Abstract:
Platelet-derived microparticle (PMP)is a heterogeneous vesicle (< 1 μm)generated from the plasma membrane when platelets are activated by various stimulation,which is composed of serous cystic fragments and α-granules.The formation,release and level of circulating PMP can reflect the platelet activation.The functions of PMP include facilitating coagulation,promoting adhesion of platelet and leukocyte to the subendothelial membrane,promoting angiogenesis and stimulating the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle.High level of PMP appears in many cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis,diabetes mellitus,Kawasaki disease and so on.This paper is to review the mechanism of PMP in the vascular endothelial injury.
