The production of osteoclast-activating factor (OAF) by normal human peripheral blood leukocytes stimulated by phytohemagglutinin was inhibited by a series of structurally unrelated inhibitors of prostaglandin synthetase. Inhibition of OAF production by these agents was reversed by adding prostaglandins of the E series back to the leukocyte suspension. These results indicate that prostaglandin synthesis is necessary for OAF production.
由植物血凝素刺激的正常人外周血白细胞产生破骨细胞激活因子(OAF)的过程,受到一系列结构不相关的前列腺素合成酶抑制剂的抑制。通过将E系列前列腺素重新添加到白细胞悬液中,这些试剂对OAF产生的抑制作用得以逆转。这些结果表明,前列腺素合成对于OAF的产生是必需的。
