Inhibition of transmembrane movement and metabolism of platelet activating factor (PAF-acether) by a specific antagonist, BN 52021.

Abstract:

:Incorporation of 1-[3H]-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine ([3H] PAF-acether) into rabbit platelet phosphatidylcholine (PC) was inhibited by a specific antagonist, BN 52021 (IC50 5.6 X 10(-6) M, maximal effect, i.e 70% inhibition, at 10(-4) M). Under the same conditions, [3H] lyso-PAF-acether incorporation remained 9 fold lower, compared to PAF-acether, without any effect of BN 52021. Upon cell lysis, both phospholipids attained the same rate of metabolic conversion, corresponding to a 1.15-fold and a 12-fold increase for PAF-acether and lyso-PAF-acether, respectively. In none of these cases was BN 52021 effective. It is concluded that transmembrane movement of the two phospholipids represents the limiting step of their metabolism. The higher rate of PAF-acether conversion by intact platelets could involve its binding to a membrane receptor, as suggested by the inhibitory effect of BN 52021, the significance of which is discussed.
