Although many risk factors for necrotizing enterocolitis have been described, the pathophysiology remains poorly understood. We developed a model of ischemic bowel necrosis in the rat, similar to human neonatal NEC, by injecting platelet activating factor into the splanchnic circulation. In this review, we describe the role of PAF in shock and bowel injury, discuss some other mediators that may interact with PAF and contribute to the intestinal abnormality, and present evidence associating PAF and human NEC.
