PC
Protein C
PS
Protein S
HMWK
High molecular weight kininogen
TF
Tissue factor (thromboplastin)
Prothrombinase complex
Xa bound to Va+Ca on PL
Xa + Va
Extrinsic tenase complex
VIIa + TF
Intrinsic Tenase Complex
- Platelet tenase complex
- IXa + VIIIa
Hemostasis
- circulatory homeostasis
- keep blood liquid…but stop from bleeding
How hemostasis is maintained
Anticoagulant factors: - from endothelial cells Procoagulant factors: - platelets - plasma proteins in inactive states (zymogens...most are)
Arterial circulation
- high flow, high pressure
- smaller vessels
- platelets are big player
- anti-platelet agents used to treat thrombosis
Venous circulation
- low flow, low pressure
- bigger vessels
- rate of thrombin formation big player
- antithrombin agents for DVT
What happens when arterial blood vessel damaged
- constriction
- platelet adhesion
- platelet activation (plug forms)
- coagulation and fibrin clot formation
- clot retraction
- fibrinolytic cascade
- vessel repair
End point of activation stage
- fibrin clot formation
Platelet role in coagulation
- needed for quick clot formation
- provide surface to take place on
- receptor site for coagulation factors
- release some factors
- not just # important…but need to be activated at site of injury
