We investigated the effect of platelet-activating factor (PAF) and of the PAF specific antagonist CV-6209 on plasma lipid
metabolism, and particularly on post-heparin plasma lipolytic activity in male Wistar rats. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity
was enhanced by intravenous injection of PAF before intravenous injection of heparin when the PAF dose was low (0.2 μg/kg).
PAF activated hepatic triacylglycerol lipase (HTGL) activity dose-dependently. Plasma triacylglycerols (TG) significantly
decreased with the activation of LPL and/or HTGL. Plasma total cholesterol (TC) and phospholipid (PL) levels decreased at
a low dose of PAF (0.2 μg/kg), but increased when higher doses were used. The PAF antagonist CV-6209 partially reversed the
PAF induced effects on HTGL, TC and PL.

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a potent phospholipid mediator with diversein vivo andin vitro coronary vascular effects. In the present study, the coronary vascular responses to bolus injections of PAF were compared
in rat hearts perfused under constant flow and under constant pressure. Low levels of PAF (1 pmol) produced vasodilatation
only, while higher PAF concentrations (100 pmol) produced initial vasodilatation which was followed by a vasoconstriction
under both experimental conditions. To determine species differences in PAF action, the effect of PAF was tested on perfused
guinea pig hearts. Unlike in perfused rat hearts, only a dosedependent vasoconstrictor response was observed in perfused guinea
pig hearts following a bolus injection of 1 fmol to 10 pmol of PAF. The results from repeated injections of PAf indicated
that depletion of vasoactive mediators induced by PAF or receptor desensitization may explain a failure of a second injection
of PAF to initiate a vasoconstrictor response. After PAF injection, the coronary vascular response to leukotriene was not
altered, indicating that the reduced vasoconstrictor effect of a second injection of PAF cannot be due to a reduced ability
of the smooth muscle to constrict. The study demon-strates that similar coronary vascular responses to PAF are observed in
perfused rat hearts under either constant flow rate or constant pressure and that some of the variable coronary vascular responses
reported may be due to the difference between animal species. 相似文献

High performance liquid chromatography in combination with a radioactivity detector was used to study the metabolism of platelet-activating factor (1-0-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) by washed platelets, platelet-free plasma and platelet-rich plasma obtained from rabbits and humans. Degradation of platelet-activating factor in plasma was completely inhibited by diisopropylfluorophosphate and was partially inhibited by ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid. Washed platelets metabolized platelet-activating factor not only to the 2-lyso compound but also, by reacylation of this lyso intermediate, to an analogue of platelet-activating factor probably containing a long-chain acyl group at thesn-2 position. These transformations occurred, but to a lesser extent, in platelet-rich plasma. 相似文献

Cisplatin (DDP) is an effective anticancer agent that has been successfully applied against various solid tumors. However,
DDP commonly causes nephrotoxicity. We observed that DDP led to significant alterations in renal microcirculation when administered
to Munich-Wistar rats, with a concomitant decrease in single nephron glomerular filtration rate due to reduction in glomerular
plasma flow and transcapillary hydraulic pressure difference. BN 52063, a platelet-activating factor antagonist, caused a
striking change in acute renal failure induced by DDP leading toward normalization of all parameters of renal function. The
results suggest that BN 52063 could be used as a novel drug to control DDP nephrotoxicity.

Normodense eosinophils and neutrophils from normal donors produced considerable amounts of plateletactivating factor (PAF)
when stimulated with ionophore A23187. PAF produced by eosinophils appeared to be degraded more rapidly than PAF formed by
neutrophils, suggesting a higher activity of PAF-degrading enzyme in eosinophils. Substantial proportions of PAF newly formed
by both eosinophils and neutrophils were shown to be cell-associated. By comparison, hypodense eosinophils obtained from a
patient with idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome produced an extremely large amount of PAF and released much of it into
the incubation medium. The accelerated formation of PAF in hypodense eosinophils may be related to various cardiovascular
complications associated with hypereosinophilic syndrome.

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a low molecular weight phospholipid which enhances human monocyte cytotoxicity for tumor
cells. In the current studies, the capacity of PAF to stimulate release of tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) by human monocytes
was assessed. PAF induced maximal TNFα synthesis 2–3 hr after monocyte stimulation as assessed by dot blotting of cell-associated
TNFα using polyclonal anti-TNF antibody. Maximal net release of TNFα occurred 5–16 hr after monocyte stimulation, as assessed
by a specific ELISA. Dose-response studies revealed that a maximal two- to three-fold increase in release of TNFα occurs at
10–100 pM PAF. LysoPAF and the optical isomer of PAF did not stimulate release of TNFα, suggesting that stimulation is mediated
by specific PAF receptors. Scatchard analysis of [3H]PAF binding to monocyte membranes revealed 651±495 binding sites/monocyte with a Kd of 4.7±4.2×10−10M. PAF is a structurally unique activator of monocytes whose interactions with TNFα and other cytokines may be critical to
host defense against tumors.

