Q

Delineate the Nitric Oxide pathway?

A
  • NOS converted into NO by L-arginine.
  • NO diffuses into muscle cell & stimulates SGC to convert GTP into cGMP -> causing relaxation.

Q

What hormones are involved in the vascular phase & they do what?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Endothelins.
  • Stimulate smooth muscle contraction, endothelial- smooth muscle- & fibroblast cell division
20
Q

What are the 3 phases of platelet formation?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Adherence
  • Activation
  • Aggregation
21
Q

Where are about 1/3 of platelets sequestered?

Study These Flashcards
A

In the spleen

22
Q

What & where are platelets cleared?

Study These Flashcards
A

By macrophages in the (R)eticulo(e)ndothelial (s)ystem & spleen

23
Q

What is all (7) contained inside of platelets per lecture?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • (F)ibrin-stabilizing factor,
  • (A)ctin & myosin,
  • (C)alcium,
  • (T)hrombosthenin,
  • (s)erotonin,
  • ADP,
  • growth factor
24
Q

What is present on platelet’s external surface?

Study These Flashcards
A

Glycoproteins & phospholipids

25
What is the function of platelet’s glycoproteins?
Adhere to endothelium, collagen & fibrinogen. GpIIb-IIIa complex links activated Plt together. GpIb sticks Plt to vWF.
26
What happens during adherence?
vWF emerges from endothelial cell. GpIb emerge from Plt surface. GpIb attach to vWF
27
What happens during the Activation phase?
Plt conformational change --> swells, oval & irregular. GpIIb & IIIa project outward from Plt’s surface & link to other platelets.
28
What happens during the Aggregation phase?
- Plt release mediators (alpha & dense granules, contractile granules, thrombin, etc). - Mediators for primary unstable clot. - Primary plug maintains hemostasis or clotting cascade is activated if injury is large.
29
What clotting factors are required for Fibrin production?
All of them
30
Which clotting factors are vitamin K dependent?
II, VII, IX & X
31
Which clotting factors are not made in the liver?
III, IV, VIII
32
What pathway will not work very well with a calcium deficiency?
Extrinsic pathway
33
What factors initiate the extrinsic pathway?
III & VII (37 cents buy the extrinsic pathway)
34
Delineate the extrinsic pathway?
- Tissue factor III activates pathway --> III activates factor VII to VIIa, - VIIa w/ calcium (factor IV) activates factor X to Xa. - Xa activates Prothrombin activator to convert Prothrombin to Thrombin (factor II). - Factor V accelerates positive feedback & increases prothrombin activator production.
35
The extrinsic pathway needs___ to form a clot & the intrinsic pathway needs ___ to form a clot?
12-15sec & 6mins
36
What sets off the intrinsic pathway?
Blood trauma / exposure to collagen (factor XII)
37
Delineate the intrinsic pathway?
-Collagen exposure activates factor XII to XIIa conversion. - XIIa activates XI to XIa. - Factor XIa activates factor IX to IXa conversion. - IXa & VIII activate factor X to Xa. - Factor Xa activates prothrombin activator.
38
What factor is missing with hemophilia A?
Factor VIII
39
Delineate the common pathway?
- Prothrombin activator changes Prothrombin (II) to Thrombin (IIa). - IIa changes Fibrinogen (I) to Fibrin - Prothombin (II) activates XIIIa (Activated fibrin-stabilizing factor ) .
40
What prevents excessive fibrin deposition?
Fibrinolysis
41
Urokinase is produced & released where?
By the kidneys to prevent small clots getting lodged in the kidney tissue
42
What are 2 fibrinogenic factors?
(K)allikrien & (N)eutrophil (e)lastase
43
What is the function of Kallikrien & neutrophil elastase?
Convert plasminogen to plasmin
44
How does tPA work?
- Converts Plasminogen to Plasmin --> - Breaks down Fibrin into Fibrin degradation split products
45
What are the values for BT, PT, aPTT, TT, ACT & Fibrinogen?
BT= 3-10mins PT= 12-14sec aPTT= 25-35sec TT= 30sec ACT= 80-150sec Fibrinogen= >150 mg/dL
