  Transverse momentum spectra of protons and anti-protons from RHIC ($\sqrt{s}$
= 62 and 200 GeV) and LHC experiments ($\sqrt{s}$= 0.9 and 7 TeV) have been
considered. The data are fitted in the low $p_T$ region with the universal
formula that includes the value of exponent slope as a main parameter. It is
seen that the slope of low-$p_T$ distributions is changing with energy. This
effect impacts on the energy dependence of average transverse momenta, which
behaves approximately as $s^{0.06}$ that is similar to the previously observed
behavior for $\Lambda^0$-baryon spectra. In addition, the available data on
$\Lambda_c$ production from LHCb at $\sqrt{s}= 7$ TeV were also studied. The
estimated average $<p_T>$ is bigger than this value for protons proportionally
to masses. The preliminary dependence of hadron average transverse momenta on
their masses at LHC energy is presented.
