Storage of platelets (PLTs) results in a progressive defect termed PLT storage lesion (PSL). The PSL is characterized by poor PLT quality on a variety of assays. Metabolic defects are thought to underlie the PSL; thus this study was designed to quantitatively probe specific metabolic pathways over PLT storage. Relative incorporation of stable isotope-labeled substrates was quantified by isotopologue analysis of key acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) thioester products for fresh, viable (after collection, Days 2-5), and expired PLTs (after Day 5). We examined the incorporation of acetate, glucose, and palmitate into acetyl- and succinyl-CoA via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Storage-related defects in the incorporation of acetyl-CoA derived from acetate and palmitate were observed. Carbon derived from palmitate and acetate in succinyl-CoA was reduced over storage time. Glucose incorporation into succinyl-CoA increased in viable PLTs and then decreased in expired PLTs. Carbon derived from octanoate and pyruvate remained partially able to incorporate into acetyl- and succinyl-CoA in expired PLTs, with high variability in pyruvate incorporation. Isotopologue analysis is useful in probing substrate specific defects in the PSL.
