Abstract
Blood products are indicated for a plethora of conditions in several settings, with a variety of products available for transfusion, from highly processed specific components to whole blood. Matching the donor product to the recipient is crucial in avoiding serious transfusion reactions, with the extent of matching depending on the physiological need, setting, and product. There are important factors related to sex and gender differences in donated blood products, adverse reactions to those products, interplay with underlying pathology, as well as sociocultural differences in the collection. This article will review key sex- and gender-specific research related to the use of blood products with an emphasis on the acute care setting.

Repeated exposure rather than the total volume of transfused components may influence the incidence of allergic transfusion reactions. Transfusion 2015; 55:2576-81.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The plasma fraction of blood components has an essential role in the etiology of allergic transfusion reactions (ATRs). The difference of incidences of ATRs between fresh-frozen plasma (FFP) and platelet concentrates (PCs), in which plasma is the main component, is not clearly understood. This study compares the frequency of ATRs to FFP versus PCs on both first and subsequent (nonfirst) transfusions and considers the factors influencing the risk of ATRs. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Five hospitals agreed to systematically collect and share 2 years of data (January 2010 through December 2011). This was a retrospective observational analysis of data including the number of transfusion episodes and ATRs for FFP and PCs on first-transfusion patients (without transfusion history) and previously transfused patients. RESULTS The incidence of ATRs to PCs (2.51%) was significantly higher than to FFP (1.68%) on subsequent transfusions (p < 0.001). On the other hand, there were no significant differences in the incidences of ATRs to FFP (2.67%) and PCs (2.82%) on first transfusions. This discrepancy was most pronounced among males: FFP versus PCs on first transfusions, 2.02% versus 2.60% (p = 0.30); and on subsequent transfusions, 1.58% versus 2.46% (p = 0.0007). Among females, FFP versus PCs on first transfusions was 3.59% versus 3.13% (p = 0.61) and on subsequent transfusions was 1.87% versus 2.61% (p = 0.029). CONCLUSION Repeated exposure rather than the total volume of transfused components may influence the incidence of ATRs.

Morphological and flow-cytometric analysis of haemin-induced human neutrophil activation: implications for transfusion-related acute lung injury. BLOOD TRANSFUSION = TRASFUSIONE DEL SANGUE 2012; 11:53-60.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is associated with vascular endothelial cell injury following neutrophil activation. Recently, it has been suggested that haem-related molecules induce activation of neutrophils and that erythrocyte-derived substances contained in blood preparations are involved in TRALI. We observed the morphological effects and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production of haem-related molecules and investigated the effects of signal transduction inhibitors on haem-induced neutrophil activation. MATERIALS AND METHODS The polymorphonuclear cell fraction was isolated and stimulated using a control stimulant, PMA or fMLP, or by haem-related molecules, haemin, ferric citrate, or protoporphyrin IX. After stimulation, neutrophil was analysed using electron microscopy, a flowcytometer (FCM) and confocal laser scanning microscope to determine the fluorescent intensity of aminophenyl fluorescein (to detect ROS). RESULTS In FCM analysis, haemin and protoporphyrin IX, both of which have a porphyrin ring, induced ROS production in neutrophils. Ferric citrate, which has no porphyrin ring, did not induce neutrophil activation. Haemin alone induced ROS production at relatively high concentrations, whereas low-level fMLP acted as an agonist in the presence of low concentrations of haemin. Haem-related molecules induced ROS production in neutrophil granules through signal transduction in a way similar to PMA. However, in electron microscopy studies, haemin stimulated neutrophils showed minute process at their surface and did not show the vacuolation observable following stimulation with PMA or fMLP. DISCUSSION We suggest that low concentrations of haem-related molecules with porphyrin rings in the presence of other stimulating agent are important for ROS production and possibly the onset of TRALI. The ROS production induced by these molecules is dependent on a signal transduction pathway in a way similar to PMA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although quantitative evidence is lacking, it is generally believed that the majority of cases of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) are caused by female blood donors. We aimed to examine the relation between female donors and the occurrence of TRALI. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We performed an international, multicenter case-referent study. TRALI patients who were diagnosed clinically, independent of serology or donor sex, and had received transfusions either only from male donors or only from female donors (unisex cases) were selected. The observed sex distribution among the donors of these TRALI patients was compared to the expected sex distribution, based on the relevant donor populations. RESULTS Eighty-three clinical TRALI cases were included; 67 cases received only red blood cells (RBCs), 13 only plasma-rich products, and three both. Among RBC recipients the relative risk (RR) of TRALI after a transfusion from a female donor was 1.2 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.69-2.1) and among plasma-rich product recipients the RR was 19 (95% CI, 1.9-191). The p value for the difference between RBCs and plasma was 0.023. CONCLUSION Our data support the notion that plasma from female donors is associated with an increased risk of TRALI, while RBCs from female donors are not.

