ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Collagen- and thrombin-activated (COAT) platelets (PLTs), generated by dual-agonist stimulation with collagen and thrombin (THR), enhance THR generation at the site of vessel wall injury. There is evidence that higher amounts of procoagulant COAT PLTs are associated with stroke, while a decreased ability to generate them is associated with bleeding diathesis. Our aim was to study PLT functions, particularly the ability to generate COAT PLTs, in PLT concentrates (PCs) from buffy coat. Thus, we investigated the effect of processing, pathogen inactivation treatment (amotosalen-UVA), and PC storage. STUDY DESIGN ANDMETHODS:
Two PCs from five donors each were pooled and split in two bags; one of them was pathogen inactivated and the other one was left untreated (n = 5). Flow cytometric analyses were performed immediately after PC preparation (Day 1) and thereafter on Days 2, 5, 7, and 9 in treated and untreated PCs to measure the reactivity of PLTs (CD62P and PAC-1), the content and secretion of dense granule after stimulation with different agonists, and the percentage of COAT PLTs after dual stimulation with convulxin (agonist of the collagen receptor GPVI) and THR.RESULTS:
Preparation of PCs resulted in a significant decrease of COAT PLTs and in an impaired response to adenosine 5'-diphosphate sodium (ADP). Storage further decreased ADP response. Minor differences were observed between untreated or amotosalen-UVA-treated PCs.CONCLUSION:
Preparation of PCs from buffy coats decreased the ability to generate COAT PLTs and impaired PLT response to ADP.
