Complement C3 inhibition reduces complement activation in clinical platelet concentrates but does not counteract platelet storage lesions [PDF]

Platelets
Platelet storage is associated with storage lesions, including platelet morphological changes and a gradual functional loss. We investigated the impact of complement C3 inhibition on complement activation and platelet storage lesions in clinical platelet

Platelet concentrates in platelet additive solutions generate less complement activation products during storage than platelets stored in plasma. [PDF]

, 2023
BACKGROUND Platelet transfusions can be associated with adverse reactions, such as febrile non-haemolytic transfusion reaction (FNHTR). It has been suggested that damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMP) and complement play a role in FNHTR.
