00:01 All right, y'all, let's see we can do here. Um

00:05 we're continuing with the uh heart, last little bit about the heart,

00:09 we're going straight into blood and blood , is pretty straightforward. I

00:14 So if I talk fast, maybe get out of here quick. I

00:18 , I don't know. Uh First we wanna do is we wanna talk

00:21 uh just the contraction of the, uh cardiac muscle and what regulates

00:26 So, does this all look familiar you? Does this look like something

00:28 seen before? Yes. No, kind of, did that look kind

00:34 familiar? So this is just like muscle. The only difference here is

00:38 have a Dyad instead of a This is not the uh the terminal

00:43 , it's just sarcoplasmic curriculum. Second I'd point out here is calcium doesn't

00:49 come from the sarcoplasmic curriculum. It comes from the outside of the cell

00:53 well. And so you can see have pump systems that are pumping calcium

00:57 of the cell as well as into sarcoplasmic reticulum. But otherwise the contraction

01:01 the same. I did want to something out here just because I like

01:05 give you guys a little bit of nudge or a heads. Uh,

01:08 mean, like a step ahead of else across the country, you

01:11 and give you much more harder But, um, I'm gonna point

01:15 uh some regulators. So, what we have here is if I

01:20 to increase the rate of relaxation, I'm gonna do is I'm gonna phosphor

01:24 inhibitors, right? So there there are things that slow down

01:29 any system you have, we, don't really talk about them all,

01:32 that much but any system you you have regulators both positive and

01:35 And so in this case, we're about inhibitors and we have one

01:39 it's called phosphor labin. And if look here on the map, there

01:42 phosphor labin notice that it's associated with sarcoplasmic reticulum. It's associated with

01:47 it is an inhibitor of circa. , if I am, um if

01:51 inhibiting circa, that means I'm not uh the calcium away from the

01:57 So that means there's more calcium If there's more calcium available, I'm

02:02 a contraction, right? So basically heart slows down because of that sustained

02:07 , you get the contraction lasting And so if I phosphor that what

02:11 doing is I'm phosphorylation, the So I'm inhibiting the inhibitor. Does

02:17 make sense? So there's a lot double negatives here. So if I

02:22 phosphor lain, I'm no longer inhibiting . So what do I do is

02:26 increase the rate at which I go into relaxation. So that would be

02:30 example. Another one is troponin. we talked about uh troponin. We

02:35 really go in a lot of detail the three sub units, but there

02:38 three sub units. One binds up , right? One binds up tropy

02:44 the other one is the hinge portion that hinge portion is uh there to

02:50 of inhibit, that's why it's called eye that inhibits the contraction. So

02:53 I phosphor that it's going to increase the rate at which I release the

02:59 , which when I release the what did that do? Brings the

03:02 back into place? So basically, causing relaxation to occur. So the

03:08 here is that there are ways that inhibit this process and I'm just showing

03:12 two of these ways right here. I want to do is I want

03:16 deal with stroke volume. All we've talked about it in a

03:19 very brief way. We said cardiac is equal to what I mean.

03:26 gotta remember stuff, week to Yeah, I'm gonna help you

03:30 Cardiac output is equal to heart rate . There you go. All

03:36 which is not art. All And so the question here is what

03:39 the things that actually affect stroke what increases or decreases the amount of

03:44 my heart is pumping and there are different ways that we can look at

03:47 . All right. First, we're to ask what's coming to the

03:50 right? What are the things that the blood, turning to the

03:53 Secondly, what are those things that the contractility of the heart? And

03:58 third thing is what is the after ? What is preventing blood from leaving

04:03 heart? So that's afterload. So gonna look at preload. How do

04:06 regulate or what is the afterload? is resisting uh that movement? And

04:13 there's a lot of words on these . Good news. You don't have

04:17 read all the words. I'm gonna give it to you in a

04:19 All right, preload. This is the blood is doing coming back to

04:24 heart. All right. So if have veins and they have blood in

04:28 , if I want more blood to to the heart, what do I

04:30 to the veins? What do you ? Do I dilate them or constrict

04:35 if I want more blood to return the heart? So think of

04:38 we haven't talked about veins, what do. But if I have just

04:41 of a tube, if I if I have fluid in a tube

04:44 I want to get the fluid out the tube, what do I

04:48 I, I squeeze it right. what would happen is that blood has

04:52 go in the direction that, that only allowed to go. All

04:55 And so it pushes towards the So now the heart just received a

04:59 bunch of blood. All right, is Venus return. Ok. So

05:04 heart goes, what do I do all this? Now, the good

05:08 is there were two scientists who are the heart and trying to figure out

05:14 does the heart work and what they was, hey, the heart actually

05:19 care of itself. It doesn't need sort of external signal or anything to

05:24 with the extra fluid that comes to . And ba basically what that graph

05:28 showing you, there is basically their and really what it is is they

05:32 up with this rule, they call the Frank Starling law. So Frank

05:34 Starling were the two guys. All . And this is the gist of

05:37 Frank Starling law, the blood what the blood receives. I'll say

05:45 again, the blood pumps, what receives. So if I give it

05:47 blood, the pump, the heart that blood, if I give it

05:53 blood, the heart pumps less So there's this natural relationship. So

06:00 you can remember that you're good to . So if I increase the amount

06:04 blood by squeezing the Venus side of system, and more blood returns back

06:10 the heart that doesn't cause problems. increases how much the heart will

06:16 So, increasing blood flow, increases volume, decreasing blood flow from the

06:24 side, decreases stroke volume. All , that's the relationship. And really

06:30 , what you're dealing with here is end volume. Because if you

06:34 we said, hey, stroke volume here is equal to two things.

