Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is the most potent mitogen for hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in vitro. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the lipid-derived second messenger phosphatidic acid (PA) in mediating this effect and, in particular, to determine its interaction with t
We have shown that platelet-activating factor (PAF), a weak primary stimulus for neutrophil superoxide generation, synergistically enhances neutrophil oxidative responses to the tumor promoter phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Since PMA is known to cause cytosol-to-membrane shift of calcium-activated
