What does the platelet release causing the contraction of the smooth muscles?
Local autacoid factors
___________ are initiated by the pain nerve impulses or other sensory impulses that originate from the traumatized vessel or the nearby tissues.
Nervous reflexes
more vessel constriction can result from the _________.

prostaglandins
prostaglandin produces?
local hormones
an important protein found in the thrombocytes?
Fibrin-stabilizing factor
one of the physical and chemical properties of a thrombocytes where it causes vascular endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle and fibroblasts to multiply
growth factor
what are multiplied with the growth factor of the thrombocytes?

a growth that eventually helps repair the damage vascular walls
Growth factor
a part of the functional characteristics of a thrombocyte where it is present in the cell membrane. what are they?
Glycoproteins and phospholipids
where can you find the glycoproteins and phospholipids in the platelets?
Cell membrane
it is a surface coat found in the platelets
glycoproteins
it repulses adherence to normal endothelium and yet causes adherence to injured areas of the vessel wall
glycoproteins
what do glycoproteins repulses and cause adherence to?
Repulses normal endothelium and causes adherence to injured areas of the vessel wall

enumerate the mechanism of the platelet plug
- Platelets come in contact with a damaged vascular surface
- Swell and assume irregular forms with numerous irradiating
pseudopods - Contractile proteins contract forcefully
- Release of granules
- Adhere to collagen and von Willenbrand factor
