Q

sources of vitamin K

A
  • green leafy vegetables

- bacterial synthesis in gut

17
Q

PT

A

prothrombin time

  • extrinsic system
  • common pathway, factor VII (7)
18
Q

PTT

A

partial thrombin time

  • intrinsic pathway
  • common pathway, factors VIII, IX, XI, XII (8,9,11,12)
19
Q

What is not reflected in PT or PTT?

A

vWF, factor XIII (13)

20
Q

von Willebrand Factor

A
  • glycoprotein
  • endothelial cells (Weibel Palade bodies) and megakaryocytes (alpha granules in platelets)
  • released on vascular injury

1) carrier protein for factor VIII (8)
2) binds platelets to damaged endothelium (adhesion)
3) binds activated platelets together (aggregation)

21
Q

platelet adhesion

A
  • vascular damage exposes collagen
  • subendothelial damage binds vWF
  • vWF binds GPIa on platelets

damaged wall/collagen can bind platelet directly via GPIa/IIa receptor

22
Q

GPIb

A
  • on platelets
  • binds vWF
  • platelet adhesion
23
Q

GPIIb/IIIa receptor

A

-mediates aggregation

  • once platelet activated, GPIIb/IIIa changes shape –> binds fibrinogen or vWF
  • links platelets together
24
Q

platelet secretion

A

activated by

  • binding subendothelial collagen
  • binding activating substances
  • secretion of stored activators causes more activation
25
Q

alpha granules

A

in platelets

  • fibrinogen (aggregation)
  • thrombospondin (aggregation)
  • vWF (adhesion/aggregation)
  • factor V (fibrin clot)
  • platelet factor 4 (heparin antagonist, promotes fibrin clot)
  • beta thromboglobulin (recruits fibroblasts)
  • PDGF (recruits fibroblasts)
  • P selectin (adhesion to phagocytes)
26
Q

dense granules

A

in platelets

  • ADP
  • Ca (cofactor for fibrin formation)
  • serotonin (vasoconstriction)
27
Q

P2Y1

A
  • platelet receptor
  • adenosine binds
  • Ca release
  • platelet shape change
28
Q

P2Y13

A
  • platelet receptor
  • adenosine binds
  • platelet degranulation
  • more aggregation
29
Q

effects of ADP

A

P2Y1

  • Ca release
  • shape change of platelet

P2Y12

  • platelet degranulation
  • more aggregation
30

A
  • platelet activator
  • cell membrane lipids –> AA –> TXA2

31
Q

production of platelets stimulated by

A

GM-CSF
IL-3
IL-6

32
Q

GPIa/IIa receptor

A
  • on platelets

- collagen from damaged wall can bind to platelet directly

33
Q

A
  • thrombin
  • thromboxane A2
  • epinephrine
  • ADP
  • collagen
  • AA
34
Q
