Abstract
Background Pathogen inactivation treatment (PIT) has been shown to alter platelet function, phenotype, morphology and to induce a faster aging of platelet concentrates (PCs). Key pieces of information are still missing to understand the impacts of PITs at the cellular level. Objectives This study investigated the impact of amotosalen/UVA on PCs, from a post-translational modifications (PTM) point of view. Phosphoproteomic analyses were conducted on resting platelets, right after the amotosalen/UVA treatment and compared with untreated PCs. Method A two-arm study setting was carried out to compare PIT (amotosalen/UVA) to untreated PCs, on day 1 post-donation. Based on a pool-and-split approach, 12 PCs were split into two groups (treated and untreated). Quantitative phosphoproteomics was performed using TMT technology to study the changes of phosphoproteins right after the PIT. Results A total of 3,906 proteins and 7,334 phosphosites were identified, and 2,473 proteins and 2,214 phosphosites were observed in at least 5 to 6 replicates. Compared to untreated platelets, PIT platelets exhibited an upregulation of the phosphorylation effects, with 109 phosphosites identified with a higher than 2-fold change. Two pathways were clearly identified. The mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) cascade, which triggers the granule secretion and the activation of the pS15 HSPB1. One of the shape change pathways was also observed with the inhibition of the Threonine 18 and Serine 19 phosphorylations on myosin light chain (MLC) protein after the amotosalen/UVA treatment. Conclusions This work provides a deep insight into the impact of amotosalen/UVA treatment from a phosphoprotein viewpoint on resting platelets. Clear changes in phosphorylation of proteins belonging to different platelet pathways were quantified. This discovery corroborates previous findings and fills missing parts of the effect of photochemical treatments on platelets.

Assessment of the impact of pathogen reduction technologies on the neutralizing activity of COVID-19 convalescent plasma. Transfus Apher Sci 2023:103688. [PMID: 36922242 PMCID: PMC9984302 DOI: 10.1016/j.transci.2023.103688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2023] [Indexed: 03/07/2023]
Abstract
COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP) could improve the clinical outcome of COVID-19 patients when high-titer CCP is administered in early stages of disease. However, CCP donors have a risk profile like first-time donors, pathogen reduction treatment (PRT) may mitigate such risk but should not impact CCP quality. The current study aims to assess the impact of PRT-technologies available in Saudi Arabia on the neutralizing activity of CCP. STUDY DESIGN: and Methods: CCP was collected from eligible donors by plasmapheresis. The neutralization titer was determined with an in-house microneutralization assay (MNA) using a local SARS-CoV-2 clinical isolate. Selected units were split and subject to PRT with amotosalen/UVA (AS) or Riboflavin/UVB (RB) (pairwise side-by-side comparison) followed by a second MNA analysis. 51 CCP units were collected, 27 were included in the analysis reaching the minimum MNA titer of 1:40 (4 reached high titer (≥1:250)). 27 CCP units were treated with AS and 14 with RB, the median MNA pre-treatment titer was 1:80 (1:40-640). The impact of AS and RB PRT on CCP neutralizing activity was not significantly different, nor in the total analysis neither in the pairwise comparison (94.6 vs 96.4 % retention, p > 0.05). No correlation of titer and blood group was observed, but a trend for increasing MNA titer with donor age, choosing donors with an age > 45 years would increase the number of high-titer CCP donors. The difference in impact of AS and RB on CCP MNA titer was below the limit of detection of the assay (0.5-fold).

Two novel platelet biotinylation methods and their impact on stored platelet concentrates in a blood bank environment. Transfusion 2022; 62:2324-2333. [PMID: 36190148 DOI: 10.1111/trf.17129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Storage of platelet concentrates (PCs) has an impact on platelet quality and possibly affects their functions after transfusion. The influence of processing and storage conditions of PCs on their in vivo function upon transfusion is unknown. One option for investigating this question is to implement an ex vivo labeling of human platelets, to analyze them after transfusion into heathy volunteers and/or patients. In this study, we developed two labeling methods employing biotin. METHODS Two methods of biotinylation were compared to a control (standard PC). The "Bio-Wash" process used washing steps to label all platelets within the PC; for the other method, "Bio-Direct," one fifth of the PC were directly labeled without washing steps. The control and the two biotinylated PCs were analyzed over 7 days of storage. Labeling efficiency, platelet counts, phenotypes, and functions, along with time and costs, were evaluated to select the best process. RESULTS Both methods achieved a stable labeling through the storage, with similar platelet counts and metabolism in comparison to control PCs. Bio-Wash showed higher activation phenotype and lower aggregation response in comparison to the Bio-Direct method. The Bio-Direct was performed within 1.5 h versus 3 h for the Bio-Wash. However, the Bio-Direct required 12 mg of biotin instead of 8 mg for the other process. CONCLUSION We set up two methods of biotinylation that can be easily implemented in a blood bank environment. The Bio-Direct process was preferred to the Bio-Wash because of its similarity, from a functional and phenotypic point of view, with standard PCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Measurement of antioxidant power (AOP) can be useful to validate the execution of the pathogen inactivation (PI) treatment of plasma units. The aim of this study was to evaluate the Theraflex technology for plasma units routinely used in Belgium. MATERIALS AND METHODS AOP was tested on plasma units treated by Theraflex with various non-complete treatment scenarios. AOP was quantified electrochemically using disposable devices and was expressed as equivalent ascorbic acid concentration. RESULTS During a complete PI treatment, AOP rose from 195 ± 32 to 230 ± 42 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid after addition of methylene blue (MB), and decreased to 192 ± 30 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid after illumination and finally to 177 ± 27 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid after final filtration. Without MB, the final filtration had no effect on the plasma AOP (197 ± 22 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid before filtration and 194 ± 22 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid after filtration). With no MB and no illumination, there was no significant difference between the plasma AOP at the beginning (188 ± 23 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid) and at the end of the process (179 ± 21 μmol/L eq. ascorbic acid). CONCLUSION AOP measurement may not indicate the effectiveness of the PI treatment.

