Abstract

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) has a major role in inflammatory responses within the lung. This study investigates the effect of pulmonary surfactant on the synthesis of PAF in human monocytic cells. The pulmonary surfactant preparation Curosurf® significantly inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated PAF biosynthesis (P
