- Abstract
The pro- and anti-inflammatory activity of new structural analogues of the platelet-activating factor (PAF) was studied. It was found that three PAF analogues inhibit PAF-induced rat paw edema in a dose-dependent manner. The anti-inflammatory activity of one of the PAF analogues upon PAF- or carrageenan-induced inflammation was comparable or in some extent exceeded that of dexamethasone.
