Platelet Factor 3 Activity in Washed Platelets [PDF]

open access: possibleThrombosis 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 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 and the kidney

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 1986
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) represents a group of phospholipids with the basic structure of 1-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. A number of different cells are capable of producing PAF in response to various stimuli. The initial step of PAF formation is activation of phospholipase A2 in a calcium-dependent manner, yielding lyso-PAF ...

Platelet-Activating Factor

2000
Research leading to the discovery of platelet-activating factor (PAF) came from studying a reaction that triggered platelets to release histamine. It was attributed to a factor actively released from leukocytes. Platelet-activating factor was first identified by Benveniste et al. in 1972.1 Later it was recognized that this phospholipid mediator is also

Platelet-Activating Factor Antagonists

Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 1987
Over the past decade platelet-activating factor has achieved the status of an important inflammatory mediator. The scientific enthusiasm and number of research investigators, publications, and meetings recently devoted to PAF suggest that this mediator will be the subject of continued study in the foreseeable future.

Association of platelet-activating factor with primary acquired cold urticaria.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1985
We investigated the possibility that the inflammatory reaction in primary acquired cold urticaria might be associated with the release of platelet-activating factor.

Platelet activating factor

Revue Française d'Allergologie et d'Immunologie Clinique, 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.

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.
