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.
In former studies, dinucleoside polyphosphates were quantified using ion-pair reversed-phase perfusion chromatography columns, which allows a detection limit in the micromolar range. The aim of this study was both to describe a chromatographic assay with an increased efficiency of the dinucleoside separation, which enables the reduction of analytical run times, and to establish a chromatographic assay using conditions, which allow MALDI-mass spectrometric analysis of the resulting fractions. We compared the performance of conventional silica reversed phase chromatography columns, a perfusion chromatography column and a monolithic reversed-phase C18 chromatography column. The effects of different ion-pair reagents, flow-rates and gradients on the separation of synthetic diadenosine polyphosphates as well as of diadenosine polyphosphates isolated from human platelets were analysed. Sensitivity and resolution of the monolithic reversed-phase chromatography column were both higher than that of the perfusion chromatography and the conventional reversed phase chromatography columns. Using a monolithic reversed-phase C18 chromatography column, diadenosine polyphosphates were separable baseline not only in the presence of tetrabutylammonium hydrogensulfate (TBA) but also in the presence of triethylammonium acetate (TEAA) as ion-pair reagent. The later reagent is useful because, in contrast to TBA, it is compatible with MALDI mass-spectrometric methods. This makes TEAA particularly suitable for identification of unknown nucleoside polyphosphates. Furthermore, because of the lower backpressure of monolithic reversed-phase chromatography columns, we were able to significantly increase the flow rate, decreasing the amount of time for the analysis close to 50%, especially using TBA as ion-pair reagent. In summary, monolithic reversed phase C18 columns markedly increase the sensitivity and resolution of dinucleoside polyphosphate analysis in a time-efficient manner compared to reversed-phase perfusion chromatography columns or conventional reversed-phase columns. Therefore, further dinucleoside polyphosphate analytic assays should be based on monolithic silica C18 columns instead of perfusion chromatography or conventional silica reversed phase chromatography columns. In conclusion, the use of monolithic silica C18 columns will lead to isolation and quantification of up to now unknown dinucleoside polyphosphates. These chromatography columns may facilitate further research on the biological roles of dinucleoside polyphosphates.
After vessel injury, platelets adhere to the subendothelial matrix. Platelet adhesion leads to activation of the platelet integrin alpha(IIb)beta3, which then binds to fibrinogen, leading to platelet aggregation. It has been shown that a beta3-integrin binding protein, beta3-endonexin, can activate the integrin alpha(IIb)beta3 expressed in transfected CHO cells. Several isoforms of beta3-endonexin are known but it is not clear which isoforms are expressed in platelets and what role they may play during haemostasis. Here, we show that the long form of beta3-endonexin (EN-L) can be detected in platelet lysates several hours after thrombus formation, after long-term storage of platelets and after glucose deprivation. After subcellular fractionation, EN-L is found in the detergent insoluble fraction suggesting that it might be associated with the cytoskeleton. EN-L generation is temperature and Ca++ dependent and requires physiological salt concentrations. Proteolysis is responsible for the appearance of EN-L since a calpain inhibitor prevents its formation and the addition of calpain to platelet lysates induces its formation. The appearance of EN-L seems to be linked to apoptotic events occurring during long-term storage of platelets and, possibly, during late steps of haemostasis after thrombus formation.
