Comprehensive Analysis of Procoagulant Platelets Exhibiting Features of Necrosis, Apoptosis and Platelet Activation
Published on: May 23, 2025
Abstract:
This review retraces the current state of knowledge on Annexin A2 and A5 functions causing thrombophilia. Thrombophilia is multifactorial inherited hypercoagulable state, promoted by multiple gen-gen and gen-environmental factors. Abnormalities of placenta in intervillous spacies and horion vessels are discussed as venous thrombosis. The cause of adverse pregnancy outcome is still unknown, etiological up to 50% of cases. Understanding of function of sequence variations in potencial risk factors annexins A2 and A5 could precise estimation of individual risk and should guide the adequate prophylaxis among pregnant women.

Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which forms a...
Coagulation
During the coagulation phase, clotting factors, or procoagulants, play a vital role in initiating and progressing the coagulation cascade. This cascade is a series of reactions...
