PAF-induced effects on neutrophils were analyzed in the presence of the subsequently listed pharmacological modulators (their proposed targets are given in brackets): Amiloride [200 μM, 10 min, Na+-channels (15 (link))], BIX [5 μM, 30 min, sodium-proton exchanger 1 (NHE1) (38 (link)); Tocris, Wiesbaden, Germany], 5-Nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid [NPPB, 100 μM, 10 min, Cl channels (39 (link))], and ebselen [10 nM, 30 min, glutathione peroxidase and peroxiredoxin enzyme mimetic and NOX2 inhibitor (40 (link), 41 (link)); Tocris]. Following pre-incubation, samples were divided to obtain paired results and treated as control or stimulated with PAF.
