|
Definition
Liver makes all the co-agulation factors. These are proteolytic enzymes and self cleave themselves. |

Term
How platelets work and what activated platelets secrete? |
|
Definition
Platelets are flat and after collagen of the damaged cell is exposed, the adapt different shapes and form platelet plug. The platelets secrete ADP. |

How the white cells move and stick? |
|
Definition
the cells move along the endothelial and squeeze through a gap to get to the inflammation. The cells undergoes adhesion and migration. Have different adhesion proteins which work different from cell to cell. |

Term
Explain JAK/STAT mechanism |
|
Definition
JAK is protein which undergoes phosphorylation. JAK kinase autophosphrylate each other. Similar to EGF. STAT protein recognize JAK proteins and phosphorylates them. Intercellular signaling for cytokines. |
