Summary Introduction

To review:

The role of antithrombin-III, heparin sulfate, and protein C in hemostasis.

Introduction:

                    

Hemostasis is a process in which the bleeding from wounds is stopped. During this process, the wound and the bleeding attract platelets to aggregate and forms clot. The platelets then move to the injured location and collectaround the bleeding blood vessel. This process is highly regulated by various chemicals and proteins.
