Up-Regulated Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Endothelial Cells Mediates Platelet Microvesicle-Induced Angiogenesis

Abstract: Background/Aims: Platelet microvesicles (PMVs) contribute to angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, but the mechanisms underlying these contributions have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, we investigated whether PMVs regulate the angiogenic properties of endothelial cells (ECs) via mechanisms extending beyond the transport of angiogenic regulators from platelets. Methods: In vitro Matrigel tube formation assay and in vivo Matrigel plug assay were used to evaluate the pro-angiogenic activity of PMVs. … Show more

“…Moreover, levels of metalloprotease expression and activity; mostly MMP-2 and MMP-9, were upregulated in HUVEC. These pro-angiogenic and pro-migratory effects were abolished with the inhibition of MMPs (Sun et al, 2017). Angiogenesis can also be regulated by lymphocyte-derived EVs.…”

“…THBS1 prevents the activation of MMPs via type I repeats (Bein & Simons 2000) and suppresses the activation of MMP9 by binding to its inactive form (Rodriguez-Manzaneque et al 2001). In HUVEC cells, inhibition of MMP activation decreased proangiogenic and promigratory effects induced by platelet microvesicles (Sun et al 2017). On the other hand, THBS1 has also been reported to increase MMP2 and -9 activation in several tumor cells (Ren et al 2006) and vascular smooth muscle cells (Lee et al 2003).…”
