الوصف: Synthesis of platelet-activating factor (PAF) was stimulated by the treatment of cells with the calcium ionophore A23187 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The amount of PAF production increased A23187-concentration- and time-dependently. The maximum PAF synthesis was observed when the yeast cells were treated with 2 μm of A23187 for 5 min, and the PAF amount decreased at the higher concentrations of A23187 and/or for the longer incubation time. Treatment of the cells with 1 mm of PMSF (phenylmethyl-sulfonyl fluoride), an inhibitor of PAF catabolism, resulted in transient accumulation of PAF; however, at more than 2 mm of PMSF, PAF production was reduced. Synthesized PAF was not released into the extracellular fraction and was found to be cell-associated. In the absence of A23187 or CaCl2, and in the presence of EGTA, a Ca2+-chelator, no new synthesis of PAF was observed. These results suggested A23187-induced PAF production was Ca2+ dependent, and proceed via PAF remodeling pathway. PAF synthesis in response t...
