Cholera toxin (CT)-induced intestinal secretion and Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO) elongation involves cyclic adenosine monophosphate and protein synthesis-dependent prostaglandin formation. We previously reported inhibition of CT-induced intestinal secretion and CHO elongation by platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonists and secretion

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a lipid-derived mediator that has been implicated in the pathophysiology of airway inflammation in asthma. Its actions include chemotaxis and activation of inflammatory cells, particularly eosinophils. Inhaled PAF causes bronchoconstriction and increased airway responsiveness in human

SR 27417, a potent PAF receptor antagonist, inhibited in a dose-dependent manner the hypotensive effect of PAF in rats. It protected rats with an ED50 value of 6 +/- 2 micrograms/kg (n = 6), when given i.v., 1 min before

To determine if platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a key mediator of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced myocardial depression in guinea pigs. Hartley guinea pigs of either sex received intraperitoneal (IP) injections of either vehicle (n = 45) or one of three chemically dissimilar
The pharmacological profile of a novel specific platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonist-yangambin-isolated from the Brazilian plant Ocotea duckei Vattimo (Lauraceae), was investigated in the pentobarbitone-anaesthetized rabbit. The i.v. administration of PAF (0.03-3.0 microgram kg-1) induced marked but reversible hypotensive effects
