Coagulation/hematology Flashcards
vWF is a/n
procoagulant
Antithrombin III is a/n
anticoagulant
Nitric oxide is a/n
vasodilator
also inhibits plasmin binding between GPIIa/IIIb on platelets
Thromboxane A2 is a/n
vasoconstrictor
also encourages platelet aggregation
released by activated platelet
Plasminogen is a/n
fibrinolytic
A-antiplasmin is a/n
antifibrinolytic
prostacyclin is a/n
Vasodilator
Protein C is a/n
Procoagulant
but sometimes an anticoagulant
ADP is a/n
vasoconstrictor and platelet aggregator
released from platelet
tPA is a/n
fibrinolytic
Plasminogen activator inhibitor is a/n
antifibrinolytic
Protein S is a/an:
anticoagulant and procoagulant, depending on where it is acting with thrombin in the cascade
Fibronectin is a/n
Procoagulant
Tissue pathway factor inhibitor is a/n
anticoagulant
Serotonin is a/n
vasoconstrictor
Urokinase is a/n
fibrinolytic
thrombomodulin is a/n
procoagulant
Factor XIII is also known as
Fibrin stabilizing factor
