Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
Receptor for platelet activating factor, a chemotactic phospholipid mediator that possesses potent inflammatory, smooth-muscle contractile and hypotensive activity. Seems to mediate its action via a G protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.
Gene References into Functions
  1. In hypoxic tissue, PAFR protein expression is up-regulated, but is reduced in the bilobalide treated tissue. PMID:21391918
  2. These data show the histological localization of PAF synthases and its receptor in the spinal cord following peripheral nerve injury. PMID:22296727
  3. PAF inhibition interkinetic nuclear migration (IKNM) in retinal proliferating progenitors depended on the PAF receptor, Erk and p38 pathways and Chk1 PMID:21298035
  4. differential activation of both G(i) and G(q) by PAFR likely mediate specific as well as redundant signaling pathways PMID:16920964
  5. PAF receptor gene expression may be subject to down-regulation in the perifocal regions of cerebral infarction after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. PMID:17268849
  6. Platelet activating factor receptor (PAF-R) plays an important role in occurrence and development of severe acute pancreatitis. BN52021 exerts biological effects through competitively inhibiting the binding of increased both PAF and PAF-R expression. PMID:17589953
  7. Cirrhosis sensitizes hepatic stellate cells to PAF by elevating its receptor level PMID:18186558
