Novel molecular analogues of phosphatidylcholines in a lipid extract from bovine brain: 1-long-chain acyl-2-short-chain acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
A vasodepressor phospholipid fraction named Depressor-IA from a bovine brain lipid extract was analyzed by capillary gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry as tert-butyldimethylsilyl derivatives after hydrolysis with phospholipase C.

Production of platelet-activating factor in slugs.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
The land slug, Incilaria bilineata, was shown to contain a large amount of 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl (long chain)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, which accounts for as much as 47% of the choline glycerophospholipid fraction. Since this unique either phospholipid has

Interplay Between EGFR and the Platelet-Activating Factor/PAF Receptor Signaling Axis Mediates Aggressive Behavior of Cervical Cancer

Frontiers in Oncology, 2020
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a receptor tyrosine kinase widely expressed in cervical tumors, being correlated with adverse clinical outcomes. EGFR may be activated by a diversity of mechanisms, including transactivation by G-protein coupled

Activation and desensitization of platelets by platelet-activating factor (PAF) derived from IgE-sensitized basophils. I. Characteristics of the secretory response

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1976
The secretion of vasoactive amines from rabbit platelets induced by the platelet-activating factor (PAF) derived from IgE-sensitized rabbit basophils, was examined.

Design, Synthesis and Anti-Platelet Aggregation Activity Study of Ginkgolide-1,2,3-triazole Derivatives

Molecules, 2019
Ginkgolides are the major active component of Ginkgo biloba for inhibition of platelet activating factor receptor. An azide-alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition reaction was used to introduce a triazole nucleus into the target ginkgolide molecules.

Platelet-Activating Factor Induces Th17 Cell Differentiation

Mediators of Inflammation, 2011
Th17 cells have been implicated in a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The phospholipid mediator platelet-activating factor (PAF) is found in increased concentrations in inflammatory lesions and has been shown to induce IL-6 production.

Fenofibrate induces HDL-associated PAF-AH but attenuates enzyme activity associated with apoB-containing lipoproteins

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
Human plasma platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) is an enzyme associated mainly with the apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins and primarily with LDL. A small proportion of enzymatic activity is also associated with HDL.

Physicochemical and functional identity of rabbit platelet-activating factor (PAF) released in vivo during IgE anaphylaxis with PAF released in vitro from IgE sensitized basophils.

Journal of Immunology, 1979
Platelet activating factor (PAF) released in vivo into the plasmas of rabbits during development of IgE-induced systemic anaphylactic shock had indistinguishable physicochemical and functional properties when compared with PAF released in vitro from ...
