4: Aualitative Disorders Flashcards
Plasma count in Platelet Rich Plasma
200-300 x 10^9/L
Sample used in Optical Platelet Aggregometry
PRP
Principle used in Optical Platelet Aggregometry
Light transmittance aggregometry
Baseline 0% transmission scaled down to 100% transmittance
Optical Platelet Aggregometry
5 phases of Optical Platelet Aggregometry
- Baseline
- Shape change
- Primary-wave aggregation
- ADP/ATP release
- Second-wave aggregation
Anticoagulant used in Whole Blood Aggregometry
Citrate
Sample used in Whole Blood Aggregometry
Whole blood
Principle used in Whole Blood Aggregometry
Electrical impedance
As platelet aggregate, platelets collect on the electrodes impeding the current. The change is amplified and recorded.
Whole Blood Aggregometry
Sample used in Platelet Lumi Aggregometry
WB and PRP
Principle used in Platelet Lumi Aggregometry
Chemiluminescence
What reagent is added in Platelet Lumi Aggregometry test that is oxidized by ATP which generates proportional chemiluminescence
Luciferin-luciferase enzyme
Typically the first agonist used in Platelet Lumi Aggregometry because it induces full secretion
Thrombin
Biphasic agonists
Thrombin
ADP
Epinephrine
Monophasic agonists
Collagen
Arachidonic acid
Ristocetin
What curve is related to the secretion of the granules
Biphasic curve
What curve only produces primary wave and is used to assess platelet aggregation
Monophasic curve
Receptors of thrombin
PAR1 & PAR4
GPIba & GPVI
Receptors of ADP
P2Y1 & P2Y12
Receptors of Epinephrine
A2-adrenergic
Agonist that is relatively unaffected by membrane disorders or enzyme deficiencies
Thrombin
Most commonly used agonist
ADP
Cannot induce aggregation in storage pool disorder or eicosanoid synthesis pathway defects no matter how high its concentration
Epinephrine
Does not work in WB aggregometry test for abnormalities of membrane binding sites and the eicosanoid synthesis pathway
Epinephrine
Receptors of Collagen
GPIa/GPIIa & GPVI
Receptos of Arachidonic acid
TPa and TPb
Receptors of Ristocetin
GPIb/IX/V with vWF
Loss of response of this agonist may indicate membrane abnormality, secretion defect or antiplatelet drugs
Collagen
Agonist that assess platelet eicosanoid synthesis pathway
Arachidonic acid
