Proposed mechanisms underlying the positive therapeutic effects of circulating microparticles on critical limb ischemia. Lc-MPs = lung cancer-derived circulating microparticles; NO = nitric oxide; VEGFR2 = vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2; SDF-1α = stromal cell-derived factor 1 alpha; ANGPT = angiopoietin; eNOS = endothelial nitric oxide synthase; HGF = hepatocyte growth factor; vWF = von Willebrand factor; IFBF = Ratio of ischemic to normal blood flow; PARP = poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase; TGF-β = transforming growth factor beta; BMP = bone morphogenesis protein.