Sudden release of platelet-activating factor (PAF) into the circulation can cause hypotension, tachycardia, and circulatory
collapse. To further examine this response, we performed detailed studies of cardiovascular function after PAF administration
to young domestic pigs and newborn piglets. Our results indicate that circulatory dysfunction after PAF reflects severe constriction
of pulmonary resistance vessels and consequent acute right ventricular failure. Although PAF-induced coronary artery constriction
and contractile depression may be complicating problems, left ventricular underperfusion and dysfunction after PAF are mainly
the result of systemic arterial hypotension and diminished left ventricular filling. The adverse hemodynamic effects of PAF
are accompanied by substantial release of thromboxane A2 (TxA2). These effects are mimicked by the TxA2 agonist U-46619 and partially blocked by specific and nonspecific inhibitors of TxA2 synthesis (OKY-046 and indomethacin). Even more potent blockade of PAF action is exerted by the TxA2 receptor blocker, SQ 29,548. Taken together, these findings indicate that severe pulmonary vascular constriction and hemodynamic
collapse soon after intravenous PAF are at least partially mediated by PAF-induced TxA2 release.
Tachyphylaxis to PAF influence has been observed in studies of leukocyte and platelet function. We hypothesized that tachyphylaxis
to PAF might also occur in our studies of constrictor responses in pulmonary vessels. Recently, we have examined the capacity
of PAF to produce sustained pulmonary vasoconstriction in openchested, anesthetized newborn piglets. Infusions sufficient
to produce 100% increase in mean pulmonary artery pressure after 3 min showed no loss of efficacy when sustained for 30 min.
The same was true for infusions of U-46619. Thus, the pulmonary vasoconstrictor influence of PAF or U-46619 is not readily
diminished by tachyphylaxis. These findings favor the viewpoint that PAF or TxA2 release during inflammatory processes could have prolonged adverse actions on pulmonary and systemic circulations.

The effect of protein depletion in the pregnant rat on the polyunsaturated fatty acid incorporation into very low density
lipoproteins (VLDL) has been investigated. The apoprotein pattern of these particles was determined. In in vivo experiments
the amounts of serum and liver triacylglycerol were determined. VLDL were isolated and their apo C concentration calculated.
In in vitro experiments the radioactivity of [3H] leucine incorporated into VLDL apoproteins was measured. The results show that protein depletion during pregnancy promotes
a drastic increase in serum and liver triacylglycerol. The VLDL isolated from these animals show an increase in the triacylglycerol/protein
ratio and a decrease in their content of apo C. Meanwhile, a significant reduction in the [3H]leucine incorporation into apo C peptides by the perfused liver of protein depleted rats was detected. On the other hand,
protein deprivation did not affect labeled linoleic and arachidonic acid incorporation into triacylglycerol of the newly secreted
VLDL. Taking these results together, let us deduce that a defective VLDL is secreted by the liver of the protein depleted
pregnant rats. The abnormal composition of these particles may influence its normal metabolism through their effects on lipoprotein
lipase and this fact could affect the normal supply of polyunsaturated fatty acids to the fetus. 相似文献

1-0-Hexadecyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (platelet-activating factor) at 10−10-10−9 M induced slow contraction of isolated guinea-pig ilcal muscles and the contraction persisted for a long time. At a higher
concentration of 10−7 M, this phospholipid induced more rapid, but not greater, contraction. At higher concentrations (10−6-10−5 M), this phospholipid induced a biphasic response: rapid contraction followed by relaxation. At high concentrations, this
compound inhibited acetylcholine-induced contractions. The stimulatory effect of this phospholipid was ca. 300 times that
of 1-palmitoyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, while its inhibitory potency on induced contraction was similar to those of 1-palmitoyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and its lyso derivative. It was suggested that the differences in effects on contraction of different
concentrations of 1-0-hexadecyl- and 1-palmitoyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine were due to the dual effects of these compounds on the ileum: a strong stimulatory effect and a
moderate inhibitory effect on contraction. 相似文献

Reperfusion of the ischemic mesenterium is frequently followed by acute circulatory collapse. This review focuses on the possible
role of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in ischemia-induced damage. It provides evidence that (i) PAF concentrations are
elevated in the mesenteric circulation following temporary ischemia; (ii) administration of exogenous PAF into the superior
mesenteric vein mimics many events observed during reperfusion; and (iii) pretreatment of the experimental animals with specific
PAF receptor antagonists prevent the circulatory collapse. These findings suggest that PAF may play an important role in the
development of circulatory collapse caused by mesenteric ischemia-reperfusion.

