Q

What happens after factor 11 (plasma thromboplastin antecedent) is activated?

A

Activated factor 11 activates factor 9 (plasma prothrombin component). It requires Calcium to do this.

25
What factor number is Hageman factor?
XII
26
What is factor XIII?
Fibrin stabilizing factor
27
What factor number is fibrin stabilizing factor?
XIII
28
What happens when factor 9 is activated?
There is the addition of phospholipid surfaces of aggregated platelets. Along with active factor IX, it activates factor VIII then together it creates an activate factor IX/active factor 8 complex.
29
What happens after tissue factor is activated?
With the addition of Calcium, it activates factor VII (proconvertin). This creates a tissue factor/active factor 7 complex.
30
Within both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, what leads to active factor 10?
activate factor IX/active factor 8 complex (intrinsic) and tissue factor/active factor 7 complex (extrinsic).
31
What creates prothrombin activator?
Consists of active factor X, active factor V, calcium and phospholipid surface.
32
What are crucial components to both pathways?
Negatively charged membranes (glass, metal, collagen)
33
What are some characteristics of the intrinsic pathway?
Called intrinsic because the factors needed for clotting are present within (intrinsic to) the blood. Triggered by negatively charged surfaces such as activated platelets, collagen, or glass. (The negative charges on glass explain why this is the pathway that initiates clotting outside the body in test tubes.) Slower because it has many intermediate steps.
34
What are some characteristics of the extrinsic pathway?
Called extrinsic because the tissue factor it requires is outside of blood. Triggered by exposing blood to a factor found on cells in tissues surrounding the blood vessel. This factor is called tissue factor (TF) or factor III. Faster because it bypasses several steps of the intrinsic pathway. In severe tissue trauma, it can form a clot in 15 seconds.
35
Describe the common pathway to thrombin.
Prothrombin activator catalyzes the conversion of a plasma protein called prothrombin into the active enzyme thrombin.
36
Describe the common pathway to the fibrin mesh.
The end point of phase 3 is a fibrin mesh that traps blood cells and effectively seals the hole until the blood vessel can be permanently repaired. Thrombin catalyzes the transformation of the soluble clotting factor fibrinogen into fibrin. The fibrin molecules then polymerize (join together) to form long, hairlike, insoluble fibrin strands. The fibrin strands glue the platelets together and make a web that forms the structural basis of the clot. Fibrin makes the liquid plasma become gel-like and traps formed elements that try to pass through it
37
What is the pathway and function of fibrinogen?
Common pathway; converted to fibrin (insoluble weblike substance of clot)
38
What is the pathway and function of prothrombin?
Common pathway; converted to thrombin (converts fibrinogen to fibrin)
39
What is the pathway and function of tissue factor?
Extrinsic path; activated extrinsic path
40
Where is the source of fibrinogen?
Liver
41
Where is the source of prothrombin?
Liver
42
Where is the source for tissue factor?
Tissue cells
43
What is the pathway and function of calcium?
Needed for essentially all stages of coagulation; always present
44
What is the source of calcium?
plasma
45
What is the pathway and function of proaccelerin (factor V)?
common pathway; part of the prothrombin activator complex
46
Where is the source for proaccelerin (factor V)?
Liver, platelets
47
What is the pathway and the function of proconvertin (factor VII)?
external pathway, creates the active factor 7 and tissue factor complex
48
What is the source of factor VII (proconvertin)?
Liver
49
What is the pathway and the function for antihemophilic factor?
Intrinsic pathway; makes the active factor 9/active factor 8 complex that activate factor 10
50
What is the source of antihemophilic factor?
liver and lung capillaries
51
Where is the source for factor 13 (fibrin stabilizing factor)?
liver and bone marrow
52
What is the function of factor 13?
cross-links fibrin, forming a strong stable clot
