”
