01
Overview
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) degradation is the process by which PAF, a potent bioactive phospholipid mediator, is enzymatically broken down to regulate its activity in inflammation, thrombosis, and immune responses. The primary pathway involves PAF acetylhydrolases (PAF-AH), which remove the acetyl group from PAF, rendering it inactive. This process is crucial for preventing excessive or prolonged PAF signaling and maintaining homeostasis.
