Q

Describe clot removal

A

Plasmin is an enzyme that digests fibrin
Plasminogen is inactive form of plasmin, made by liver, found in blood
tPA activates plasminogen-plasmin
tPA is released by damaged tissue
Delayed activation due to tPA inhibitor in blood… so you won’t actually start using tPA until the blood goes away/the damage is healed
*Protein C inactivates tPA inhibitor
