vWF | van Willebrand Factor, procoagulant, binds and prevents degradation of factor VIII. Platelets activate membrane receptors. Circulating and in subendothelium |

Ca++ Ions | required for thrombus formation, in plasma phase of hemostasis |
PF3 | Platelet Factor 3 , needed for plasma phase of hemostasis |
Factor I | fibrinogen, protein from liver |
Factor II | prothrombin, protein from liver, requires Vitamin K |
Factor III | Tissue Factor, lipoprotein from damaged tissue/activated platelets. activates VII, which activates X. enters blood from outside |
Factor IV | Ca++ ion, from bone, diet, platelets |
Factor V | Proaccelerin, protein, from liver platelets |
Factor VI | no longer used |
Factor VII | Proconvertin, protein, from liver, requires Vitamin K, activates X, extrinsic pathway |
Factor VIII | antihemophilic, protein factor (AHF), from platelets and endothelial cells |
Factor IX | plasma thromboplastin, protein factor, from liver requires vitamin K |
Factor X | Stuart-Power Factor, protein, from liver requires vitamin K, prothrombinase, where extrinsic and intrinsic pathways meet |
Factor XI | plasma thromboplastin, protein antecedent (PTA), from liver |
Factor XII | Hageman factor, protein, from liver, activated when it contacts subendothelial tissues |
Factor XIII | Fibrin-stabilizing, protein factor (FSF), enzyme from liver and platelets, stabilizes clot by cross-linking fibrin strands |
Vitamin K | required for liver to synthesize Factors II, VII, IX, X |
Hemophilia A | lack of VIII, dependent on vWF, sex linked, males are active expressers, females are heterozygous |
Hemophilia B | |
Hemophilia A | lack of VIII, dependent on vWF, sex linked, males are active expressers, females are heterozygous |
Hemophilia B | lack of factor IX, what ended up in the Romanov family |
Hemophilia C | lack of factor X, not sex linked, almost always found of eastern European/Jewish decent |
Thrombin | Factor II, strongly stimulates earlier portions of the cascade, positive feedback loops. catalyzes polymerization of fibrin |
Antithrombin III | inhibits many clotting factors, most notably X and II, protein from liver , paired with herparin affect Factors II and X |
Thrombomodulin | membrane protein in endothelial cells, binds with thrombin to decrease level of thrombin and inhibit clotting |
Protein C | thrombomodulin-thrombin complex activates protein C which combines with protein S, inactivating factors V and VIII |
Plasmin | active form of plasminogen, activated by XI, XII, tissue plasminogen activator. promotes fribrinolysis |
Clot Busters | frequently proteolytic enzymes that cleave fibrin and allow trapped cells to escape |
Aldosterone | steroid hormone from zona glomerulosa regulates K+ |
Cytokines | produced by non-classically endocrine organs or tissues |
Amino Acid Derivative Hormones | tryptophan, tyrosine = catecholamines, peptides. Derived from amino acids |
Lipid Derivative Hormones | steroid hormones, eicosinoids |
Eicosinoids | derivatives of membrane phospholipids , parent molecule is arachidonic acid. Four eicosinoids: prostaglandins, thromboxanes, prostacyclins, leukotrienes |
Steroid Hormones | cholesterol is parent compound |
Phospholipase A | acts on membrane phospholipids to produce arachidonic acid. |
Arachidonic Acid | parent molecule for eicosinoids |
Cyclooxygenases | eicosinoids by COX-1 and COX-2 pathways: prostaglandins, prostacyclins, thromboxanes |
Lipoxygenase | leukotrienes, not produced by endocrine organs |
Leukotrienes | involved in asthmatic and allergic reactions and act to sustain inflammatory reactions |
Amino Acid and Peptide Hormones | functional <1 hour, usually not complexed with transport protein, quickly degraded: hydrophilic, lipophobic, and polar. not membrane diffusable |
Thyroid and Steroid Hormones | circulate much longer, >99% become attached to transport protein thus larger reserve in blood: hydrophobic, lipophilic, and nonpolar. membrane diffusable |
Parathyroid Hormone | from parathyroid principle (chief) cells, increases Ca++ blood concentration, targets kidney, and bone |
Melatonin | from pineal pinealocytes and a derivative of amino acid tryptophan, from when it gets dark. has antioxidant activity and immune function |
ADH | peptide neurohormone, known as vasopressin, from posterior pituitary, targets kidney for blood volume and pressure |
Oxytocin | neurohormone, from posterior pituitary, target tissues not endocrine, primary effects parturition and lactation |
Tropic Hormones | control activity of other endocrine glands |
Six Hormones from Anterior Pituitary | ACTH (adrenocortico-tropic hormone), TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone), LH (leutinizing hormone), FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), prolactin, GH (growth hormone) |
Thyroglobulin | synthesized by follicular cells, precursor to thyroid hormones, stored in follicle as a gelatinous colloid |
T3 | triiodothyronine, made from tyrosine and iodine, stimulates growth related processes in general and osteogenesis in particular. receptor located in nucleus or cytoplasm |
T4 | thyroxine, from tyrosine and iodine, converted to T3 in blood |
Thyroid Binding Globulin (TBG) | transports T3 |
Calcitonin | made in parafollicular/C cells, targets bone/kidneys, decreases Ca concentrations in body fluids, opposed by PTH |
ACTH | adrencorticotropic hormone, targets adrenal gland zona fasciculata, increases cortisol |
Cortisol | promotes gluconeogenesis, has effects on immune system |
CRH | corticotropin releasing hormone, stimulates ACTH to go to kidney to increase cortisol |
DHEA | dehydroepiandrosterone, primary androgen secreted by zona reticularis, a steroid precursor to testosterone, calls for secondary sex characteristics in males |
hGH | somatotropin, direct effects are anabolic, releasing energy, and stimulating growth, indirect effects mediated by somatomedins |
Somatomedins | liver hormones stimulated by hGH |
IGF-1 | insulin-like growth factor, most important somatomedin, associated with osteogenesis, strong effect on cartilage, bone, and skeletal muscle growth |
