Figures

Figure 1
Figure 1
Schematic representation of the steps of coagulation factor activation (indicated by solid arrows) leading to thrombin formation and the corresponding steps of inhibition (indicated by broken arrows). Coagulation factors are represented by roman numbers. TF, tissue factor. AT, antithrombin. TM-APC-PS, thrombomodulin-activated protein C-protein S. TFPI, tissue factor pathway inhibitor.
Figure 2
Figure 2
Schematic representation of fibrinolysis steps leading to plasmin formation. Solid and broken arrows represent activators and anti-activators. HRGP, histidin-rich glycoprotein. TAFI, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor. PAI, tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor. PI, plasmin inhibitor. FXIIa, activated factor XII. tPA, tissue-type plasminogen activator. uPA, urokinase-type plasminogen activator.
