Biological Activity

PCA 4248 is a specific PAF antagonist, more potent than the ginkolide BN-52021. Inhibits rabbit platelet aggregation with an IC₅₀ value of 1.05 μM and has no significant activity on Ca²⁺ channels. Active in vivo, antagonizing PAF-induced systemic hypotension and protein-plasma extravasation in rats.
