Platelet Aggregation:

Aggregation is adherence of ... to injured vessels and to each other.

ADP and thromboxane A2
ADP
Fibrinogen
Platelet aggregation (cont.):

Collagen at injury site and first thrombin formed activate platelets

Thrombin acts on the bound fibrinogen to produce fibrin monomers

Fibrin monomers polymerize to form the ‘...’

Thrombin acts directly on platelets to activate them via a specific platelet membrane receptor
Thromboplastin

Secretions by platelets:

After adhesion platelets begin to release contents of ... and ...

what factor does not require activation?
III (tissue factor)
Intrinsic pathway starts with activation of Factor ... by contact with negatively charged surface (collagen)

Extrinsic pathway starts with ... (released by platelets) and Factor ...

Pathways intersect at Activation of Factor ...
Many steps require ... as a cofactor
Factor ... is not a serine protease: it cross-links fibrin by transamidation.

Role of Vitamin K
The proteolytic activation of Factors VII, IX, X and II (...) requires prior carboxylation of glutamate within the liver before release into the circulation.

Inhibitory regulation:

Protein C and Protein S form an activated complex.

APC attaches its Protein S part to platelet PLs

APC destroys Factors ... and ... by proteolysis
