Microparticles in stored red blood cells as potential mediators of transfusion complications

Abstract: This article reviews evidence for the involvement of cell-derived microparticles (MP) in transfusion-related adverse events. The controversy concerning possible added risk of older vs. fresher stored blood is also reviewed, and is consistent with the hypothesis that MP are involved with adverse events. Although all types of circulating MP are discussed, the emphasis is on red cell-derived MP (RMP). The evidence is particularly strong for involvement of RMP in transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), but … Show more

“…36 Many complement system components and immunoglobulins are enriched in RBC microparticles, which is consistent with a proinflammatory potential. 37 In addition, microparticles express the procoagulant phosphatidylserine and the number of phosphatidylserine-enriched RBC microparticles increases with storage time.…”

“…20,120). MPs have also been directly associated with immunomodulatory effector molecules such as RMP-and PMP-derived CD40L, IgG, and complement found in stored blood products (80). Immunomodulatory and proinflammatory effects of MPs may be particularly relevant in the context of transfusion-related ALI (TRALI), because storage of blood products will propel for- mation of MPs (25,33,144) that will subsequently activate PMNs (80).…”

“…Beyond TF expression, MPs expose large amounts of PS on their outer membranes, thus creating an ideal surface for activation of the coagulation pathway (148). In addition, MPs generate and release other prothrombotic factors including thrombin (80) or vWF multimers that can promote and stabilize platelet aggregation (20). In summary, there is ample evidence from in vitro animal and human studies demonstrating the formation of MPs with procoagulant activity under inflammatory conditions and in ALI in both the vascular and alveolar compartment, where they are likely to contribute pivotally to the hypercoagulable and hypofibrinolytic state characteristic for ALI/ARDS.…”
