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.

RGS4 inhibits platelet-activating factor receptor phosphorylation and cellular responses

, 2001
To define the role of regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) in chemoattractant-mediated responses, RGS4 and the receptors for platelet-activating factor (PAFR), formylated peptides (FR), or interleukin-8 (CXCR1) were stably coexpressed in a rat ...

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.

Factor V activity of platelets: evidence for an activated factor V molecule and for a platelet activator [PDF]

Blood, 1977
Abstract This study was prompted by the observation that fresh platelet suspensions--prepared by gel filtration or albumin density gradient centrifugation--possessed only minimal factor V activity, whereas frozen-and-thawed platelet suspensions possessed striking factor V activity.

Effects of the Fluid Replacement Method During Online Hemodiafiltration on the Solute Removal Performance and Biocompatibility Using the Asymmetric Cellulose Triacetate Membrane

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.

Levels of thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor and platelet-activating factor in recurrent pregnancy loss patients

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2016
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate factors associated with thrombosis that may contribute to recurrent pregnancy loss (habitual abortion), specifically differences in serum levels of platelet-activating factor and thrombin-activatable ...

Platelet activating factor revisited [PDF]

Thorax, 1997
8A2 and acetyltransferase on membrane alkylacyl phospholipids. PAF was found to possess many properties that made it well suited as a proinflammatory mediator of inflammation in many inflammatory diseases. 1 Interest in Degradation of PAF its potential role as a mediator of asthma was fuelled Being a potent bioactive mediator, it makes sense that PAF ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Class A CpG Oligonucleotide Priming Rescues Mice from Septic Shock via Activation of Platelet-Activating Factor Acetylhydrolase

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Sepsis is a life-threatening, overwhelming immune response to infection with high morbidity and mortality. Inflammatory response and blood clotting are caused by sepsis, which induces serious organ damage and death from shock.
