Two topics

• Introduce a revised model of normal hemorrhage control that incorporates RBC contributions to thrombin generation and a proposed role for meizothrombin — a relatively anticoagulant form of thrombin

• Variability in the support of thrombin generation by transfusion products: studies characterizing thrombin generation by PRBCs

α-Thrombin vs. meizothrombin

Structure/Function:

α-thrombin vs meizothrombin

• Meizothrombin is less procoagulant than

α-thrombin

• PC activation: mIIa-Tm ≥ αIIa-Tm

• Meizothrombin binds to membrane surfaces, α-thrombin does not

• Meizothrombin reacts more slowly with AT and heparin-AT complexes – longer functional half-life

Thrombin dynamics:

When is meizothrombin produced and how can it contribute to hemostasis?

Topic 2

• Characterize variability between transfusion units with respect to their support of thrombin generation

Variation in thrombin generation

• Global assays of thrombin generation display significant variation among healthy individuals

• Some healthy individuals have thrombin generation phenotypes similar to those with hemorrhagic disorders

Variation and consequences

• Sources of variation

• Normal range variation in plasma coagulation factor composition

• Platelet subpopulations

• Red blood cells?

• Consequences

• Variability between transfusion units

Packed RBCs: Inter-unit variability, aging, thrombin dynamics

• Define the variability in the capacity of

RBCs from different donors to support prothrombinase (Drs. Klein and West,

Dept. of Transfusion Medicine NIH)

– prior to storage

– across the storage interval

• Study outdated PRBCs—develop informative markers

Packed RBCs

• Performance criteria—42 days storage

– Less than 1% cell death

– 75% survival of transfused RBCs after 24h

Changes in PRBCs during storage

• Shape change: discoid to spherical with projection

• Membrane uptake of plasticizer (DEHP) used in collection bags

– stabilizes membrane, reduces cell death

• Loss of membrane lipids/proteins

• Alterations in structural proteins

• Dysregulation of Na + /K + homeostasis

• Depletion of 2,3 diphosphoglycerate

– results in increased hemoglobin oxygen affinity and decreased tissue oxygenation

• Acidification due to glycolysis

– lactic acid accumulation
