| Bioactivity | Butenoyl-PAF is a phospholipid analog of platelet activating factor (PAF-like) that is generated in oxidized low-density lipoprotein (DLDR). Butenoyl-PAF can activate cells that express human PAF receptors, such as neutrophils, monocytes, and platelets, and it stimulates an increase in intracellular calcium ion concentration[1]. |
