Sphingosine 0-11 LOC100009319 Oryctolagus cuniculus 65-80 1540140-1 1992 Sphingosine (a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C) at 5-10 microM, which are concentrations lower than those that inhibit this enzyme activity, enhanced the aggregation of rabbit platelets induced by low concentrations of U46619, platelet-activating factor, thrombin and arachidonic acid, whereas H-7 and staurosporine, other protein kinase C inhibitors, failed to do so. Sphingosine 0-11 prothrombin Oryctolagus cuniculus 260-268 1540140-4 1992 Furthermore, the hydrolytic action of exogenously added phospholipase C (from Clostridium perfringens) on platelet membrane phospholipids was dose-dependently enhanced by pretreatment of the platelets with sphingosine. Phospholipids 124-137 LOC100009319 Oryctolagus cuniculus 56-71 1540140-4 1992 Furthermore, the hydrolytic action of exogenously added phospholipase C (from Clostridium perfringens) on platelet membrane phospholipids was dose-dependently enhanced by pretreatment of the platelets with sphingosine. Sphingosine 206-217 LOC100009319 Oryctolagus cuniculus 56-71 1540140-5 1992 These results imply that sphingosine, at relatively low concentrations, brings about hyperaggregability of the platelets by the agonists employed, probably owing to enhancement of the phospholipase C activity.
