Research Abstract |
The present study was aimed to clarify the role of platelet activating factor (PAF) in bone metabolism. The findings were as follows. 1. Compared with PGE2, PAF did not seem to have a potent bone resorbing activity. 2. PAF inhibited calcification in an osteoblast-like cell, MC3T3-E1 in vitro. 3. PAF did not affect an endogeneous PGE2 diosynthesis by MC3T3-E1. 4. PAF did not increase an intra-cellular calcium ion concentration of MC3T3-E1. 5. MC3T3-E1 did not produce PAF with the stimulation of a calcium ionophore, A23187, but metabolised 90% of exogeneous PAF to lyso-PAF and acyl GPC within a hour.
