Identification of platelet activating factor isolated from rabbit basophils as acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Platelet activating factor obtained from antigen-stimulated rabbit buffy coat leukocytes containing 10% IgE-sensitized basophils was shown by gas-liquid chromatographic and mass spectrometric analysis of products after acetolysis and by base and acid hydrolysis to be acetyl-alkylglyceryl phosphorylcholine. The alkyl side chains were composed of octadecyl (greater than 90%) and hexadecyl (less than 10%) residues.

Acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine (AGEPC). A putative mediator of cardiac anaphylaxis in the guinea pig.
Platelet-activating factor is a novel phospholipid that has been implicated as an important mediator of acute allergic reactions. The intravenous administration of acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine, a pure, synthetic platelet-activating factor, causes electrocardiographic changes in the rabbit similar to those which are characteristic manifestations of systemic anaphylaxis. To determine w...
متن کاملHuman platelet stimulation by acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine.
Acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine (AGEPC) induced dose-dependent platelet aggregation and release of [3H]serotonin and platelet factor 4 in citrated human platelet-rich plasma. ADP scavengers or indomethacin prevented irreversible platelet aggregation responses induced by 0.2 microM AGEPC but had no effect upon platelet secretion; prostacyclin inhibited AGEPC-induced aggregation and secre...

Macrophages, neutrophils, and platelets may play a role in acute edematous lung injury, such as that seen in the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), but their potential actions and interactions are unclear. Because stimulated human macrophages and neutrophils can release acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine (AGEPC), a potent platelet activator, we hypothesized that in ARDS, leukocyte...

A series of phosphoglycerides containing the same structural unit, 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol, was prepared with the following polar head groups: -3-phosphoric acid (AGEPA), -3-phosphorylethanol (AGEPEt), -3-phosphorylethanolamine (AGEPE), -3-phosphoryl-N-monomethylethanolamine (AGEPMME), -3-phosphoryl-N,N-dimethylethanolamine (AGEPDME), and -3-phosphorylcholine (AGEPC). These compounds wer...

The role of an endogenously occurring acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine (AGEPC) in blood pressure regulation was studied with an AGEPC antagonist in rats with hypertension of various etiologies. The hypotensive activity of an intravenously injected AGEPC was competitively suppressed by the intravenous infusion of 3-(N-n-octadecylcarbamoyloxy)-2-methoxypropyl-2-thiazolioethylphospha te (CV...
