Figure 6. Activity of C16:0-PAF and different T. cruzi LPC species on the aggregation of rabbit platelets.

Figure 6

Platelet aggregation assays were performed as described in Materials and Methods, using synthetic 16:0-PAF and C16:0-, C18:0-, C18:1-LPC, and purified C18:2-LPC. Control platelets or platelets pre-treated for 30 min with 10 µM WEB 2086 were assayed in the absence or presence of 1 µM C16:0-PAF or the LPC species at 10 µM (C16:0-LPC, C18:0-LPC, C18:1-LPC, and C18:2-LPC) and 100 µM (C18:1-LPC). Each lipid was tested in duplicate as indicated by black and blue curves in each graph.
