HIV-1 Tat protein has been shown to induce chemotaxis and recruitment of monocytes. In the present study, we evaluated whether HIV-1 Tat protein was able to induce the synthesis of platelet-activating factor (PAF), which is a potent mediator of cell motility, and whether the synthesis of PAF was ins
## Abstract Trimethyltin (TMT) is a neurotoxicant known to induce early microglial activation. The present study was undertaken to investigate the role played by these microglial cells in the TMTβinduced neurotoxicity. The effects of TMT were investigated in monolayer cultures of isolated microglia
Excessive nitric oxide (NO) generated by hepatic cells in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and inflammatory substances (e.g., platelet-activating factor [PAF]) is a key contributor to the pathophysiological outcomes observed in the liver during sepsis. In rats subjected to liver-focused endotoxe
