LTC4 synthesis by human basophils has been studied quite extensively. However, not much is known about the synthesis of PAF by human basophils.Objective In this study, we have made a comprehensive comparison between the kinetics of PAF and LTC4 synthesis, in highly purified basophils, activated with different stimuli or with combinations of stimuli.Methods Synthesis of PAF and LTC4 by human basophils was determined with commercially available assay kits. The basophils were activated with C5a, fMLP, PMA, allergen or anti-IgE, in the absence and presence of IL-3 and/or in combination with elevation of cytosolic free Ca2+ by the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin.Results Most stimuli were found to induce both PAF and LTC4 synthesis. PAF synthesis and LTC4 release were enhanced by preincubation of the basophils with IL-3 or by elevation of cytosolic free Ca2+ by thapsigargin. Incubation of human basophils with IL-3 alone or thapsigargin alone did not result in detectable synthesis of PAF and LTC4, whereas the combination of the two resulted in high amounts of PAF and LTC4 synthesis. Depending on the stimulus used, LTC4 release was 5–100-fold higher than PAF synthesis. In addition, PAF, but not LTC4, was transiently detected, probably due to PAF degradation.LTC4 and PAF synthesis was strongly blocked by inhibitors of cytosolic phospholipase A2, indicating that this enzyme is involved in PAF and LTC4 synthesis by activated human basophils.Conclusion This study provides a first comprehensive comparison of PAF and LTC4 synthesis in highly purified human basophils, stimulated with a variety of stimuli.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Upon treatment with pulsed methylprednisolone, the pericardial and pleural effusions and ascites rapidly disappeared within 48 h. This is the first case reported with a polyserositis syndrome and impending cardiac tamponade during KD.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
