Lipids play vital roles in platelet structure, signaling, and metabolism. In addition to capturing exogenous lipids, platelets possess the capacity for de novo lipogenesis, regulated by acetyl-coA carboxylase 1 (ACC1). This review aims to cover the critical roles of platelet de novo lipogenesis and lipidome in platelet production, function, and diseases. Upon platelet activation, approximately 20% of the platelet lipidome undergoes significant modifications, primarily affecting arachidonic acid-containing species. Multiple studies emphasize the impact of de novo lipogenesis, with ACC1 as key player, on platelet functions. Mouse models suggest the importance of the AMPK-ACC1 axis in regulating platelet membrane arachidonic acid content, associated with TXA2 secretion, and thrombus formation. In human platelets, ACC1 inhibition leads to reduced platelet reactivity. Remodeling of the platelet lipidome, alongside with de novo lipogenesis, is also crucial for platelet biogenesis. Disruptions in the platelet lipidome are observed in various pathological conditions, including cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, with associations between these alterations and shifts in platelet reactivity highlighted. The platelet lipidome, partially regulated by ACC-driven de novo lipogenesis, is indispensable for platelet production and function. It is implicated in various pathological conditions involving platelets.
