Inhibitor
fibrin
fibrin degradation products
Activator: Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), urokinase.
Plasmin, a serine protease, is inhibited by 2-antiplasma.
• tPA:
– Released from vascular endothelial cells following
injury;
– Binds to fibrin and is consequently activated.
• Urokinase:
– Produced as the precursor, prourokinase by
epithelial cells lining excretory ducts.
– Role: to activate the dissolution of fibrin clots.
• plasminogen activator-inhibitors:
– PAI-1 and PAI-2
Endothelial cells
• Endothelium produces several inhibitors of hemostasis:
– Prostaglandin I2:
• secreted by endothelial cells and is a potent inhibitor of platelet
aggregation.
– Thrombomodulin:
• Enhances the activiation of protein C by thrombin and results in
the inactivation of factor V and VIII.
– Heparans:
• a heparin-like molecule, produced by endothelial cells. Increase
the anticoagulant effect of antithrombin III.
– Plasminogen activator:
• necessary for dissolution of fibrin clots, such as tPA.
Coagulation disorders
• Hemophilia A:
– Deficiency of FVIII. The disease severity usually
parallels the factor VIII levels.
– Serve (< 1% VIII): with spontaneous bleeding;
– Moderate (1-5% VIII): with occasional bleeding, usually
with trauma;
– Mild (6-30% VIII): with bleeding only after surgery or
trauma.
– Therapy: administration of FVIII.
• Hemophilia B (Christmas Disease):
– FIX deficiency.
– Treatment requires IX-rich material: fresh frozen
plasma (FFP) or lyophilized concentrates
proagulatant proteins.
• Decreased production of coagulation factors:
– E.g. Liver disease, vitamin K malabsorption, dietary
deficiency of vitamin K.
• Inactivation of coagulation factors:
– e.g. specific inhibitors, excessive activation of
coagulation (DIC) and/or enzymatic destruction of
coagulation factors.
Blood grouping and transfusion
• The discovery of blood groups:
– 1901, Austrian Karl Landsteiner
discovered human blood groups.
– Blood agglutination was an
immunological reaction.
– Awarded the Nobel Prize in
Physiology or Medicine in 1930.
• Agglutination:
– Agglutinogen: antigen on membrane
of RBC.
– Agglutinin: antibody in the plasma.
• RBC grouping:
– ABO, Rh, MnSs, lewis
– The differences in human blood are
due to the presence or absence of
certain protein molecules called
antigens and antibodies.
ABO grouping
Blood group A:A antigens on the surface of RBC,
B antibodies in blood plasma.
Blood group B:B antigens on the surface of RBC,
A antibodies in blood plasma.
Blood group AB:both A and B antigens on the
surface of RBC, no A or B antibodies at all in blood
plasma.
Blood group O:neither A or B antigens on the surface
of RBC, but you have both A and B antibodies in blood
plasma
• Antigens and antibodies:
– Antigens:
• A, B.
• Carbohydrate
– Antibodies: Antibody A and B.
• Ig M: congenital,
• Bigger Mr.
Rh grouping
• Original discovery:
– Rhesus monkey: Red cells injected into rabbits got
serum injected back to Rhesus monkey, or human
agglutination happens.
• Rh antigen and antibody
– Antigen: D, E, C, c, e.
• 99% Chinese people are Rh+
• Minority in China 2-5% is Rh• 15% western people are Rh– Antibody: IgG
Which blood group do you belong to?
A Rh+
B Rh+
AB Rh+
O Rh+
A Rh-
B Rh-
AB Rh-
O Rh-
Blood Transfusion
• Clinical significance:
– ABO and Rh blood groups must be compatible between
the donor blood and the patient blood.
– Agglutinated RBC clog blood vessels or crack to
becomes toxic when HB outside the cell.
• Cross-match test:
– Main lateral: donor’s RBC and recipient’s serum.
– Co-lateral: donor’s serum and recipient’s RBC.
• Principle of blood transfusion:
– Agglutination of main lateral: absolutely no.
– Both of main and co-lateral do not agglutinate:
– Co-lateral agglutinates but Main lateral:
• slow and less amount of blood transfusion could be recommended.
People with blood group O are called
“universal donors”.
People with blood group AB are called
“universal receivers”.
• Clinical importance for Rh group:
– Blood transfusion between Rh+ and Rh- persons.
– A mother who is Rh- woman give birth a baby who
is Rh+.
– Preventive measure: given an injection of anti-Rh
antibodies.
