Abstract
Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) are involved in various cardiovascular pathologies and play remarkable roles in communication between endothelial cells (ECs), which are constantly exposed to mechanical cyclic stretch (CS) following blood pressure. However, the roles of EMPs induced by CS in EC homeostasis are still unclear. Both fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and western blotting revealed the activation of Src in ECs was significantly increased by 5% CS‐induced EMPs. Furthermore, proteomic analysis revealed that the contents were obvious different in the EMPs between 5%‐ and 15%‐group. Based on the bioinformatic analysis, CD151 on EMPs was predicted to activate Src, which was further confirmed by both FRET and western blotting. Moreover, the expression of CD151 on EMPs was significantly increased by 5% CS and involved in the binding of EMPs to ECs. EC apoptosis, which was significantly decreased by 5% CS‐derived EMPs, showed obvious increase after pretreatment with Src inhibitor in target ECs. Our present research suggests that mechanical stretch changes the components of EMPs, which in turn modulates EC apoptosis by Src activation. CD151 expressed on CS‐induced EMPs may play important roles in EC communication and homeostasis.Keywords
