title: Time Dependent Release of Interleukin-8 and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α in Platelet Concentrate.
abstract: Contaminating white blood cells in stored platelet concentrate (PC) are the source of many pro-inflammatory cytokines. These are implicated in transfusion reactions. To study the release of interleukin (IL)-8 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) at different time interval in PC prepared by-platelet rich plasma (PRP) and buffy coat (BC) using different principles. Fifteen PCs were prepared by both the methods. The supernatants of PCs prepared by PRP and BC methods were collected aseptically after 1, 18, 65 and 112 h of preparation. pH, platelet and WBC counts were done. The supernatants were frozen in aliquots at -56 °C for measurement of IL-8 and TNF-α concentration using ELISA. The Mean ± SD value of WBC in PRP-PC was 7.4 ± 3.75 × 10(7) and in BC-PC 3.9 ± 2.2 × 10(7). The mean platelet counts were 6.05 ± 1.94 × 10(10) and 6.54 ± 2.18 × 10(10) respectively. The highest level of IL-8 in one hour was up to 30 pg/ml in both the type of PC. It increased up to 986 pg/ml in PRP-PC and 481 pg/ml in BC-PC at 112 h. IL-8 increased significantly during storage period of 5 days in both types of PCs (P0.000 and P0.01). TNF-α level remained low up to 18 h. The highest level was 72 pg/ml in PRP-PC and 57 pg/ml in BC-PC at 65 h. IL-8 levels significantly increased after one hour of storage and TNF-α. levels were low up to 18 h and then showed increase. The BC-PC had significantly low levels of IL-8 compared to PRP-PC (P0.0001).