A platelet-activating factor (PAF) analog with a reactive ω-aldehyde group at thesn-1 position was synthesized. The hapten-thyroglobulin conjugate was used to immunize rabbits to produce specific antibodies
to PAF. The purified immunoglobulin G (IgG) fraction was found to bind stereo-specifically to tritiated PAF and to crossreact
minimally with lysoPAF, plasmalogens, and other phospholipids. The radioimmunoassay detected as little as 20 pg of PAF per
assay tube and was used to explore agonist-induced synthesis of PAF in rabbit neutrophils. Calcium ionophore A23187 at 1 μM
induced PAF synthesis peaking at 2 min and reaching basal levels after 5 min.N-Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP) at 0.1 μM also stimulated rapid synthesis and degradation of PAF with a peak at 5 min. Both A23187
and FMLP stimulated PAF synthesis in a dose-dependent manner. The radioimmunoassay should be applicable to the quantitation
of PAF in biological samples.

The relationship between the occurrence of platelet-activating factor (PAF) and neutrophils in urine from patients with urinary
tract infection was examined. PAF was detected in human pyuria, when leukocyte levels reached at least 300 cells/μL (n=45),
but not in normal urine (n=12). The amount of PAF found in pyuria, measured by platelet aggregation assay, was 0.01 to 13.3
pmol/mL. A close correlation was seen between the amount of PAF present and the number of urinary leukocytes (p<0.01, r=0.70).
The leukocytes in pyuria consisted almost entirely of neutrophils (96±4%, mean ±S.D.). Our findings suggest that the occurrence
of PAF is associated with the accumulation of neutrophils in urine.

The role of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in inflammatory reactions was studied in zymosan-induced rat pleurisy. Pleurisy
was induced by injection of a 2% zymosan suspension into the pleural cavity of rats. The time course of pleural exudate accumulation,
the exudation rate, and exudate leukocyte numbers were followed then for 96 hr. Peak pleural exudate accumulation was about
3 mL at 24 hr, whereas the exudation rate increased biphasically with peaks at 0.5 hr and 5 hr. The migration of leukocytes
into the pleural cavity increased with time up to 48 hr. The polymorphonuclear leukocytes were the dominant white cells in
the exudate between 5 and 16 hr, but mononuclear leukocytes started to outnumber them around 24 hr. Pretreatment with cyproheptadine
(5 mg/kg), an inhibitor of both histamine and seotonin, significantly suppressed pleural fluid accumulation and the exudation
rate at 0.5 hr. The PAF antagonist CV-6209 (1 mg/kg) significantly suppressed pleural fluid accumulation and the exudation
rate at both 0.5 and 5 hr. At either time point, the parameters were not suppressed by indomethacin. We detected PAF activity
in the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fraction (with a retention time corresponding to that of authentic PAF)
of the exudates at 0.5 hr, 5 hr, and 16 hr using an aggregation bioassay with washed rabbit platelets. The results suggest
that in zymosan-induced rat pleurisy, histamine and/or serotonin are the main mediators of exudation at 0.5 hr and that PAF
may be partly responsible for exudation at 0.5 hr and later at 5 hr to 16 hr.

In a variety of stimulated cells, platelet-activating factor (PAF) and numerous arachidonate derivatives are coproducts that
form as a consequence of receptor-mediated phospholipid mobilization. These lipid co-products produce a plethora of biological
effects in a wide variety of cell systems. Furthermore, they often have a fascinating, although less widely appreciated, interaction.
5-HETE, at submicromolar concentrations, exerts relatively few direct bioactions. It does, however, potently (16–160 nM) raise
cytosolic free calcium [Ca2+]i and augment PAF-induced responses in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) by as much as 100- to 1000-fold. 5-HETE acts
on PMN by a structurally specific, stereospecific and pertussis toxin-inhibitable mechanism. In addition, PMN exposed to 5-HETE
exhibit homologous but not heterologous desensitization. These findings suggest that 5-HETE, like PAF, may bind to its own
specific plasmalemmal receptors to exert its unique set of bioactions. However, further investigation is required to demonstrate
any putative 5-HETE receptors. Other potential mechanisms of 5-HETE-induced bioactions together with the possible effects
of 5-HETE on PAF transduction mechanisms are also discussed.

