AIM: To investigate the mechanism (s) involved in the synergistic interaction of platelet activating factor (PAF) and epinephrine. METHODS: Blood was obtained from healthy human subjects reported to be free of medications for at least two weeks before sampling. Aggregation was monitored at 37℃ using Dual-channel Lumi-aggregometer.The resulting aggregation was recorded for 5 min by the measurement of light transmission as a function of time.RESULTS: Platelet aggregation mediated by subthreshold concentrations of PAF (5-8 nmol/L) plus epinephrine(0.5-2 μmol/L) was inhibited by α_2-receptor blocker, yohimbine, and PAF receptor antagonist WEB 2086. This synergism was inhibited by calcium channel blockers, verapamil and diltiazem. In addition, platelet aggregation by co-addition of PAF and epinephrine was also inhibited by very low concentrations of phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor (U73122; IC_(50)=0.2 μmol/L), the MAP kinase inhibitor, PD 98059 (IC_(50)=3 μmol/L), and cyclooxygenase(COX-1) inhibitors in
