    PAF-acether (Platelet Activating Factor)

    When basophils, which were derived from sensitized rabbits, were challenged with a specific allergen a substance was extracted which was capable of aggregating rabbit platelets [3]. Since its initial detection...

    Release of PAF-acether from human blood monocytes

    Stimulation of human blood monocytes with ionophore A 23187 induced the release of platelet-activating factor (PAF-acether). Phagocytosis of zymosan, coated or not with complement, bacteria or immune complexes...

    Bronchoconstriction induced by intratracheal administration of platelet-activating factor (PAF-acether) in baboons

    Intratracheal administration of PAF-acether (60 μg.kg−1) was performed in six premedicated, curarized and mechanically ventilated baboons. Whereas intratracheal administration of an equal amount of solvent (200μl...
