Results are given as the area under the curve (AUC), using mean ± standard deviation (n = 6). #; p < 0.05 analyzed using a paired Student’s t-test between the samples with and without E. coli, *; p < 0.05 analyzed using one-way ANOVA repeated measurements, Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test, comparing E. coli-activated samples with and without inhibitors.

To the samples were added phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) control or purified C3a in increasing concentrations (200 nM and 400 nM) (n = 5) (A). To the samples were added PBS control or C3aRA in increasing concentrations (10 nM, 100 nM and 1000 nM) (n = 4) (B).

To all samples, PBS or E. coli were added as activators.

Figure Legend Snippet: FIGURE 3 The C3b opsonization of platelets and Escherichia coli (E. coli 1 x 109/mL) were measured by flow cytometry after performing the human whole blood model. E. coli was labeled with Alexa Fluor 633, platelets were detected by BV605-labeled anti-CD61-antibody, leukocytes by V450- labeled anti-CD45-antibody, and C3b opsonization was measured using a FITC-labeled anti-C3c-antibody. The blood was incubated at 37 °C for 10 minutes after adding phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) control, compstatin (Cp40, 20 µM) or control peptide (20 µM), and PBS or E. coli as activators. The population of all platelets, both platelets alone and in conjugation with E. coli, was gated in an aCD45-aCD61 plot (A). The Alexa 633-aCD61 plot was used to separate the platelets alone (red) and the platelets in conjugation with E. coli (blue) (B). Histogram showing the C3b opsonization of platelet-E. coli conjugates; the sample without inhibition in blue, the sample with compstatin in gray (C). Histogram showing the C3b opsonization of the platelets alone; the sample without inhibition in red and the sample added compstatin in gray (D). The plots (A-D) were from one of the six donors and were representative of the other donors which showed the same pattern. E. coli-induced C3b opsonization is shown in a dot plot diagram (E), with data for platelets alone (closed circles) and data for platelets together with E. coli (open circles) (n = 6). Results are given in mean fluorescence (MFI) for C3c, the mean is reported as lines in the figure. *; p < 0.05 analyzed using one- way ANOVA repeated measurements, and Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test, comparing E. coli-activated samples with and without inhibitors or control. A confocal super-resolution image of platelets interacting with C3b opsonized E. coli in whole blood (F). Platelets were detected with a BV605-labeled anti-CD61 antibody (red), and C3b was detected with a FITC-labeled anti-C3c antibody (green).

Figure Legend Snippet: FIGURE 5 Platelet aggregation with isolated platelets in Tyrode’s buffer was measured by Multiplate® impedance aggregometry. The platelets were isolated by centrifugation and washed using Tyrode’s buffer. The samples were added phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or Escherichia coli (E. coli) in PBS in increasing concentrations as indicated; 1 x 107/mL, 1 x 108/mL, 1 x 109/mL, and 1 x 1010/mL, n = 3 (A). *; p < 0.05 analyzed using one-way repeated measurements ANOVA, and Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test, comparing samples with increasing E. coli concentrations to the lowest E. coli concentration (1 x 107/mL). The effect of C3b on aggregation of isolated platelets were analyzed (B). To the samples were either added PBS, C3b (20 nM), compstatin (Cp40, 20 µM) or a combination of them. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was added as a positive control. The results are given as the area under the curve (AUC), using mean ± standard deviation (n = 5). *; p < 0.05 analyzed using one-way ANOVA repeated measurements, and Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test, comparing the PBS control to the other samples.