Abstract
Standard platelet concentrates (PCs) stored at 22°C have a limited shelf life of 5 days. Because of the storage temperature, bacterial contamination of PCs can result in life‐threatening infections in transfused patients. The potential of blood components to cause infections through contaminating pathogens or transmitting blood‐borne diseases has always been a concern. The current safety practice to prevent pathogen transmission through blood transfusion starts with a stringent screening of donors and regulated testing of blood samples to ensure that known infections cannot reach transfusion products. Pathogen reduction technologies (PRTs), initially implemented to ensure the safety of plasma products, have been adapted to treat platelet products. In addition to reducing bacterial contamination, PRT applied to PCs can extend their shelf life up to 7 days, alleviating the impact of their shortage, while providing an additional safety layer against emerging blood‐borne infectious diseases. While a deleterious action of PRTs in quantitative and qualitative aspects of plasma is accepted, the impact of PRTs on the quality, function, and clinical efficacy of PCs has been under constant examination. The potential of PRTs to prevent the possibility of new emerging diseases to reach cellular blood components has been considered more hypothetical than real. In 2019, a coronavirus‐related disease (COVID‐19) became a pandemic. This episode should help when reconsidering the possibility of future blood transmissible threats. The following text intends to evaluate the impact of different PRTs on the quality, function, and clinical effectiveness of platelets within the perspective of a developing pandemic.

Abstract
Transfusion of platelet concentrates (PCs) is associated with several adverse patient reactions, the most common of which are febrile non-hemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTRs) and transfusion-associated bacterial-infection/transfusion-associated sepsis (T-ABI/TA-S). Diagnosis of T-ABI/T-AS requires a positive blood culture (BC) result from the transfusion recipient and also a positive identification of bacterial contamination within a test aliquot of the transfused PC. In a significant number of cases, clinical symptoms post-transfusion are reported by the clinician, yet the BCs from the patient and/or PC are negative. The topic of 'missed bacterial detection' has therefore been the focus of several primary research studies and review articles, suggesting that biofilm formation in the blood bag and the presence of viable but non-culturable (VBNC) pathogens are the major causes of this missed detection. However, platelets are emerging as key players in early host responses to infection and as such, the aforementioned biofilm formation could elicit 'platelet priming', which could lead to significant immunological reactions in the host, in the absence of planktonic bacteria in the host bloodstream. This review reflects on what is known about missed detection and relates this to the emerging understanding of the effect of bacterial contamination on the platelets themselves and the significant role played by platelets in exacerbation of an immune response to infection within the transfusion setting.

Abstract
Platelets are small anucleate blood cells that play vital roles in haemostasis and thrombosis, besides other physiological and pathophysiological processes. These roles are tightly regulated by a complex network of signalling pathways. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic techniques are contributing not only to the identification and quantification of new platelet proteins, but also reveal post-translational modifications of these molecules, such as acetylation, glycosylation and phosphorylation. Moreover, target proteomic analysis of platelets can provide molecular biomarkers for genetic aberrations with established or non-established links to platelet dysfunctions. In this report, we review 67 reports regarding platelet proteomic analysis and signalling on a molecular base. Collectively, these provide detailed insight into the: (i) technical developments and limitations of the assessment of platelet (sub)proteomes; (ii) molecular protein changes upon ageing of platelets; (iii) complexity of platelet signalling pathways and functions in response to collagen, rhodocytin, thrombin, thromboxane A2 and ADP; (iv) proteomic effects of endothelial-derived mediators such as prostacyclin and the anti-platelet drug aspirin; and (v) molecular protein changes in platelets from patients with congenital disorders or cardiovascular disease. However, sample sizes are still low and the roles of differentially expressed proteins are often unknown. Based on the practical and technical possibilities and limitations, we provide a perspective for further improvements of the platelet proteomic field.

