coagulation factors
growth modulators
adhesive proteins

28
Q

T-F - platelet granules also contain lysozymes

A

True

29
Q

What does release of granule contents cause?

A

vasoconstriction, modulation of growth of vessel, cell adhesion, fluid phase coagulation

30
Q

What generates arachidonic acid?

A

phospholipids acted upon by Phospholipase C.

31
Q

What converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxide?

A

cyclo-oxygenase

32
Q

What becomes of the endoperoxides?

A

prostoglandins

or Thromboxane A2

33
Q

The secretion of platelet alpha granules leads to high concentrations of fibrinogen, factors V, VIII, XI, XIII which lead to and enhance what?

A

fibrin formation and stabilization

34
Q

True or False- platelets have similarities of embryonic muscle?

A

True- actin myosin in platelets which organize filopodia

35
Q

What do the platelet filopodias bind to?

A

fibrin and then contract to pull close together- drawing together the edges of the injured tissue.

36
Q

What inhibits platelet aggregation

A

prostacyclin- made by endothelial cells

NO- also made from endothelial cells

37
Q

Abnormal bleeding does not occur above what platelet count? troublesome bleeding?

A

> 100x10^9

<50x10^9

38
Q

What factor is the main factor of activation from prothrombin to thrombin

A

Factor Xa

39
Q

The final product of the coagulation cascade is fibrinogen to fibrin which is then cross linked by which factor?

A

XIII

40
Q

What initiates the coagulation cascade in vivo?

A

tissue factor

41
Q

What type of cell produces most of the coagulation factors? Exceptions?

A

hepatocytes—

  • -exception VIII- liver endothelial cells
    • exception vWf- endothelial cells and megakaryocytes
42
Q

What must PROTHROMBIN(II), VII, IX, X, protein C and S have in order to be fully functional?

A

Vitamin K

43
Q

Where does most of the Vitamin K we need come from?

A

gastrointestinal tract by bacteria

44
Q

What step is vitamin K needed?

A

second step- acts as a cofactor for an enzyme that inserts a second carboxyl group into gamma carbon on glutamic residues

45
Q

What are the 5 roles of thrombin?

A
  1. cleavage of fibrinogen to fibrin
  2. activate clotting factors (V,VIII,XI,XIII)
  3. activation of platelets

antithrombin–also note that it inhibits XIa,Xa, IXa.

54
Q

What inhibits extrinsic pathway tissue factor/factor VIIa/ factor Xa/ calcium complex?

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI)

55
Q

The ability to lyse or dissolve a clot primarily comes from what protein?

A

Plasmin- From plasminogen produced in liver

56
Q

T-F –plasmin can cleave fibrinogen or fibrin?

A

True

57
Q

Cleavage of fibrin produces what>

A

D-dimers

58

What does plasminogen activator T-PA have a high affinity for?

A

Fibrin

59
Q

What inhibits activation of plasmin?

A

PAI-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor

60
Q

What is plasmin activity physiologically regulated by>

A

alpha 2 antiplasmin–binds lysine binding site on plasmin

61
Q

Normal unperturbed epithelium supports what 3 things?

A
  1. antithrombin inactivation of thrombin (by heparinoids)
  2. APC formation (by thrombin/thrombomodulin complex
  3. Prostacyclin- inhibit platelet adherence/aggregation
62
Q

Patients with deficiencies in factor VIII or IX have what bleeding disorder?

A

hemophilia

63

A

increased risk of clotting because missing normal checks of clotting process.
