OBJECTIVES: Platelet storage lesion (PSL) severely impairs platelet function during storage, presenting a major hurdle in transfusion medicine; however, the dynamic interplay between global proteomic changes and post-translational modifications (PTMs) underlying these functional deteriorations remains insufficiently characterized. Here, we report the first comprehensive multi-omics analysis integrating global proteomics, acetylomics, and succinylomics to dissect the molecular dynamics during platelet storage. METHODS: We performed quantification of global proteomics, acetylome and succinylome based on TMT-labeled LC-MS/MS analysis, combined with antibody-affinity enrichment and purification. Dynamic molecular changes and functional transformation of platelet were also characterized under proper conditions stored for 1, 3, 5, 7 days, respectively. RESULTS: We systematically characterized 3,609 proteins, 1,308 acetylation sites, and 1,947 succinylation sites across multiple storage time points (D1, D3, D5, D7). We distinct temporal patterns of post-translational modifications, with succinylation showing more extensive coverage than acetylation in platelets. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed extensive metabolic reprogramming involving complement activation, energy metabolism, and cellular detoxification processes. The identification of specific motif patterns provided mechanistic insights into the functional specificity of these modifications. Random forest machine learning identified 20 core regulatory proteins representing critical nodes in PSL development. Furthermore, we employed real - time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT - QPCR) to measure the expression levels of key genes related to platelet function and PTM - associated pathways. CONCLUSION: By mapping the interplay between proteomic abundance shifts and PTM dynamics, this study provides a multidimensional understanding of PSL, establishing a foundational framework for optimizing storage protocols and enhancing transfusion safety.
Physiological agonists increase cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration to regulate a number of cellular processes. The platelet thrombin receptors, PAR (protease-activated receptor) 1 PAR-4 and GPIb-IX-V (glycoprotein Ib-IX-V) have been described as potential contributors of thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. Platelets present two separate Ca2+ stores, the DTS (dense tubular system) and acidic organelles, differentiated by the distinct sensitivity of their respective SERCAs (sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca2+-ATPases) to TG (thapsigargin) and TBHQ [2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone]. However, the involvement of the thrombin receptors in Ca2+ release from each Ca2+ store remains unknown. Depletion of the DTS using ADP, which releases Ca2+ solely from the DTS, in combination with 10 nM TG, to selectively inhibit SERCA2 located on the DTS reduced Ca2+ release evoked by the PAR-1 agonist, SFLLRN, and the PAR-4 agonist, AYPGKF, by 80 and 50% respectively. Desensitization of PAR-1 and PAR-4 or pre-treatment with the PAR-1 and PAR-4 antagonists SCH 79797 and tcY-NH2 reduced Ca2+ mobilization induced by thrombin, and depletion of the DTS after desensitization or blockade of PAR-1 and PAR-4 had no significant effect on Ca2+ release stimulated by thrombin through the GPIb-IX-V receptor. Converse experiments showed that depletion of the acidic stores using TBHQ reduced Ca2+ release evoked by SFLLRN or AYPGKF, by 20 and 50% respectively, and abolished thrombin-stimulated Ca2+ release through the GPIb-IX-V receptor when PAR-1 and PAR-4 had been desensitized or blocked. Our results indicate that thrombin-induced activation of PAR-1 and PAR-4 evokes Ca2+ release from both Ca2+ stores, while activation of GPIb-IX-V by thrombin releases Ca2+ solely from the acidic compartments in human platelets.
Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (GRGDS) was modified by conjugation to lauric acid (LA) to facilitate incorporation into the matrix of a poly(carbonate-urea)urethane (PCU) used in vascular bypass grafts. GRGDS and LA-GRGDS were synthesized using solid phase Fmoc chemistry and characterized by high performance liquid chromatography and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. LA-GRGDS was passively coated and incorporated as nanoparticle dispersion on the PCU films. Biocompatibility of the modified surfaces was investigated. Endothelial cells seeded on LA-GRGDS coated and incorporated PCU showed after 48 h and 72 h a significant (p < 0.05) increase in metabolism compared with unmodified PCU. The platelet adhesion and hemolysis studies showed that the modification of PCU had no adverse effect. In conclusion, LA-conjugated RGD derivatives, such as LA-GRGDS, that permit solubility into solvents used in solvent casting methodologies should have wide applicability in polymer development for use in coronary, vascular, and dialysis bypass grafts, and furthermore scaffolds utilized for tissue regeneration and tissue engineering.
