19
Q

A reversible process where platelets stick or bind to the endothelial cells or to a non-platelet surfaces

A

Platelet Adhesion

20
Q

A membrane receptor that would expose when platelets are activated

A

GP Ib

21
Q

GP Ib will bind to the endothelium (sub-endothelial collagen) with the help of

A

Von Willebrand Factor (vWF)

22
Q

This promotes platelet adhesion

A

vWF

23
Q

Important components in Platelet adhesion

A

vWF and Glycoprotein membrane

24
Q
  • Absent: GP IB/IX/V Platelet membrane receptor
  • Characterized by giant platelet (giant bernie)/macrothrombocyte
A

Bernard-Soulier Syndrome (BSS)

25
Q
  • VWF is absent of defective
  • Bleeding tendencies/risk *the first lining will not be processed in the injured site
A

vWF disease

26
Q

An irreversible process where platelet stick or bind together

A

Platelet Aggregation

27
Q

Important components in Platelet aggregation

A

GP IIb/IIIa receptor, fibrinogen, calcium

28
Q

When platelets are activated, a change in GP IIb/IIIa receptor allows binding of fibrinogen as well as VWF and fibronectin which result to

A

Platelet clumping

29
Q

Fibrinogen is one of the coagulation factor known as

A

Factor I

30
Q

Act as glue for GP IIb/IIIa receptors but with the presence or help of calcium

A

Fibrinogen

31
Q

Is also one of the coagulation factor also known as FACTOR IV but preferred to be called by its chemical name

A

Calcium

32
Q
  • Absence of GP IIb/IIIa platelet membrane recepto
  • Problem with the aggregation process
A

Glanzmann thrombasthenia

33
Q

Lack of fibrinogen

A

Afibrogenemia

34
Q

Low levels of normal fibrinogen (functional but decrease in concentration

A

Hypofibrogenemia

35
Q

Dysfunctional or defective fibrinogen (normal in count but dysfunctional)

A

Dysfibrogenemia

36
Q

An irreversible step where platelets release alpha and dense granules

A

Platelet secretion

37
Q

38
Q

Platelet Dense Granules (small molecules) examples

A
  • Adenosine diphosphate (activates neighboring platelets)
  • Adenosine triphosphate
  • Calcium (Ca++)
  • Serotonin (vasoconstrictor)
39
Q

During activation ADP and Ca2+ activates

A

Phospholipase A2

40
Q

Phospholipase A2 converts membrane phospholipids to

A

41
Q

Cyclooxygenase converts arachidonic acid to

A

Prostaglandin endoperoxidase

42
Q

In platelet : Thromboxane synthetase > prostaglandins to

A

Thromboxane A2

43
Q
  • Caused ionized calcium to be released
  • Promoted platelet aggregation
  • Promotes vasoconstriction
A

Thromboxane A2

44
Q

If this phenomena, it will permanently inactivates cyclooxygenase

A

Aspirin Acetylation/Aspirin Light Effect

45
Q

Blocks thromboxane A2 production

A

Aspirin

46
