rapidly degraded
27
key enzyme responsible for clot digestion
Plasmin
28
________ renders resistance to proteolysis by activated protein C (APC)..This then tips the balance of the coagulation system slightly in favor of increased thrombin generation/procoagulation
Factor V Leiden mutation -leads to increased risk of thrombosis
29
released by the rupture of the plasma membrane, which destroys the cell and results in the secretion of the product into the lumen.
