Re-Assessing the Role of Platelet Activating Factor and Its Inflammatory Signaling and Inhibitors in Cancer and Anti-Cancer Strategies

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Since 2000s, we have outlined the multifaceted role of inflammation in several aspects of cancer, via specific inflammatory mediators, including the platelet activating factor (PAF) and PAF-receptor (PAFR) related signaling, which affect important ...

RESEARCH OF THE THROUGHPUT FOR SHDSL EFM SYSTEMS IN PAIRS AGGREGATION MODE

Information and Telecommunication Sciences, 2019
Background. In modern access networks based on copper cable, EFM is widely used. This technology, using the PAF function, allows you to unevenly distribute data stream between pairs of cables depending on their quality.

Coexpression of GMP-140 and PAF by endothelium stimulated by histamine or thrombin: a juxtacrine system for adhesion and activation of neutrophils

Journal of Cell Biology, 1991
The adhesion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) to vascular endothelial cells (EC) is an early and fundamental event in acute inflammation. This process requires the regulated expression of molecules on both the EC and PMN.

A RARE CASE OF AIRWAY FOREIGN BODY (CEMENT & SAND)

Pakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal, 2005
INTRODUCTION An object is considered a "foreign body" (FB) if the object is in a location in the body where it is not normally found. Common foreign bodies found in children include coins, small toys, foods (like peas, beans, nuts, or even candy ...

Molecular basis for the activation of PAF receptor by PAF

Cell Reports
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a potent phospholipid mediator crucial in multiple inflammatory and immune responses through binding and activating the PAF receptor (PAFR). However, drug development targeting the PAFR has been limited, partly due to an incomplete understanding of its activation mechanism.

Fish polar lipids retard atherosclerosis in rabbits by down-regulating PAF biosynthesis and up-regulating PAF catabolism

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2011
BackgroundPlatelet activating factor (PAF) has been proposed as a key factor and initial trigger in atherosclerosis. Recently, a modulation of PAF metabolism by bioactive food constituents has been suggested.
