DRUGS USED INCOAGULATION

DISORDERS

MECHANISM OF BLOOD COAGULATION

Vascular endothelial cell layer lining blood vessels

• Anticoagulant phenotype

• Blood platelets and clotting factors do not normally adhere to it

In cases of vascular injury

• It undergoes change to a more procoagulant phenotype

● Platelet adherence and activation

● Secretion and synthesis of vasoconstrictors and platelet activating molecules

DRUGS USED IN COAGULATION AND BLEEDINGDISORDERS

Loading...

MECHANISM OF BLOOD COAGULATION

Thromboxane

• Synthesized from arachidonic acid within platelets

• Platelet activator and potent vasoconstrictor

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP)

• Product secreted from platelet granules

• Powerful inducer of platelet aggregation

DRUGS USED IN COAGULATION ANDBLEEDING DISORDERS

MECHANISM OF BLOOD COAGULATION

Serotonin (5 HT)

• Product secreted from platelet granules

• Stimulates aggregation and vasoconstriction

Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa

• Receptor changes its conformation upon activation of platelets enabling it tobind fibrinogen

• Cross-links adjacent platelets resulting in aggregation and platelet plugformation

MECHANISM OF BLOOD COAGULATION

Coagulation system is then activated resulting in thrombin generation andfibrin clot formation

DRUGS USED IN COAGULATIONAND BLEEDING DISORDERS

MECHANISM OF BLOOD COAGULATION

Tissue factor (TF)

• Main initiator of blood coagulation in vivo

• Expressed outside the blood vessel but not normally expressed in an activeform within the vessel

• Damaged endothelium allows binding of TF to factor VIIa (proconvertin)forming a complex

● In the presence of heparin, they are accelerated 1000-fold

DRUGS USED IN COAGULATIONAND BLEEDING DISORDERS

ANTICOAGULANTS

• Indirect thrombin inhibitors

• Mechanism and effects

Unfractionated heparin

• Provides anticoagulation immediately after administration

• Monitored with the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) or partialthromboplastin time (PTT) laboratory test

DRUGS USED IN COAGULATIONAND BLEEDING DISORDERS

ANTICOAGULANTS

• Indirect thrombin inhibitors

• Mechanism and effects

LMW heparins and fondaparinux

• Bind to ATIII

• Same inhibitory effect on factor Xa as the regular heparin-ATIII complex

• More selective action because they fail to affect thrombin (IIa)

PROPERTIES OF THROMBOLYTIC AGENTS

Agent Source Duration of Action Comments

Alteplase, reteplase,tenecteplase

Recombinant human proteins 2 – 10 min

Active tissue plasminogenactivator (t-PA); convertsplasminogen to plasmin;

intravenous infusion (alteplase)or bolus doses (reteplase,

tenecteplase). Most expensive.Reteplase and tenecteplase arelonger acting than alteplase.

AnistreplaseProdrug: streptokinase plus

recombinant humanplasminogen

1 – 2 h

Slowly relases streptokinase-activated plasminogen; singlebolus administration provides

long duration of action

Streptokinase Bacterial product 20 – 25 min

Streptokinase combined withplasminogen; the combination

converts plasminogen toplasmin; intravenous infusion

required. Least expensive

Urokinase Human cell kidney culture <20 min Active plasminogen activator

DRUGS USED IN COAGULATION AND BLEEDING DISORDERS

THROMBOLYTIC AGENTS

• Clinical use

• Emergency treatment of coronary artery thrombosis

● Under ideal conditions (within 6 h)

● Prompt recanalization of the occluded vessel

● Very prompt use (within 3 h of the first symptoms) in patients withischemic stroke

● Significantly better clinical outcome

● Used in cases of multiple pulmonary emboli
