Blood Clotting
UCI Physio Test 1
Question | Answer |
---|---|
half life of thrombocytes | 5 days |
platelet adhesion binding proteins | GPIaIIa binds collagen; GPIbIX binds von Willebrand factor; GPIIbIIIa binds fibrinogen to other platelets |
when are GPIIbIIa receptors exposed on platelets | during activation |
action of serotonin | vasoconstriction |
action of ADP | activates other platelets |
pathway of which COX 1 is part | phospholipid (phospholipase A2) arachodonic acid (COX1) prostoglandin H2 (thromboxane synthase) thromboxane A2 which activates other platelets |
pathway of which COX 2 is part | arachidonic acid (COX2) prostaglandin G2 (protocyclin synthase [PGI]) prostocyclin I2 [PGI2] which leads to inflammation and oppose platelet activation |
blood clotting factors I, II, III, IV, and XIII | fibrinogen, prothrombin, tissue factor, calcium, and transglutaminase |
where are blood clotting factors which are proteases and protease cofactors produced | liver |
hemophilia A lacks what | clotting factor VIII |
hemophilia B lacks what | clotting factor IX |
which clotting cascade and which clotting factors are essential for life | extrinsic path, tissue factor, and VII/VIIa |
what activates the intrinsic pathway | negative surfaces (contact) |
do you know the clotting cascades? | if not, go check the notes |
what does cofactor V do of note | increase rxn speed of prothrombin to thrombin by 10,000 |
what does vitamin K do, to what, and where | add a CO2 to factors II, VII, IX, C, and S; liver |
what is Calcium's role in clotting | binds some factors (same that need vit K) to platelets |
antithrombin | inhibits thrombin (duh) and factors IXa, Xa, and XIa |
heparin | activates antithrombin |
thrombomodulin location and activity | surface of intact vascular endothelial cells; binds thrombin and inhibits normal thrombin activity; activates thrombin toward protein C |
protein C activity | activated by thrombin and thrombomodulin; inactivates factors V and VIII; protein C is essential |
plasmin action and plasmin activator | clot lysis by hydrolyzing fibrin; TPA activates it |
TPA | tissue-type plasminogen activator |
bernard soulier syndrome | defective vWf receptor (GPIb-IX) |
Glanzmann's disease | defective fibrinogen receptor (GPIIb-IIIa) |
APC stands for what and does what? | activated protein C; inactivates VIII and V |
factor V Leiden | single pt mutation that resists APC inactivation leading to V always being active (thrombosis risk) |
disfibrinogenemias | rare cause of bleeding from mutation in fibrinogen |
acquired bleeding disorders (two types) | autoantibodies and Vit K dependent |
anti-coagulants | calcium chelators (citrate, oxalate) and heparin |
heparin action and duration | antithrombin activation, fast acting, lasts for hours |
vit K antagonists and action | dicoumarol, warfarin, coumadin (stops vit K from being regenerated which is needed to modify clotting factors) |
PT is what | prothrombin time; a clinical lab test to measure extrinsic and common pathways; use INR (international normalized ratio) test/normal: .5 clotting risk, 1 normal, 5 bleeding risk, 10 high bleeding risk |
PTT or aPTT is what | (activated) partial thromboplastin time; a measure of the Intrnsic and common pathways; more sensative to heparin than PT; less sensative to vit K than PT |
natural anticoagulants are produced by | ticks, hookworms, vampire bats, snakes, leaches |
coumodin acts like what | VIKORCI |
vit K required enzyme | glutamyl carboxylase |
