Vessels Coagulation Proteins Platelets Fibrinolysis/Inhibitors Homeostasis State of fluid equilibrium within the blood vessels
Hemostasis • Arrest of bleeding • Events preventing excessive blood loss • Vascular spasm: Vasoconstriction of damaged blood vessels • Platelet plug formation • Coagulation or blood clotting
Functions of Blood • Transport of: • Gases, nutrients, waste products • Processed molecules • Regulatory molecules • Regulation of pH and osmosis • Maintenance of body temperature • Protection against foreign substances • Clot formation
HEMOSTASIS • VASCULAR SPASM • PLATELET PLUG • BLOOD COAGULATION (will talk later) • GROWTH OF FIBROUS TISSUE IN CLOT • Fibrinolysis (will talk later)
What is thrombosis? • Thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system • When a thrombus occupies more than 75% of cross-sectional area of the lumen of an artery, blood flow to the tissue supplied is reduced enough to cause of symptoms because of decreased oxygen supply and accumulation of lactic acid. • More than 90% obstruction can result in anoxi, complete deprivation of oxygen, and the infarction , a mode of cell death
Thrombosis • Arterial Thrombosis : • Adherence of platelets to arterial walls - White in color - Often associated with MI, stroke and ischemia • Venous Thrombosis : • Develops in areas of stagnated blood flow (deep vein thrombosis), Red in color- Associated with Congestive Heart Failure, Cancer, Surgery.
Haemostasis: • Vasoconstriction • Platelet activation • Haemostatic plug • Coagulation • Stable clot formation • Clot dissolution
BLOOD COAGULATION Thrombin Fibrin Monomers Fibrinogen Ca+2, factor XIII Fibrin threads
Coagulation: • Fibrinogen to Fibrin – Coag. Cascade • Several factors – proenzymes-activation. • Enzyme amplication – • Plasma, Endothelium & Platelets • Stable hemostatic plug. • Clot lysis – starts soon after clot formation.

How do we know platelets are important in CVD? • Platelets are present in atherosclerosis, thrombosis, embolism i.e. at early and late stages of cardiovascular disease • Activated platelets are present in circulation of patients with cardiovascular disease • Modification of platelet activity affects the development and progression of cardiovascular disease
Platelets in cardiovascular disease • What are Platelets? • Role in Health : how do they work? • Role in Disease • bleeding disorders • atherosclerosis • arterial thrombosis • thrombo-embolism • Techniques for the study of platelets • Anti-platelet Therapy in Cardiovascular Disease
Normal Function of Platelets • Haemostasis • Preventing bleeding from wounds • Integrity and repair of the vessel wall
Haemostatic role of platelets in health: how do they work? • Platelets circulate in a resting, inactive state • Must become activated • Must stick together = Aggregation
