Coagulation and Fibrinolysis Flashcards
Factors that are most prominent bleeding disorders that occur in patients who survive gestation and birth.
Factors 8 and 9
Two critically important assemblies that are essential for normal hemostasis
tenase and prothrombinase
Major inhibitor of tPA and TcuPA
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1)
Most potent and highly selective inhibitor of plasmin.
α2-Antiplasmin
Three major anticoagulant systems regulate the enzymes of the coagulation protein system to help to inhibit clot formation.
protein C/protein S system, the plasma serine protease inhibitor system
Regulated by natural anticoagulants and the fibrinolytic system to avoid thrombus formation and extension
Coagulation
Kunitz-type serine protease inhibitor
TFPI
Main serine protease inhibitor of coagulation enzymes of the plasma serine protease inhibitor system
Antithrombin (antithrombin III)
When activated, protein C, _____________________, is an enzyme that functions as an inhibitor
a 62-kDa vitamin K–dependent protein,
Protein C is activated by thrombin when bound to an endothelial cell protein
Thrombomodulin
A 69-kDa vitamin K–dependent protein, is not an enzyme
Protein S
It is a cofactor, or receptor, for activated protein C on cell membranes.
Protein S
Most potent inhibitor of FXIIa, kallikrein, and FXIa in plasma
C1 inhibitor
(C1 esterase inhibitor)
Regulate the amount of free bradykinin in the intravascular compartment and reduce inflammatory events
C1 inhibitor (C1 esterase inhibitor)
Causative factor for types I and II hereditary angioedema, a disorder associated with excessive bradykinin delivered to tissues.
C1 inhibitor
Most potent inhibitor of the FVIIa–tissue factor complex.
Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor
