Blood Flashcards
Starling forces
Filtration (bulk flow due to difference in hydrostatic pressure)
Osmotic flow
Hypoxia
Lower avaibility of O2 for the tissues
Destruction of RBC
Hemolysis
Bilirubin normal concentration in plasma
1mg/dL
Polycythemia
Increase in capacity of blood to carry oxygene
Normal volume of RBC
80-94 u3
Intrinsic factor
In stomach, binds to B12 in stomach to allow absorption in ileum (when there’s none: pernicious anemia and it’s deadly)
Arrest of bleeding
Hemostasis
Thrombopoietine comes from
Liver
Effect of aspirin
Inhibits release of thromoboxane A2 (functional platelet deficiency)
Clot retraction
Thrombosthenin released by platelets
Vitamin K deficiency
Clotting factor deficiencies : vitamin K is required in synthesis of many plasma factors
Clot lysis
Plasminogen (plasminogen activator)—> plasmin -> fibrin into fibrin fragments
Theories for adaptive immunology
Pauling’s: direct template theory (but too long)
Ehrlich : sélective theory (all cells make a lot of something when that thing triggered by an antigen)
