IHL I - Intrinsic and Extrinsic Coagulation Pathways Flashcards
thrombosis
results in a blood clot
hemostasis
maintain blood in a fluid state
endothelium
vascular
very important in hemostasis
what do endothelial cells produce?
NO, PGI2, and ADP
nitric oxide
vasodilator and anti-platelet effects
prostacyclin
vasodilator in lungs
ADP
adenosine diphosphate favor attachment of platelet to ECM
Adp (adenosine diphosphatase) - degrades ADP and inhibits the platelet adhesion
Adp
adenosine diphosphate
degrades ADP - and inhibits platelet adhesion
anti-coagulants of the endothelial cells?
heparin sulphate, thrombomodulin, proten S, Tissue factor pathway inhibitor
heparin sulfate
expressed by endothelial cells
hooks onto AT III (antithrombin III) and activates it
ATIII
inactivates thrombin, Xa, and IXa
factor 5 and factor 9**
makes sure coagulation does not occur where it shouldn’t
Thrombomodulin
expressed by endothelial cells
binds to thrombin and converts it to anticoagulant
-by activating protein C
Protein S
produced by endothelial cells
cofactor for protein C
TFPI
tissue factor pathway inhibitor
expressed by endothelial cells
inhibits factor VIIa and Xa
tissue type plasminogen activator
t-PA
synthesized by endothelial cells
activates plasminogen to plasmin
plasmin
degrades fibrin to FDP (fibrin degradation product)
dissolves thrombi
primary hemostasis
localized platelet is formed at site of endothelial injury site
secondary hemostasis
initial platelet plug is enlarged and fibrin is added
-coagulation starts
antithrombosis
clot formation must cease when it is formed
fibrinolysis
last major steop in hemostatis
remove the clot and restore normal blood flow fibrinolysis
what happens when endothelium is damages?
vasoconstriction and vasospasm
-vessel constriction - less blood flow, less blood loss
endothelin
vasoconstrictor released by injured endothelium
vWF
synthesized by the endothelial cells when injured
attaches to the exposed ECM of the injured endothelium
allow the platelets to stick to the site of injury
where does the vWF stick to?
the ECM that is exposed during injury of the endothelial cells
