Radioimmunoassay for platelet‐activating factor

Lipids, 1991
AbstractA radioimmunoassay (RIA) for measurement of platelet‐activating factor (PAF) was developed. At a final antiserum dilution of 1∶640, the lowest detection limit of PAF was 0.1 pmol (50 pg). The standard curve obtained was suitable for measurement of PAF in amounts ranging from 0.1 pmol to 30 pmol. The antiserum showed high specificity.

Platelet-Activating Factor

Hospital Practice, 1983
Our ability to chemically characterize and synthesize this autacoid of allergy and inflammation has given us a unique opportunity to study these important molecules in a highly disciplined fashion. It has also opened the door to a vista of research approaches to define PAF's normal physiologic role as well as its actions as an immunopathologic mediator.

Platelet Activating Factor Receptors

2003
Platelet activating factor (PAF) is a potent pro-inflammatory lipid mediator. Its effects are mediated through cell surface G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that are distributed on numerous cells notably on endothelium [1]. An intracrine mode of action for PAF is proposed based on evidence for intracellular PAF binding sites [2] and retention of ...

Platelet-Activating Factor

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1996
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a proinflammatory lipid. It has been strongly implicated in the regulation of pancreatic exocrine secretion and in the local and systemic events which occur in acute pancreatitis. PAF antagonists, when given as pretreatment, ameliorate the severity of experimental acute pancreatitis by reducing serum amylase ...

Seminal Platelet-Activating Factor

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2007
Platelet-activating factor (PAF; 1-O-alkyl-2-O-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine) is a potent signaling phospholipid with pleiotropic biologic activities. Since its discovery more than 30 years ago, numerous investigators have documented its presence in a variety of tissues.

Platelet Factor 3 Activity in Washed Platelets

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1973
SummaryPlatelets collected with an EDTA solution and simply washed in an incomplete Tyrode’s presented clotting times in the recalcification (man and rat) and the Stypven (rat) tests that were practically identical to those of the PRP when slow speed centrifugation was used (800 G in man, 1000 G in rat). This was demonstrated, in 6 pools of 5 rats each

Platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase

Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2002
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is one of the most potent lipid mediators and is involved in a variety of physiological events. The acetyl group at the sn-2 position of its glycerol backbone is required for its biological activity, and deacetylation of PAF induces loss of activity. The deacetylation reaction is catalyzed by PAF-acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH)

Platelet-Activating Factor and Platelet-Activating Factor Antagonists in Acute Pancreatitis

Digestive Surgery, 1999
<i>Introduction:</i> Acute pancreatitis causes platelet-activating factor (PAF) to be released which induces systemic effects that contribute to circulatory disturbances and multiple organ failure. PAF has also been implicated as a key mediator in the progression of severe acute pancreatitis, which can lead to complications and unacceptably

Platelet-activating factor.

Monographs in allergy, 1977
Resume Il existe dans les basophiles et les mastocytes de nombreuses especes de mammiferes un facteur agregeant les plaquettes qui represente par consequent un lien entre la pathologie liee a la degranulation des basophiles/mastocytes, c'est-a-dire l'hypersensibilite immediate, et les plaquettes sanguines.
