Term
aspirin action
Definition
anti plateletirreversibly inhibits platelet release action and cyclooxygenase which eventually creates TXA2 (increases platelet activation and aggregation (promotes GPIIb/IIIa)
Term
gpIIb/IIIa role
Definition
on platelets binds fibrinogen
Term
GpIb role
Definition
binds VWF
Term
2 ways to activate X
Definition
VIIa + tissue factor (Ca); or VIIIa, IXa, lipid and Ca
Term
Thombin activation needs
Definition
Xa +Va (Ca and phospholipid)
Term
Thrombin roles
Definition
Activates V, VIII, XIII and of course fibrin (I); when activates by thrombomodulin it can activate protein C, also directly activates platelets
Term
Dipyradamole (w/ aspirin for? w/ warfarin for?)
Definition
antiplatelet0 coronary vasodilary, interferes w/ platelet function by increasing cAMP --> inhibiting cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and or blocks adenosine uptake (both increase cAMP), most effective w/ warfarin for postoperative primary prophylaxis in patients w/ prosthetic heart valves, or in combo w/ aspirin as secondary prophylaxis in patients w/ prior strokes
Term
Ticlopidine mech, use
Definition
antiplatelet- increased cAMP by inhibiting ADP binding to it's receptor (P2Y12)- prolongs bleeding time, used for prevention of thrombosis in cerebrovascular and coronary artery disease, indicates for patients that do not do well w/ aspirin; combo w/ aspirin good b/c work separately good combo for patient undergoing angioplasty- Only approved use is to reduce risk of thrombotic stroke in patients who have experienced stroke precursors-oral
Term
Clopidgrel-what is?
Definition
anti platelet- Like ticlopidine (inhibit ADP binding it's receptor, raises cAMP) w/ a better toxicity profile (less thrombocytopenia, leukopenia), has replaced ticlopidine-oral
Term
Abciximab -use-time
Definition
humanized monocolonal antibody against gpIIb/IIa receptor (fibrinogen binder) and also vitronectin; parenteral; for use w/ coronary angioplasty to prevent coronary thromboses, works 18-24 hours-Parenteral
Term
Eptifibatide
Definition
Cyclic peptide inhibit of fibrinogen binding site on IIb/IIIa (looks like fibrin/binds receptors and blocks)- works for 6-12 hours, used for unstable angina and angioplastic ronary interventions-PARENTERAL
Term
Tirofiban
Definition
nonpeptide inhibitor that owkrs like eptifibatide (nhibit of fibrinogen binding site on IIb/IIIa)-PARENTERAL
Term
What is contact activation
Definition
When prekallikrein, HMWKinogen and XII bind collagen and activate each other, synonym for instrinsic pathway
Term
Vitamin K dependent molecules, what does K do?
Definition
K puts 10-13 gamma carboxyglutamic residues on proteases - II, VII, IX, X, protein C and protein S and protein Z (probably breaks down X)
Term
Warfarin
1. absorption- good/bad?
2. 1/2 life long short? most effective?
-can cross placenta
Definition
1. good, way better than dicumarol
2. long-36 hours, plasma protein bound, peak effect at 36-72 hours
Term
1. warfarin - how metabolized?
2. side effects
Definition
1. microsomal enzymes in liver --> bile
2. bleeding, dermatitis, skin necrosis, small intestine necrosis
Term
Phenprocumon, indandione derivates
Definition
long 1/2 life warfarin like, not used in US
Term
warfarin mechanism
random: early can increase clotting because inhibits protein C and S; also takes a while to start working (must wait for old preformed Vit K dependent cofactors to degrade) so usually heparin first (w/ warfarin to prevent pro-coagulant features) and then switch over
Definition
blocks vitamin K epoxide reductase
Term
1. heparin produced by
2. heparan sulfate?
