Arachidonic acid metabolites in the pathophysiology of thrombocytopenia and haemorrhage in acute African swine fever.
    Research in veterinary science, 1987, Volume: 42, Issue:3

    Changes in the production of proaggregatory (thromboxane A2 and prostaglandin E2) and antiaggregatory (prostacyclin) prostaglandins by blood platelets, macrophages and endothelial cells during acute African swine fever caused by both a highly virulent virus and a less virulent virus were studied. No impairment in thromboxane A2 release by either platelets or macrophages could be detected but prostacyclin production by the endothelium was impaired. There was also a significant increase in prostaglandin E2 release by macrophages at the time when thrombocytopenia was most marked. However, the early event that causes primary aggregation remains obscure.
