Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Platelet-activating factor-acether (PAF-acether) presence was investigated in 27 human follicular fluids (FFs). DESIGN:Aggregation of washed rabbit platelets was used to measure PAF-acether. Data were compared using Student's t-test. SETTING:Follicular fluids came from the in vitro fertilization program at Antoine Béclère Hospital, and PAF-acether was assayed at Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale, Unités 187 and 200, Clamart, France. PATIENTS, PARTICIPANTS:The study concerned five infertile women 29 to 39 years of age. INTERVENTIONS:Ovaries were stimulated with human menopausal gonadotropin under gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) action. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The height of platelet aggregation was compared between FFs and synthetic PAF-acether. RESULTS:Mean FF concentration of PAF-acether was 1,367 to 3,467 pg/mL among women. Values were higher for patients in a long than in a short GnRH-a protocol (P less than 0.05). However, PAF-acether concentration was not related to fertilization rate. CONCLUSIONS:Platelet-activating factor-acether is possibly involved in oocyte release from the follicle, a process occulted by follicular puncture.
