title: 1-O-alkyl-2-O-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines: influence on aggregation and [3H]serotonin release of human thrombocytes.
abstract: 1-O-Alkyl-2-O-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines (platelet activating factor, PAF) aggregate human thrombocytes in a concentration dependent fashion. After a short lag-phase, maximum aggregation is reached within 2 min. PAF releases serotonin from human thrombocytes within 1 min. Indomethacin and creatine phosphate (CP)/creatine phosphokinase (CPK) are able to inhibit the second phase of the aggregation by PAF, while xylocain reduces both the first and second phase of aggregation of human thrombocytes. Hirudine neither influences the first nor the second phase of aggregation by PAF.
