  1. I (fibrinogen) Forms clot (fibrin)

    II (prothrombin) Its active form (IIa) activates I, V, VIII, XI, XIII, protein C, platelets

    Tissue factor Co-factor of VIIa (formerly known as factor III)

    Calcium Required for coagulation factors to bind to phospholipid (formerly known as factor IV)

    V (proaccelerin, labile factor) Co-factor of X with which it forms the prothrombinase complex

    VI Unassigned – old name of Factor Va

    VII (stable factor) Activates IX, X

    VIII (antihemophilic factor) Co-factor of IX with which it forms the tenase complex

    IX (Christmas factor) Activates X: forms tenase complex with factor VIII

    X (Stuart-Prower factor) Activates II: forms prothrombinase complex with factor V

    XI (plasma thromboplastin antecedent) Activates IX

    XII (Hageman factor) Activates factor XI and prekallikrein

    XIII (fibrin-stabilizing factor) Crosslinks fibrin

    von Willebrand factor Binds to VIII, mediates platelet adhesion

    prekallikrein Activates XII and prekallikrein; cleaves HMWK

    high molecular weight kininogen (HMWK) Supports reciprocal activation of XII, XI, and prekallikrein

    fibronectin Mediates cell adhesion

    antithrombin III Inhibits IIa, Xa, and other proteases;

    heparin cofactor II Inhibits IIa, cofactor for heparin and dermatan sulfate ("minor antithrombin")

    protein C Inactivates Va and VIIIa

    protein S Cofactor for activated protein C (APC, inactive when bound to C4b-binding protein)

    protein Z Mediates thrombin adhesion to phospholipids and stimulates degradation of factor X by ZPI

    Protein Z-related protease inhibitor (ZPI) Degrades factors X (in presence of protein Z) and XI (independently)

    plasminogen Converts to plasmin, lyses fibrin and other proteins

    alpha 2-antiplasmin Inhibits plasmin

    tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) Activates plasminogen

    urokinase Activates plasminogen

    plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI1) Inactivates tPA & urokinase (endothelial PAI)

    plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI2) Inactivates tPA & urokinase (placental PAI)

    cancer procoagulant Pathological factor X activator linked to thrombosis in cancer


  2. 1.I (fibrinogen)

    Forms clot (fibrin)

    2.II (prothrombin)

    Its active form (IIa) activates I, V, VIII, XI, XIII, protein C, platelets

    3.Tissue factor

    Co-factor of VIIa (formerly known as factor III)

    4.Calcium

    Required for coagulation factors to bind to phospholipid (formerly known as factor IV)

    5.V (proaccelerin, labile factor)

    Co-factor of X with which it forms the prothrombinase complex

    6.VI

    Unassigned – old name of Factor Va

    7.VII (stable factor)

    Activates IX, X

    8.VIII (antihemophilic factor)

    Co-factor of IX with which it forms the tenase complex

    9.IX (Christmas factor)

    Activates X: forms tenase complex with factor VIII

    10.X (Stuart-Prower factor)

    Activates II: forms prothrombinase complex with factor V

    11.XI (plasma thromboplastin antecedent)

    Activates IX

    12.XII (Hageman factor)

    Activates factor XI and prekallikrein

    13.XIII (fibrin-stabilizing factor)

    Crosslinks fibrin