Circulating levels of 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (C16PAF) in human subjects were measured by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry using negative ion chemical ionization. The mean
(±S.D.) circulating C16PAF levels in patients with essential hypertension (18.1±5.3 pg/mL, n=16) were not significantly different from those in normotensive
subjects (17.2±7.2 pg/mL, n=14). During a salt balance study, high salt intake (20 g/day) significantly increased the circulating
level of C16PAF, and changes in circulating C16PAF significantly and positively correlated with changes in mean arterial blood pressure (r=0.47, p<0.05). Changes in C16PAF also correlated with changes in creatinine clearance (r=0.55, p<0.05), but did not correlate with changes in plasma sodium
concentration, plasma chloride concentration and plasma volume. An intravenous injection of 50 μg of human atrial natriuretic
peptide (hANP) decreased circulating C16PAF levels from 20.0±2.7 to 13.9±2.4 pg/mL of blood (n=10, p<0.01) in healthy subjects. The data appear to indicate that C16PAF levels are changed by salt intake-induced mild increase in blood pressure, and that hANP may be an endogenous factor which
lowers circulating C16PAF.

In mammalian systems, platelet-activating factor, 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, (PAF) is rapidly inactivated by a deacetylation/reacylation system that produces 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine which is highly enriched in arachidonic acid. There is some evidence that n−3 fatty acids may have
an impact on this system in humans but the nature of this impact is unclear. In rainbow trout, n−3 fatty acids are known to
be essential dietary components which are derived through the food chain. Substantial quantities of n−3 fatty acids are found
in trout membrane phospholipids. We show here that in sharp contrast to mammalian cells, trout cells acylate lyso platelet-activating
factor, alkyl-GPC, 1-O-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, (lyso-PAF) with a high degree of specificity for n−3 fatty acids. When [3H]lysoPAF was incubated with these cells, only three molecular species of alkylacylglycerophosphocholine were produced, and
92% contained n−3 fatty acids. Since isolated membranes yielded similar results, it appears that the acylation proceedsvia a coenzyme A-independent transacylase as found in mammalian systems. 相似文献

Nephrotoxicity of cyclosporine: The role of platelet-activating factor and thromboxane 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Cyclosporine (CsA), an immunosuppressive agent, is potentially nephrotoxic. We had previously observed that acute administration
of CsA to Munich-Wistar rats induced a decrease in single nephron glomerular filtration rate, due to a decline in glomerular
plasma flow, and in the glomerular ultrafiltration coefficient. Moreover, these alterations were prevented when an antagonist
of platelet-activating factor (PAF) was administered. In the present study we examined whether the protective effect of the
PAF blocker in CsA nephrotoxicity could have been mediated by thromboxane (TxA2). Our data show that the PAF effects were not mediated by TxA2, since administration of dazmegrel, a thromboxane synthetase inhibitor, did not ameliorate the acute renal failure caused
by CsA. Thus, PAF appears to be a direct mediator of acute CsA nephrotoxicity, while TxA2 is not significantly involved in this process.

In experiments on dogs,i.v. administration of platelet-activating factor (PAF) (500 ng/kg) was shown to induce hypotension which, apart from decreased
myocardial contractility, was characterized by blood pooling in veins (82.6±6.8 mL/kg). This was accompanied by restriction
of venous return to the heart and reduction of cardiac output (CO). During postischemic shock the cardio- and hemodynamic
disturbances were similar to those induced byi.v. administration of PAF. In the postischemic shock model, preliminary blockage of PAF receptors with the PAF receptor antagonist
BN 52021 (6 mg/kg,i.v.) significantly decreased the amount of blood pooled in shock from 38.7±5 to 18.3±2 mL/kg (p<0.01). Simultaneously, the reduction
of CO and blood pressure, induced by reperfusion of the continuously ischemized tissues of a rear limb, was less significant
in pretreatedvs. the nontreated group. The data suggest that PAF may be involved in postischemic blood pooling and that PAF antagonists could
be used to correct postischemic cardio- and hemodynamic disturbances.

The effect of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in superoxide production by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was studied.
Cypridina luciferin analog (CLA) dependent chemiluminescence was used to detect superoxide anion radicals. PAF induced superoxide
generation in human PMN in a dose-dependent manner. Preincubation with a small amount of PAF (5 x 10−9 M) enhanced PMN superoxide release induced by various stimuli, such as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), opsonized zymosan
(OZ), calcium ionophore (A23187) andN-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP). The PAF antagonist, CV-6209, inhibited superoxide production induced by PAF,
but not that induced by other stimuli. These findings would indicate that PAF may play an important role at inflammatory reaction
sites and that CV-6209 may inhibit excessive inflammatory reaction. 相似文献
