Abstract
Gender differences in the proteome composition of apheresis platelet supernatants have always been postulated, and might underlie a higher risk of adverse reactions when transfusing apheresis products from female donors. Preliminary proteomic studies provided an overview of gender-dependent relative compositional differences in the proteome of apheresis platelet supernatants during routine storage in the blood bank. Here we apply a proteomics approach for absolute quantitation of approximately 100 proteins in apheresis platelet supernatants from male and female donors at storage days 1 and 5. Absolute quantitative proteomic analyses allowed us to confirm and expand on previous observations about gender and storage-dependency of platelet supernatant protein profiles.
