Receptor mechanisms of PAF mediated lymphatic constriction in the canine forelimb

Platelet activating factor (PAF) is a potent inflammatory lipid. In this study we assessed the ability of PAF to impact lymphatic vessel function by altering prenodal lymphatic resistance. Intralymphatic PAF (7.47 × 10−6, 7.47 × 10−5 and 7.47 × 10−4 M) increased lymphatic perfusion pressure at the t...
