The platelet proteome in acute ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Washed platelets from 30 individuals experiencing acute STEMI and 25 with severe, stable CAD before CABG surgery underwent proteomic analysis using tandem mass tagged multiplexing. A, Volcano plot highlighting proteins with FDR <0.1 and FC of median value ≥1.5 (orange) or ≥2.0 (red) thresholds. B, Inflammation-related proteins LTF (lactotransferrin), neutrophil DEFA1 (defensin A1), S100A8, and S100A9 were increased in STEMI patients compared with stable CAD (LTF: FC, 1.85; P=2.6×10−6; FDR, 0.006; DEFA: FC, 1.77; P=2.5×10−6; FDR, 0.006; S100A8: FC, 2.00; P=2.2×10−5; FDR, 0.05; S100A9: FC, 2.28; P=2.4×10−6; FDR, 0.005).
