Q

steps of clot formation

A
  1. neurogenic vasoconstriction in response to injury
  2. platelets recruited to injury. adhere to subendothelial matrix and are activated
    3 phospholipid membrane forms upon which clot forms
    4 thrombus formation

Q

vonwillebrand functions

A

adhesion- conformational change

13
Q

intrinsic pathway

A
factor 12 -> 12 a
12a activates
11 -> 11a
11a activates
9 -> 9a
9a in the presence of 8a and Ca
10 -> 10a
10a in the presence of 5a and Ca activates
2 -> 2a
2a in the presence of Ca activates
fibrinogen to fibrin
fibrin in the presence of 13 = crosslinked fibrin = clot

16
Q

thrombin master conductor activates

A

factor 9a, 8 to become 8a, 5 to become 5a, platelets, fibrinolysis, and fibrin

17
Q

what does 13 do?

A

stabilizes clot by crosslinking lysine and glutamine side chain in the fibrin polymers

18
Q

quaternary complex

A

enzyme + cofactor assembled on phospholipid surface by calcium ions

improves efficiency of clotting

19
Q

mechanisms for localized clots

A

anticoagulate systems to prevent clotting of entire vascular tree

endothelial derived (heparin like), thrombomodulin, tissue plasminogen, etc)

20
Q

coumadin

A

vitamin K antagonist, decreases factors 2 7 9 10

21
Q

heparin

A

inhibits factor 10

22
Q

t-PA, urokinase, streptokinase

A

fibrinolytic agents to lyse clot

23
Q

anticoagulant mechanisms

A

antithrombin system

protein c system

fibrinolytic system

24
Q

antithrombin

A

in presence of heparin like molecules, under goes conformational change that acts on thrombin and prevents it from acting further

25
Q

protein c system

A

thrombomodulin- endothelial bound protein binds protein C (vit K dependent). protein S is a cofactor of protein C

protein C inactivates 5 and 8

26
Q

fibrinolytic system

A

plasminogen (t-PA- tissue type, protein bound; u-PA- urokinase type, made in kidney, free in plasma)- converted to plasmin

cleaves fibrin

27
Q

plasminogen activator inhibitr

A

inactivates excess plasminogen

secreted by endothelial cells

28
Q

alpha-2-antiplasmin

A

inactivates excess plasmin

secreted by endothelial cells
