Type I vWD
all vWF multimers are present but at decreased concentrations. Severity varies. Is most common form, occurs in many dog breeds including Dobermans
Type II vWD
severe, uncommon. Deficiency of vWF with a disproportionate decrease in large multimers. German shorthair pointers, German wirehaired pointers, reported in horses
Type III vWD
severe, involves absence of all vWF multimers. Chesapeake Bay retrievers, Dutch kooikers, Scottish terriers, Shetland sheepdogs
vWD clinical and laboratory signs
o Mild to severe mucosal hemorrhage (epistaxis, GI hemorrhage, prolonged estral bleeding), cutaneous bruising, prolonged hemorrhage from nonsurgical or surgical trauma (tail docking, puppy dewclaw removal, tooth extraction), hemarthrosis and hematomas in horses
o Absence of petechiae may help differentiate vWD from platelet disorders
o Prolonged BMBT without thrombocytopenia or prolonged coagulation times
Inhibitor of the TF/extrinsic pathway
TFPI
Initiator of the extrinsic pathway
- Initiated by TF expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells, activated monos, other extravascular cells.
Importance of TF/extrinsic pathway
Important in initiating thrombin generation
Initiator of the intrinsic pathway
initiated when the contact coagulation factors HMWK, PK, and factor XII contact negatively charged surfaces (collagen)
Inhibitor of the surface induced/intrinsic pathway
inhibited by AT, protein C, protein S, protein Z
surface induced/intrinsic pathway is also activated secondary to which activation
also activated secondary to TF and common pathway activation: TF-VIIa activates factor IX; thrombin activates factors XI and VIII
Importance of surface induced/intrinsic pathway
important in propagating and amplifying thrombin generation initiated by the TF pathway
Initiator of common pathway
initiated by activation of factor X–>Xa by either surface-induced or TF pathway
Effect of common pathway
- Leads to formation of thrombin from prothrombin by the prothrombinase complex
- Thrombin acts on fibrinogen to generate fibrin monomers then multimers, which are cross-linked via factor VIIIa
Inhibitor of common pathway
inhibited by AT, protein C, protein S, protein Z
amplifier of common pathway
Thrombin activation of factor V amplifies the common pathway
