Physiology Flashcards
Universal donor of RBCs
Universal recipient of plasma
O
Hemophilia deficiency and type of inherited
Hemophilia A - 8 - XR
Hemophilia B - 9 - XR
Hemophilia C - 11 - AR
Coagulation steps that require calcium and phospholipids
Around activated 10
Around activated 7
Bradykinin function
Increases vasodilation, permeability and pain
Kinin cascade
HMWK to bradykinin via Kallikrein
XII to XIIa
Collagen, basement membrane, activated platelets, HMWK
Factor Xa inhibitors anticoagulants
- LMWH (greatest efficacy)
- Heparin
- Direct Xa inhibitors (apixaban, rivaroxaba)
- Fondaparinux
Thrombin inhibitors (anticoagulants)
- Heparin (greatest efficacy)
- LMWH (delteparin, enoxaparin)
- Direct thrombin inhibitors (argatroban, bivalirudin, dagigatran)
Universal recipient of RBCs
Universal donor of plasma
AB
Reduce vitamin K act as cofactor of
Precursor to mature 2, 7, 9, 10, C, S
vWF carries/protects
VIII
Pr C to activated Pr C
Thrombin- trombomodulin complex (endothelial cells)
Activated Pr C and Pr S cleaves and inactivates
Va and VIIIa
Antithrombin inhibits
Activated 2, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12
Heparin enhances the activity of
Antithrombin
Principles targets of antithrombin
Thrombin and factor Xa
Fibrinolyisis (by plasmin)
- Cleavage of fibrin mesh
2. Destruction of coagulation factora
Plasminogen to plasmin
tPA (used clinically as a thrombolytic)
Thrombolytics
tPA, alteplase, reteplase, streptokinase, tenecteplase
Inhibits plasmin formation
Aminocaproic acid
First response to endothelial damage
Transient vasoconstriction via neural stimulation reflex and endothelin (released from damaged cells)
Vwf are derived from
- Weibel-Palade bodies of endothelial cells
2. α-granules of platelets
Conformation changes after vwf binding in platelets via GpIb produce
Releasing of ADP , calcium, TXA2 (from platelet cycloxygenase)
ADP action on coagulation cascade
- Platelets adherence to endothelium
- ADP binding receptor induce GpIIb/IIIa expression at platelet surface
Pro-aggregation factors
- TXA2 (released from platelets)
- Decreased blood flow
- Increased platelets aggregation
