Regulation of hemostatic
mechanism involves complex
interaction between vessels walls,
blood cell elements and a variety
of plasma proteins.
PLATELET STRUCTURE
Major Structure features:
A typical cell membrane.
Circumferential microtubular system
Dense tubular system
Various granules
Externally communicating open
canalicular system.
Mar 17, 2016
Platelet Membrane
Bilipid membrane and membrane protein.
Bilipid membrane around the platelet
contains several important glycoproteins
that function as surface receptors.
Bilipid membrane is also the site of
complex coagulation activities of the
platelet.
Mar 17, 2016
Granules
Dense granules contain high concentrations of
ADP and Ca as well as serotonin. These
substances are released upon PLT stimulation,
enhance PLT aggregation.
Granules store a variety of proteins that are
secreted by stimulated PLT. These includes
PF4, -thromboglobulin, PDGF, Fibrinogen, F V,
vWf and various glycoproteins important to
adhesion (thrombospondin & fibronectin)
10
Canaliculi
Open canalicular system is a complex
network of surface membrane invaginations that look like vacuoles.
Increase the PLT surface area.
The contents of PLT granules are
released through this system
11
Platelet Physiology
When a blood vessels is injured:
Subendothelial tissue is exposed.
PLT adhere to subendothelial tissue.
Adherence mediated by vWf form a
bridge between subendothelial tissue
and GP Ib.
Thrombin stimulates membrane
phospholipids to release arachidonic
acid

12
Platelet Physiology
AA is converted to cyclic endoperoxides
and TxA2.
Stimulate granules and dense bodies.
High concentration locally thrombin,
TxA2 and ADP will change GP IIb-IIIa
becomes receptor for fibrinogen to
forms a bond between adjacent PLT
creating a hemostatic plug.

Endothelium Contribution
Metabolize AA to Prostacyclin (PGI2).
PGI2 has major contribution as
antithrombotic in intact endothelium.
Low dose aspirin completely block TxA2
production.
15
Coagulation phase :
1. Conversion of fibrinogen (soluble plasma
protein) into insoluble fibrin affected
by highly specific enzymatic action of
thrombin.
Thrombin must be generated from
zymogen, prothrombin, by a series of
reactions between serine proteases, co
factors & lipid moieties.

Coagulation systems :
1. The extrinsic systems : triggered by TF/
tissue factor (complete thromboplastin).
- TF + VIIa + Ca activates F X (F Xa)
- F Xa + V + Lipid (TF) extrinsic prothrombinase (converts prothrombin
thrombin). (Fig 1).

3. Fibrin generation
When thrombin acts on the fibrinogen
molecu-le, two pairs of tiny fibrinopeptides (A
& B) are cleaved off, yielding activated fibrin
mono-mer units. The monomers polymerize
to form a loose, unstable fibrin clot, which
can be converted to a stable fibrin clot. (Fig.5)

b. Additional test
In the reptile time test, the snake venom
employed selectively cleaves fibrinopeptide A
from the fibrinogen molecule. Clotting will
proceed even though fibrinopeptide B
remains intact.
This test can be valuable because it is prolonged in the same circumstances as the TT
except that is not prolonged by the presence
of heparin.

Fibrin stabilization
Final stage of coagulation
F XIII, a transaminase, is activated by thrombin and converts the hydrogen-bonded fibrin
strands into more stable, covalent peptide
bonds. (Fig.6)
Screening test :
Deficiency of F XIIIa results in clots that
dissolve in 5M urea or 1% monochloroacetic acid.

Fibrinolysis
Deposition of fibrin is associated with activation of fibinolysis
Fibrin is a substrate for the proteolytic action
of plasmin.
Plasmin is normally present in its inactive,
zymogen form (plasminogen) in blood, urine
and other body fluids.
Plaminogen may be activated intrinsically by
the contact system of coagulation or extrinsically by TPA/tissue plasminogen activator.

34
Physiologic inhibitors
Procoagulant & fibrinolytic activities are
homeostatically regulated by counterbalancing natural inhibitors
In the coagulation system, antithrombin III inhibits not only thrombin but
other serine protease as well (F IXa,
Xa, XIa, XIIa).
