Platelet Count
Aka: Platelet Count, Platelet, Blood Platelet- See Also
- Definitions
- Platelet
- Irregular, small ( 3um) disc shaped fragments, pieces of Megakaryocytes in the Bone Marrow
- Key component of Blood Clotting
- Platelet
- Physiology
- Platelets are generated in the Bone Marrow at a rate of 10% of total Platelet Count per day
- Aggregate at damaged blood vessels to form clot
- Cross-bridged to the vessel wall via the glycoprotein, Von Willebrand Factor
- Contain actin and myosin (found in muscle fibers)
- Allow Platelets to contract and close a vessel wall opening
- Promote Clot Formation
- Attract additional Platelets by secreting chemoattractants (ADP, Thromboxane A2)
- Produce Fibrin stabilizing factor (binds Fibrin into mesh)
- Platelet factor 3 (PF3) and phospholipids, contained in the Platelet membrane, promote Clot Formation
- Release vasoactive mediators (arachidonic acid metabolites, biogenic amines) - especially Vasoconstrictors
- Thromboxane A2
- Thromboxane A2 activates Platelets, increasing their "stickiness" in Clot Formation
- Thromboxane A2 production is dependent on the enzyme cyclooxygenase
- PGF2 alpha
- Serotonin (5-HT)
- Thromboxane A2
- Other functionality
- Phagocytosis of Antigen-Antibody complexes
- Inhibitors of Platelet aggregation and stickiness
- Aspirin
- Inhibits cyclooxygenase, reducing Thromboxane A2 levels and Clot Formation
- Platelet ADP Receptor Antagonist (e.g. Clopidogrel, Prasugrel, Ticagrelor)
- Inhibit ADP binding to Platelets and Platelet aggregation
- Glycoprotein IIB/IIIA Inhibitor (e.g. Abciximab, Tirofiban, Eptifibatide)
- Inhibit Fibrinogen and Von Willebrand Factor binding to activated Platelet Glycoprotein IIB/IIIA receptors
- Inhibits Platelet aggregation, by inhibiting Platelet binding to one another
- Dipyridamole
- Platelet Phosphodiesterase Inhibitor (PDE3 inhibitor)
- PDE3 would normally breakdown cAMP (Cyclic Adenosine monophosphate)
- Excess CAMP buildup inhibits Platelet aggregation (and also results in vasodilation)
- Aspirin
- Measures of Platelet function
- Labs: Platelet Count Normal Range
- Newborns
- Preterm: 100,000 to 300,000 per mm3
- Term: 140,000 to 300,000 per mm3

- Child: 150,000 to 450,000 per mm3
- Adults: 150,000 to 400,000/mm3
- Newborns
- Interpretation: Increased Platelet Count
- See Thrombocytosis
- Interpretation: Decreased Platelet Count
Blood Platelet Disorders (C0005818) |
|
|---|---|
| Definition (MSHCZE) | Porucha funkce trombocytů, která má obvykle za následek zvýšenou krvácivost. K dědičným poruchám patří např. Bernardův-Soulierův syndrom, Glanzmannova trombastenie, syndrom Heřmanského-Pudlákův aj. Druhotně je funkce destiček (adheze) narušena u Willebrandovy nemoci. Dále může být součástí krevních chorob (funkčně nedostatečné jsou destičky i u primární trombocytemie) i onemocnění jiných orgánů, např. ledvin či jater. Funkci krevních destiček narušují i některé léky, čehož se využívá k antiagregační léčbě. Podstatou trombocytopatie mohou být defekty povrchových glykoproteinů, inhibice enzymů (cyklooxygenázy, fosfolipázy C), nedostatečná produkce látek z destiček uvolňovaných aj. (cit.

| Definition (MEDLINEPLUS) |
Platelets are little pieces of blood cells. Platelets help wounds heal and prevent bleeding by forming blood clots. Your bone marrow makes platelets. Problems can result from having too few or too many platelets, or from platelets that do not work properly. If your blood has a low number of platelets, you can be at risk for mild to serious bleeding. If your blood has too many platelets, you may have a higher risk of blood clots. With other platelet disorders, the platelets do not work as they should. For example, in von Willebrand Disease, the platelets cannot stick together or cannot attach to blood vessel walls. This can cause excessive bleeding. Treatment of platelet disorders depends on the cause. NIH: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute |
