During platelet storage, there are extensive changes in cytoskeleton and phosphatidylserine exposure. The intrinsic mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis, activated in stored platelets, is a major mediator these changes. Cofilin‐1 is an effector of actin reorganization. We examined the effect of cofilin‐1 deficiency on cytoskeleton and phosphatidylserine exposure during storage and following activation of apoptosis.
