Red‐blood‐cell manufacturing methods and storage solutions differentially induce pulmonary cell activation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Red-blood-cell (RBC) transfusion is associated with lung injury, which is further exacerbated by mechanical ventilation. Manufacturing methods of blood products differ globally and may play a role in the induction of pulmonary cell activation through alteration of the immunomodulatory property of the products. Here, the effect of different manufacturing methods on pulmonary cell activation was investigated in an in vitro model of mechanical ventilation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Pulmonary type II cells were incubated with supernatant from fresh and old RBC products obtained via whole blood filtration (WBF), red cell filtration (RCF), apheresis-derived (AD) or whole blood-derived (WBD) methods. Lung cells were subjected to 25% stretch for 24 h. Controls were non-stretched or non-incubated cells. RESULTS: Fresh but not old AD products and WBF products induce lung cell production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, which was not observed with WBD or RCF products. Effects were associated with an increased amount of platelet-derived vesicles and an increased thrombin-generating capacity. Mechanical stretching of lung cells induced more severe cell injury compared to un-stretched controls, including alterations in the cytoskeleton, which was further augmented by incubation with AD products. In all read-out parameters, RCF products seemed to induce less injury compared to the other products. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show that manufacturing methods of RBC products impact pulmonary cell activation, which may be mediated by the generation of vesicles in the product. We suggest RBC manufacturing method may be an important factor in understanding the association between RBC transfusion and lung injury.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
