Transcellular metabolism of leukotriene A4 by rabbit blood cells: lack of relevant LTC4-synthase activity in rabbit platelets

Journal of Lipid Research, 1997
The objective of this study was to determine the transcellular metabolism of leukotriene A4 by rabbit blood cells. mixed peripheral blood leukocyte preparations with and without platelets in a ratio of 1:40 were challenged with the Ca(2+)-ionophore ...

BLOOD PLATELETS AS ACTIVATORS AND REGULATORS OF INFLAMMATORY AND IMMUNE REACTIONS. PART 1. BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF PLATELETS AS INFLAMMATORY CELLS

Медицинская иммунология, 2018
Platelets are the smallest blood cells, and yet their total volume and surface area exceed those of all types of leukocytes combined. Platelets are produced by the bone marrow megakaryocytes and megakaryocytes in the lung microvessels.
