Abstract:
Endothelial microparticles ( EMP ) are released from activated or apoptotic endothelial cells ( EC s) and can be taken up by adjacent EC s, but their effect on vascular inflammation after engulfment is largely unknown. We sought to determine the role of EMP in EC inflammation. In vitro , EMP treatment significantly reduced tumour necrosis factor‐α‐induced endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule ( ICAM )‐1 expression on mRNA and protein level, whereas there was no effect on vascular cell adhesion molecule‐1 expression. Reduced ICAM ‐1 expression after EMP treatment resulted in diminished monocyte adhesion in vitro . In vivo , systemic treatment of ApoE−/− mice with EMP significantly reduced murine endothelial ICAM ‐1 expression. To explore the underlying mechanisms, Taqman micro RNA array was performed and micro RNA (miR)‐222 was identified as the strongest regulated miR between EMP and EC s. Following experiments demonstrated that miR‐222 was transported into recipient EC s by EMP and functionally regulated expression of its target protein ICAM ‐1 in vitro and in vivo . After simulating diabetic conditions, EMP derived from glucose‐treated EC s contained significantly lower amounts of miR‐222 and showed reduced anti‐inflammatory capacity in vitro and in vivo . Finally, circulating miR‐222 level was diminished in patients with coronary artery disease ( CAD ) compared to patients without CAD . EMP s promote anti‐inflammatory effects in vitro and in vivo by reducing endothelial ICAM ‐1 expression via the transfer of functional miR‐222 into recipient cells. In pathological hyperglycaemic conditions, EMP ‐mediated miR‐222‐dependent anti‐inflammatory effects are reduced.
