Dynamic lysine acetylation and succinylation of platelet proteins regulates platelet storage lesion: mechanistic insights from multi-omics.

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.

Complex effects of different green tea catechins on human platelets.

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a major component of green tea, has been previously shown to inhibit platelet aggregation. The effects of other green tea catechins on platelet function are not known. Pre-incubation with EGCG concentration-dependently inhibited thrombin-induced aggregation and phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and extracellular signal-regulated kinases-1/2. In contrast EGCG stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of platelet proteins, including Syk and SLP-76 but inhibited phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase. Other catechins did not inhibit platelet aggregation. Interestingly, when EGCG was added to stirred platelets, a tyrosine kinase-dependent stimulation of platelet aggregation was observed. The two other catechins containing a galloyl group in the 3' position (catechin gallate, epicatechin gallate) also stimulated platelet aggregation, while catechins without a galloyl group (catechin, epicatechin) or the catechin with a galloyl group in the 2' position (epigallocatechin) did not.

Endotoxins stimulate neutrophil adhesion followed by synthesis and release of platelet-activating factor in microparticles.

Lipopolysaccharides and triacyl-cysteine-modified proteins of Gram-negative and positive organisms are potent endotoxins. Animal models show that the receptor for platelet-activating factor (PAF) is responsible for many of the deleterious effects of endotoxin, where regulated, localized PAF production localizes the inflammatory response. In contrast, biologically active analogs of PAF (PAF-like lipids) are generated by oxidative attack on phospholipids by chemical reactions that are unregulated and unlocalized. The identity and distribution of the PAF receptor ligand in endotoxemia is unknown. We found human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) were a significant source of PAF receptor agonists after stimulation by either class of endotoxin. Production of PAF receptor agonists required that the PMN adhere to a surface, and adhesion (and therefore accumulation of PAF-like bioactivity) in response to endotoxic stimulation was delayed for several minutes. PAF-like oxidized phospholipids were found by mass spectroscopy, but biosynthetic PAF accounted for most of the phospholipid agonists arising from endotoxic stimulation. A significant portion of the PAF made by PMNs was secreted, in contrast to its near complete retention by other inflammatory cells. Endotoxic stimulation induced a respiratory burst with the production of superoxide and the formation and shedding of microparticles. Free and microparticle-bound PAF appeared in the media, and blocking microvesiculation with calpeptin blocked PAF release. The released material activated platelets, and platelets co-aggregated with endotoxin-stimulated PMNs. Adherent PMNs therefore behave differently than suspended cells and are a significant source of free PAF after endotoxin exposure. Leukocytes can couple endotoxic challenge to the widespread circulatory and inflammatory effects of endotoxin.
