BACKGROUND: We have previously shown that critically ill children transfused with red blood cells (RBCs) of longer storage durations have more suppressed monocyte function after transfusion compared to children transfused with fresher RBCs and that older stored RBCs directly suppress monocyte function in vitro, through unknown mechanisms. We hypothesized that RBC-derived microvesicles (MVs) were responsible for monocyte suppression. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: To determine the role of stored RBC unit-derived MVs, we cocultured monocytes with supernatants, isolated MVs, or supernatants that had been depleted of MVs from prestorage leukoreduced RBCs that had been stored for either 7 or 30 days. Isolated MVs were characterized by electron microscopy and flow cytometry. Monocyte function after coculture experiments was measured by cytokine production after stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). RESULTS: Monocyte function was suppressed after exposure to supernatants from 30-day RBC units compared to monocytes cultured in medium alone (LPS-induced tumor necrosis factor-a production, 17,611 +/- 3,426 vs. 37,486 +/- 5,598 pg/mL; p=0.02). Monocyte function was not suppressed after exposure to MV fractions. RBC supernatants that had been depleted of MVs remained immunosuppressive. Treating RBC supernatants with heat followed by RNase (to degrade protein-bound RNA) prevented RBC supernatant-induced monocyte suppression. CONCLUSION: Our findings implicate soluble mediators of stored RBC-induced monocyte suppression outside of MV fractions and suggest that extracellular protein-bound RNAs (such as microRNA) may play a role in transfusion-related immunomodulation.