-very very negative mucopolysaccharide
Definition
1.mast cells
2. endothelial cells, naturally preventing coagulation
Term
heparin mech of action
Definition
1. binds to antithrombin II and makes more active -antithrombin cleaves IXa, Xa and thrombin - antithrombin II binds and blocks them and then when complexed w/ thrombin it cleaves-notes say that it irreversibly inhibits
2. activates loportein lipase from endothelial cells and may also decrease platelet adhesiveness to endothelial cells
Term
AT I vs II vs III
Definition
I is when thrombin is absorbed onto fibrinogen after cleaving, II is the one that works w/ heparin, III is heparin independent
Term
1. heparin activity monitred by?
-takes 1-2 hours subcu to take effect, IV immediately
Definition
1. aPTT
Term
1. how is LMW heparin different
Definition
1. acts primarily on factor Xa,
2. more predictable pharmaokinetic profile
3. no routine requirement for lab monitoring
4. lower incidence of thrombocytopenia
Term
1. heparin side effects
Definition
1.mainly hemorrhage, thrombocytopenia, fever, osteoporosis, HSN rxn, antibody binding to complex of heparin and platelet factor 4 leading to platelet activation and aggregation --> clots
Term
1. tx w/ serious heparin induced hemorrhage
Definition
1. protamine sulfate, low MW positively harged protein binds and forms inert complex
Term
1. heparin breakdown
heparin preferred for pregnancy (stays in intravascular compartment, doesn't cross placenta)
Definition
liver metabolism and renal excretion (of heparin and it's metabolite), ie problems if renal failure
Term
fondaparinux
Definition
structure of antitorhombin binding region of heparin, inhibits factor Xa but no effect on thrombin; no need for coag monitoring, less likely side effets, give prophylactically hip/knee surgery-parenteral
Term
hirudin- action, monitor how?
Definition
thrombin inhibitor (binds binding site), v. potent, monitor by aPTT
Parenteral
Term
lepirudin - action/how excreted
Definition
recombinant derivative of hirudin, for use w/ heparin induced thrombocytopenia, excreted by kidney AKA look out renal failure- DAILY monitoring recommended
parenteral!
Term
bivalrudin
Definition
like lepirudin and hirudin
Term
argatroban - what is, how different then other like it
Definition
thrombin inhibitor, looks like arginine, binds catalytic site of thrombin (others bind catalytic and substrate recongition site) parenteral
Term
drotrecogin alpha
Definition
recombinant for of activated protein C, used for patients at risk of death from severe sepsis
Term
fibrinolysis mediated by? how activated?
Definition
1. plasmin degrades fibrin (plasminogen binds plasminogen activator-fibrin complex)
2. tPA, urokinase type PA
Term
1. what happens to free plasmin
2. why is does plasmin only act where activated
Definition
1. rapidly inactivated by a2 antiplasmin
2. b/c it is absored and restricted to use btw fibrin strands
Term
1. plasmin cleaves (5)
Definition
fibrin, factor I, V and VII and it can activate itself!
Term
excess circulating plasmin produces?
Definition
systemic lytic state
Term
1. explain first and 2nd gen thrombolytics
Definition
both are plasminogen activators - first gen not clot selective and syttem fibrinogenolysis occurs, 2nd gen bind selctively to fibrin and cause clot slective fibrionlysis
Term
1. most important agent in therapy of MI?
Definition
2nd gen thrombolytics
Term
serious cases of bleeding from thrombolytic agents stopped how? mechanism?
Definition
aminocaproic acid or tranexamic acid, bind plasmin at binding site for fibrin and stop interaction
Term
1. what does streptokinase have to do with this?
causes hemorrhage, pyrexia and allergic-anaphylic
Definition
1. non enzymatic protein that forms 1:1 complex w/ plasminogen causes fonromational changes to it and exposes active site (plasmin cleaves plasminogen --> increase)
Term
alteplase, reteplase, tenecteplase - what are, how different
Definition
alteplase is recombinant t-pa (2nd gen thrombolytic), reteplase and tenecteplase are also but slightly different w/ increased 1/2 life b/c increased resistant to inhibition by PAI-I