Gender-specific transfusion affects tumor-associated neutrophil: macrophage ratios in murine pancreatic adenocarcinoma. J Gastrointest Surg 2010; 14:1560-5.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Perioperative blood transfusion has been linked to decreased survival for pancreas cancer. Noting clinical data associating female blood products with increased morbidity, our lab has demonstrated that transfusion of female blood augments metastatic events compared to male blood in an immunocompetent murine pancreatic cancer model. It has been suggested that tumor-associated macrophages correlate with tumor progression by promoting angiogenesis. More recently, tumor-associated neutrophils have been implicated in aggressive tumor behavior. We hypothesize that differences in gender-specific transfusion-mediated pancreatic cancer progression are due to microenvironmental changes within the tumor. To test this hypothesis, we examined tumor-associated neutrophils and macrophage ratios in male and female mice with pancreatic cancer receiving blood transfusion from male or female donors. METHODS C57/BL6 mice, age 7-9 weeks, underwent splenic inoculation with 2.5 × 10(5) PanO2 murine pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells. Mice were transfused on post-op day 7 with 1 ml/kg supernatant from day 42 male or female packed red cells. Necropsy was performed at 5 weeks or earlier for clinical deterioration, and tumors harvested. Frozen sections (5 µm) were stained for neutrophils and macrophages by immunofluorescence. Data were analyzed using ANOVA; p ≤ 0.05 was used to determine significance; N ≥ 3 per group. RESULTS Clinically, male mice had greater morbidity and mortality than female mice when receiving female blood products, with roughened hair coat, development of ascites and death due to bowel obstruction. In evaluating the tumor microenvironment from mice receiving female blood products, male mice were noted to have a greater neutrophil to macrophage ratio than female mice, 0.176 ± 0.028 vs. 0.073 ± 0.012, p = 0.03. When examining neutrophil to macrophage ratio in mice receiving male blood products, no difference was noted (p = 0.48). CONCLUSIONS Male mice with pancreas cancer have greater morbidity than female mice when receiving female blood products. Furthermore, the difference in neutrophil to macrophage ratio suggests that gender-specific blood transfusion promotes aggressive tumor behavior in male mice via microenvironmental changes. These data warrant further study to delineate sex-related differences in pancreatic cancer progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Males with pancreatic cancer have decreased survival compared with females. Interestingly, perioperative blood transfusions have been shown to reduce survival in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Recent evidence incriminates blood transfusions from female donors as a causative factor in acute lung injury. We therefore hypothesize that male mice with pancreatic cancer will have greater tumor progression than female mice in response to transfusion. METHODS Mice previously inoculated with pancreatic cancer cells received an intravenous injection of acellular plasma collected from single donor erythrocytes from either male or female donors. Control mice received an equal volume of intravenous saline. Necropsy to determine metastasis was performed in female mice at 4 wk status post-transfusion. The male group necessitated sacrifice at 3 wk post-transfusion due to clinical deterioration. RESULTS Male mice developed more metastatic events than female mice, and this was accentuated when receiving blood from female donors. Male mice experienced weight loss within 2 wk of tail vein injection, and three mice in the male transfused groups died secondary to malignancy. Female mice did not manifest substantial weight loss, and did not die in the study time period. CONCLUSION Male mice, compared with female, had significantly more metastatic events following transfusion of plasma from stored erythrocytes in an immunocompetent murine model of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Moreover, the adverse effect of transfusion was augmented with female donor blood. These data are consistent with clinical outcomes from centers of excellence in treating pancreatic cancer and warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is the major cause of transfusion related morbidity and mortality, world wide. Efforts to reduce or eliminate this serious complication of blood transfusion are hampered by an incomplete understanding of its pathogenesis. Currently, TRALI is thought to be mediated by donor alloantibodies directed against host leukocytes or the result of 2 distinct clinical events. For both proposed mechanisms, the neutrophil is the key effector cell. This article reviews TRALI pathophysiology, explores the role of the neutrophil, details practical information for appropriate diagnosis and promotes further studies into the pathogenesis of TRALI.

Abstract
To evaluate the specific reactivity of HLA Class I antibodies (HLA-I Abs) in acute non-hemolytic transfusion reactions (ANHTRs) using solid phase assays (SPAs) and conventional complement-dependent lymphocyte cytotoxicity test (LCT). ANHTRs are major issues in transfusion medicine. Anti-leukocyte antibodies have been implicated as one of the causative agents of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) and febrile reaction. Antibodies to HLA Class I and/or Class II (HLA Abs) have been intensively studied using SPAs for TRALI, but not for febrile reaction. About 107 patients and 186 donors associated with ANHTRs were screened for HLA Abs by SPAs such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the Luminex method. When HLA-I Ab was detected, its specific reactivity was evaluated by comparing its specificity identified by the Luminex method using recombinant HLA molecules and cognate HLA antigens (Ags), as well as LCT with or without anti-human globulin (AHG). The incidences of HLA Abs were as high as 32·7% of patients' serum samples and 16% of donors' serum samples. The incidence of HLA-I Abs did not differ significantly between cases of febrile and allergic reactions. However, HLA-I Abs associated with febrile reaction showed a significantly higher rate of possessing specific reactivity to cognate HLA Ags than those associated with allergic reactions. In addition, the Luminex method enabled the detection of HLA-I Abs much earlier than AHG-LCT in serum samples from a patient with febrile reaction and platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR). SPAs seem more useful than AHG-LCT for evaluating reactivity of antibodies in ANHTR cases.