Abstract
Platelets are components of the blood that are highly reactive, and they quickly respond to multiple physiological and pathophysiological processes. In the last decade, it became clear that platelets are the key components of circulation, linking hemostasis, innate, and acquired immunity. Protein composition, localization, and activity are crucial for platelet function and regulation. The current state of mass spectrometry-based proteomics has tremendous potential to identify and quantify thousands of proteins from a minimal amount of material, unravel multiple post-translational modifications, and monitor platelet activity during drug treatments. This review focuses on the role of proteomics in understanding the molecular basics of the classical and newly emerging functions of platelets. including the recently described role of platelets in immunology and the development of COVID-19.The state-of-the-art proteomic technologies and their application in studying platelet biogenesis, signaling, and storage are described, and the potential of newly appeared trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS) is highlighted. Additionally, implementing proteomic methods in platelet transfusion medicine, and as a diagnostic and prognostic tool, is discussed.

Sulfenylome analysis of pathogen-inactivated platelets reveals the presence of cysteine oxidation in integrin signaling pathway and cytoskeleton regulation. J Thromb Haemost 2021; 19:233-247.

Abstract
Essentials Cysteine oxidation to sulfenic acid plays a key role in redox regulation and signal transduction. Platelet sulfenylome was studied by quantitative proteomics in pathogen inactivated platelets. One hundred and seventy-four sulfenylated proteins were identified in resting platelets. Pathogen inactivation oxidized integrin βIII, which could activate the mitogen-activated protein kinases pathway. ABSTRACT: Background Cysteine-containing protein modifications are involved in numerous biological processes such redox regulation or signal transduction. During the preparation and storage of platelet concentrates, cell functions and protein regulations are impacted. In spite of several proteomic investigations, the platelet sulfenylome, ie, the proteins containing cysteine residues (R-SH) oxidized to sulfenic acid (R-SOH), has not been characterized. Methods A dimedone-based sulfenic acid tagging and enrichment coupled to a mass spectrometry identification workflow was developed to identify and quantify the sulfenic acid-containing proteins in platelet concentrates treated or not with an amotosalen/ultraviolet A (UVA) pathogen inactivation technique. Results One hundred and seventy-four sulfenylated proteins were identified belonging mainly to the integrin signal pathway and cytoskeletal regulation by Rho GTPase. The impact on pathogen inactivated platelet concentrates was weak compared to untreated ones where three sulfenylated proteins (myosin heavy chain 9, integrin βIII, and transgelin 2) were significantly affected by amotosalen/UVA treatment. Of particular interest, the reported oxidation of cysteine residues in integrin βIII is known to activate the receptor αIIbβIII. Following the pathogen inactivation, it might trigger the phosphorylation of p38MAPK and explain the lesions reported in the literature. Moreover, procaspase activating compound-1 (PAC-1) binding assays on platelet activation showed an increased response to adenosine diphosphate exacerbated by the tagging of proteins with dimedone. This result corroborates the hypothesis of an oxidation-triggered activation of αIIbβIII by the pathogen inactivation treatment. Conclusions The present work completes missing information on the platelet proteome and provides new insights on the effect of pathogen inactivation linked to integrin signaling and cytoskeleton regulation.

Abstract
AbstractThe characterization of platelet concentrates (PCs) in transfusion medicine has been performed with different analytical methods and platelet lesions (from biochemistry to cell biology) have been documented. In routine quality assessment and validation of manufacturing processes of PCs for transfusion purposes, only basic parameters are monitored and the platelet functions are not included. However, PCs undergo several manipulations during the processing and the basic parameters do not provide sensitive analyses to properly picture out the impact of the blood component preparation and storage on platelets. To improve the transfusion supply chain and the platelet functionalities, additional parameters should be used. The present short review will focus on the different techniques to monitor ex vivo platelet lesions from phenotype characterization to advanced omic analyses. Then, the opportunities to use these methods in quality control, process validation, development, and research will be discussed. Functional markers should be considered because they would be an advantage for the future developments in transfusion medicine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The antioxidant power measurement can be useful to validate the execution of the pathogen inactivation treatment of platelet concentrates. The aim of this study is to evaluate the technology on different blood preparations including INTERCEPT and Mirasol treatments that are in routine use in Belgium and Luxemburg. MATERIALS AND METHODS The antioxidant power measurement was tested on 78 apheresis platelet concentrates and 54 pools of buffy-coats-derived platelet concentrates before and after INTERCEPT treatment. In addition, 100 Reveos platelet pools were tested before and after Mirasol treatment. The antioxidant power was quantified electrochemically using disposable devices and was expressed as equivalent ascorbic acid concentration. RESULTS Mean results for apheresis platelet concentrates were of 90 ± 14 and 35 ± 10 µmol/l eq. ascorbic acid before and after INTERCEPT treatment, respectively. The mean results for pools of buffy-coats-derived platelet concentrates were of 81 ± 10 and 29 ± 4 eq. µmol/l ascorbic acid before and after INTERCEPT treatment, respectively. For buffy-coats-derived platelet concentrates treated by Mirasol technology, the mean results were of 98 ± 11 and 32 ± 10 µmol/l eq. ascorbic acid before and after illumination, respectively. CONCLUSION The antioxidant power significantly decreases with pathogen inactivation treatments for platelet concentrates treated by INTERCEPT or Mirasol technologies.
