  • Title: Kinetic behavior of the multienzyme system of blood prostanoid synthesis.
    Author: Varfolomeev SD, Gachok VP, Mevkh AT.
    Journal: Biosystems; 1986; 19(1):45-54. PubMed ID: 3013337.
    Abstract:
    A kinetic scheme of the prostacyclin-thromboxane system has been evolved on the basis of our own experimental material and the results described elsewhere. The kinetic behavior of the model has been analysed with the aid of computer technology by varying the following parameters: phospholipase activities, free arachidonic acid exchange rates between platelets and endothelium, prostaglandin H (PGH) synthetase biosynthesis rates, velocities of arachidonic acid pathways other than cyclooxygenase ones. It has been demonstrated that the biological system is capable of sustaining prostacyclin and thromboxane concentrations at steady fixed levels within a wide range of kinetic parameters.
