Q

Primary hemostasis

A

1) primary hemostasis – primary plug – platelet aggregation

creates a physical plug causing vasoconstriction to reduce blood flow

platelets interact with broken vessel + each other to form primary hemostatic plug

A

1) vasoconstriction
2) Collagen exposure activates platelets producing a primary hemostatic plug
3) Tissue factors lead to the overlaying of fibrin to produce a fibrin clot.

Q

fibrinogen: how it gets activated to fibrin

A

fibrinogen has 3 domains (D–E–D), 3 subunits (alpha, beta, gamma), and 2 sites for cleaving, A and B (superior/inferior to alpha subunit)

the Alpha subunit can subsequently fit into the gamma site of another fibrinogen’s gamma site: this is the cross linking effect.

alpha (E domain, A site) fits into the gamma (D domain) site, creating a

while cleavage of A peptide uncovers sites in the E domain that are complementary to the D domain

25
How is protrhombin modified?
a glutamic acids gets an additional carboxyl group that adds a -2 charge to an R group on amino acid = gamma carboxyglutamate.
26
What is protrhombin's post-translational modification called
gamma-carboxyglutamate glutamic acid on prothrombin receives a corboxylic acid group that has a -2 charge
27
Why is the additional charged group added to glutamic acid on prothrombin important?
Damaged tissue rexposes calcium (+2 charge) at the site of injury, so carboxyglutamine can bind it perfectly with the -2 charge added. in turn Calcium binds platelets which have exploded uncovering negatively charged phospholipids as they invert
28
Platelet phospholipids
invert after binding to exposed collagen | negative charge on inverted phospholipids binds calcium which is also stabilized by the carboxyglutamate in the thrombin
29
Vitamin K
caryboxylation of prothrombin requires vK
30
4 enzyme involved in carboxylation of glutamic acid in prothrombin
Vitamin K Hydroquinone--> oxidized to Vitamin K epoxide by Carboxylase (activated by VKH)--> reduced to VKH by Epoxide Reductase warfarin and Dicoumerol: competitive inhibitors of epoxide reductase.
31
Coumadin
warfarin, competitive inhibitor of Epoxide Reductase: prevents Vk from activating enzyme responsible for carboxylating glutamic acid in prothrombin
32
Dicoumerol
competitive inhibitor of epoxide reductase
33
warfarin facts
active ingredient in rat poison, patients have to be watched carefully WARF = "Wisconsin Alumni Research Fund" patented by university of wisconsin.
34
Clotting cascade of _______
serine proteases, contain serine residue in active site of proteases exist as zymogens- inactive enzymes made by proteolytic cleavage
35
Intrinsic PW
workhorse of the clotting cascade, does not requires a protein outside of the blood to be activated
36
Extrinsic PW
the "SPARK" to get the clotting cascade going
37
Intrinsic PW factors
12, 11, 9, and 8:, all activated. Importantly, (F8/F9)a
38
1. Intrinsic PW begins with ______ being activated by ______
contact factor (12) being activated by active form of pre-kalikrein (Kalikrein), a protease XII (surface activation) ---> XIIa
39
2. Intrinsic PW's second step is activation of ______ by ----
XI by Calcium-bound XIIa
40
3. Intrinsic PW's third step is activation of ____ by ____
IX by XIa+PF3+Calcium---> IXa PF3 is the inverted phospholipid on the platelet that binds calcium
41
4. Intrinsic PWs fourth step is the formation of
IXa - VIIIa complex Thrombin activates VIII
42
Start of Common PW begins with
(IX--VIII) = Tenase Tenase activate X ---> Xa in the presence of PF3 and Calcium Xa combines with FVa to form PROTHROMBINASE V is activated by thrombin
43
Which factor is common to intrinsic and extrinsic?
X
44
what two factors are activated during the intrinsic PW
VIII and V
45
Prothrombinase
Va+Xa
46
Xa--Va activate
This is the prothrombinase that activates thrombin
47
Hemophilia is deficiency in what factors
Type A is VIII deficiency and Type B is IX deficiency
48
Amplification Cascade
a handful of XII causes a massive clotting cascade signal, each factor is increased at each stop of the clotting cascade
49
Extrinsic Pathway
Activated by a component not normally in the blood, factor III (tissue factor) Tissue factor activates VII
50
How EX PW begins
factor III activates factor VII VIIa combine with another factor III to form a complex VIIa-TF complex The rest is the common PW Vlla+TF complex activate X---Xa while thrombin activates V to Va Va+Xa form Prothrombinase Prothrombinase activates prothrombin --> thrombin thrombin continues cascade
51
Common PW is just
Factor X to the fibrin clot formation
52
How is thrombin active if thrombin is actively produced?
~ 1% of FVII circulates as FVIIa, but does not contact damaged tissue After damage, VII and XIII *tissue factor* combine to form complex that activates FX Platelets release FVa, released from platelets forms FXa--FVa complex (prothrombinase comlex) which gets things going
53
Why is Extrinsic important outside of its own contributions to the clotting cascade? How does it relate to the intrinsic PW?
It sets the intrinsic in motion by setting VII into motion (VIIa)
54
Vitamin K Dependent Factors: 3 factors that aren't glutamic acid that require vitamin K activated carboxylation
X, IX, VII
55
Positive Feedback Mechanism for clotting factors
Thrombin, XIa, Xa, VIIa
56
Partial THromboplastin Time
PTT Clotting time from Factor XII to fibrin clot -->> intrinsic pathway, reference is 35 sec
57
Prothrombine Time
PT Clotting time from factor VII to fibrin clot ---> extrinsic and common pathwayas reference time = 10 - 12 sec
58
Clotting in vivo requires a
TF: tissue factor, initiating component (FIII)
59
So what is REALLY be tested for in vivo?
VIIa-TF complex, which activates FIX FIX combines with activated VIII to activate FX, which combines with thrombin-activated V to activate prothrombin --> thrombin IXa --VIII (Tenase)
60
Regulation I: How fibrin is turned off
thrombin binds it and inactivates it Thrombin can cut FVIIIA to inactivate form FVIIIi Thrombin can cut Xa to Xi Thrombin can cut Va to Vi hrombin can cut prothrombin to create an inactive form
61
Regulation II: How Thrombin works to this end
combines with a protein called Thrombomodulin to create TTM complex this cleaves a protein called Protein C into active protein Ca Protein Ca and others inactive FVa and FVIIIa which decreases thrombin
62
Anticlotters: preventing clotting
warfarin and dicoumerol
63
Protects platelet integrity
aspirin
64
Heparin
activates antithrombin III by binding to thrombin and Xa, which it inactivates
65
TPA
tissue plasminogen factor percursor to plasmin, dissolves clot fibrinolysis first genetically engineered human protein to be approved for use in humans, given to remove clot, aslo after stroke if given early
