Q

What are Zymogens?

A

Substrates with no biologic activity until converted by enzymes to serine proteases shich arr able to conver other zymogens by hydrolyzing arginine/lysine containing peptide bonds.

Q

How does Zymogens get activated?

A

The initial reaction is due to :

  1. Exposed endothelial surfaces of blood vessels
  2. Hydrolytic cleavage of a specific zymogen peptide bond in the presence platelet phospholipid surface.
    * They also need co-factors and they causes biochemical aplification of coagulation process.

Q

What is the function of HMWK?

A

Increases vascular permeability, dilating small blood vessels, contracting smooth muscles and causing pain.

Also, stimulates the synthesis and secretion of Endothelial Cells, prostacyclin, nitric oxide and tPA.

Q

What is the role of Prekallikrein and HMWK in coagulation?

A

PreKallikrein and HMWK circulates in the plasma. Prekallikrein is acrivated by HMWK and XIIa to Kallikrein.

Kallikrein accelerates the activation of another XII to XIIa.

Q

Prothrombin group require what co-factor? Why?

A

Vitamin K. For y-carboxylation of gluctamic acid residues in y-carboxyglutamic acid rich regeiins and alloeing these factors to bind Calcium needed in building calcium bridges with the platelet phispholipid surface.
