Under normal conditions what does the endothelium do to prevent coagulation? 5
|
1. maintenance of transmural electrical charge, which prevents adhesion
2. Releases Prostacyclin (PGI2) 3. Activate Protein C 4. Produces proteoglycans similar to heparin. 5. Releases plasminogen activators |
|
What can you get from Arachidonic acid that matters here?
How? what do products do? |
Both via cyclooxygenase 1
PGI2: platelet disaggregation and vasodilation TXA2: Platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction |
|
Three phases of hemostasis
|
1. vascular
2. platelet 3. coagulation |
|
What's up with GP IIb/IIa?
|
They're integrins on the surface of platelets. Calcium-dependent association of IIb and IIa is required for proper platelet aggregation.
|
|
Antiplatelet Drugs
|
1. Aspirin
2. Dipyridamole 3. Ticlopidine and Clopidogrel 4. GP IIb/IIa Inhibitors Abciximab Eptifibatide Tirofiban |
|
How does Aspirin Work?
|
It blocks platelet cyclooxygenase which leads to decreased synthesis of TXA2. Good for reducing risk of infarction
|
|
How does Dipyridamole work?
|
Vasodilator via inhibiting PDE and increasing cAMP.
Good only Combined with warfarin |
|
How do Ticlopidine and Clopidogrel work?
|
Inhibit binding of ADP to its receptor, thus increasing cAMP.
Good alt. to aspirin or good with aspirin |
|
what's up with abciximab?
|
monoclonal AB screws up aggregation
|
|
what's up with eptifibatide and tirofiban?
|
Fibrinogen mimetics that screw with aggregation.
|
|
How does Vitamin K work?
|
It places residues on the coag factors(2, 7, 9, 10) and proteins (C/S/Z) which are essential to link them to phospholipids via Ca.
|
|
Vitamin K Antagonists!
how do they work? why are they good? adverse rxn? |
Warfarin! its a structural analog to K so it blocks the addition of all those residues.
YOU CAN TAKE IT ORALLY! hemorrhage, dermatitis, SI necrosis |
|
Where does Heparin come from?
|
Mast Cells in animals (how we get the drug)
Naturally in our liver, lungs, and intestines |
|
What does heparin require to work?
|
ANTITHROMBIN!
|
|
How does Heparin work?
|
it accelerates activity of AntiThrombin on thrombin, 9 and 10
|
|
How is heparin metabolized?
|
not absorbed through GI, but by cells of RES, so you gotta inject it or IV it
|
|
how can you inhibit heparin?
|
Protamine Sulfate
|
|
how do you reverse effects of warfarin?
|
VITAMIN K!
|
|
Other Parenteral Anticoagulant?
|
Fondaparinux: synthetic heparin derivative. Only goes after 10
|
|
NEW DRUGS
|
LEPIRUDIN, BIVALIRUDIN, AND ARGATROBAN
All act against Thrombin DROTRECOGIN ALFA impostor protein C that inhibits V and VIII |
|
Inhibitor of thrombolytic drugs?
|
Aminocaproic Acid-Tranexamic Acid
|
|
Thrombolytic Drugs
|
STREPTOKINASE: exposes active site of plasminogen
UROKINASE: directly activates plasminogen TISSUE TYPE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR: Alteplase, reteplase, Tenecteplase |
