Fletcher factor
promote coagulation, called
procoagulants,
inhibit coagulation
anticoagulants
coagulants normally predominate, so that the blood does not coagulate while it is circulating in the blood vessels.
anticoagulants
formed continually by the liver, and it is continually being used throughout the body for blood clotting
Prothrombin
is required by the liver for normal for- mation of prothrombin as well as for formation of a few other clotting factors
Vitamin K
is a high-molecular-weight protein (MW = 340,000) that occurs in the plasma in quantities of 100 to 700 mg/dl. formed in the liver,
Fibrinogen
is a protein enzyme with weak proteolytic capabilities. It acts on fibrinogen to remove four low-molecular- weight peptides from each molecule of fibrinogen
Thrombin
activates the fibrin-stabilizing factor
Thrombin
operates as an enzyme to cause covalent bonds between more and more of the fibrin monomer molecules, as well as multiple cross- linkages between adjacent fibrin fibers, thus adding tremendously to the three-dimensional strength of the fibrin meshwork.