06:37 difference between two things. Do you what those two things were? End

06:43 volume and end diastolic volume. And at the end of diastole, what

06:49 I doing? That's my, that's much I've ejected out. And so

06:53 that blood has to go all the back around and it's pushing and filling

06:58 right before. So what you're looking here is you're increasing the amount of

07:02 showing up in the atria and then just gonna flow on in and that's

07:06 we're dealing with there. Ok. remember the hard thing to remember is

07:10 whole thing is connected. So if pushing stuff out stuff has to come

07:13 . All right. So Frank Very simple. The blood pumps,

07:17 you give it kind of nice even there's a lot of words up there

07:22 the back side, we have the . All right, the afterload is

07:26 back pressure. Ok? You know back pressure is? Give you an

07:32 . Simple one. You're filling up balloon if you don't pinch off the

07:39 , what's the air gonna wanna it's gonna wanna come back,

07:43 Because the elastic walls of the balloon creating a pressure inward and that air

07:48 just trying to find the quickest way of that, that space. We're

07:52 have to learn about that pressure here little bit when we start talking about

07:55 lungs. All right. So every you push fluid into the aorta or

08:03 fluid into the pulmonary arteries, those are stretching and then they're creating a

08:11 . Now, what that pressure is gonna do is it's gonna drive the

08:14 forward, but it's just looking for way to flow. And so when

08:19 heart pumps, right, it's pushing out of the ventricles, it's going

08:24 feel that pressure, it's a back . So the greater that pressure,

08:29 less blood is going to be able leave the heart. Does that make

08:33 ? Right. Do you remember that example? I gave a little while

08:37 about trying to fill up the smart with kid with students, right?

08:41 more people you put in the smart , the less it's gonna be likely

08:44 you're gonna get the next person right? Because there's a back pressure

08:49 that's the same thing that's going on when we talk about high blood pressure

08:53 making the heart work harder. This what you're trying to overcome is a

08:57 pressure. Put another way you have five liters of blood in your

09:02 In circulation, the heart is only about 70 mils of that a portion

09:07 it probably about 1/5 is in pulmonary . So in systemic circulation, you

09:14 about four liters of blood that the is actually pushing forward 70 out of

09:18 heart, plus the the rest of blood that goes throughout all your

09:22 That is creating a back pressure that have to overcome Now, and helping

09:29 this value, this amount of back is more or less constant. So

09:33 , that's just part of the pumping , right? Ok. I've got

09:36 push all this blood forward. But you have issues, that's what we're

09:41 about. That's what the high blood is. That's why it's so problematic

09:45 it makes your heart work too hard that can cause problems right.

09:51 if the A load goes up, that's gonna do is that's gonna result

09:55 an increased ESV. Now, why ? Why in systolic volume?

10:00 when the heart contracts, we call , what's the other word for

10:06 Systole? And the in systolic volume the amount of blood left inside the

10:13 at the end of systole ESV. ? So if I have greater back

10:21 , less blood leaves a heart that or increases ESV. All right,

10:27 I increase ESV, again, the , right, it's the difference between

10:33 NTO and the in systolic volume. if ESV goes up and EDV stays

10:38 same, same number minus a bigger is a smaller number. So stroke

10:45 is affected so far. Does that of make sense? Kind of sort

10:52 my goodness. He's using big words abbreviations and I am confused. All

10:58 . Yes, sort of. Look at the third thing inotropic agents

11:05 excuse me, not, not, inotropic, inotropic inotropic agents. These

11:09 those external factors, those extrinsic factors can affect the, the activity of

11:15 heart. So when I see someone , my heart beats faster.

11:20 all right, that's autonomic innovation. that affect stroke volume? Yes,

11:26 does. All right. Uh different can affect stroke volume. We're gonna

11:31 about those hormones a little bit Um after contraction, what we're gonna

11:37 here is um or we're not after , but we're gonna alter contraction.

11:41 , um when I exercise and run heart beats harder, right? And

11:46 I eject more at the same So these are things that have an

11:52 on the ability of the heart to the amount of blood that it's gonna

11:55 both positive and negatively. So if a positive inotrope, what we're doing

11:59 we're increasing the availability of calcium. means I'm gonna get harder pumps,

12:04 gonna get faster pumps. All but it's the that stronger pump.

12:08 do you think a stronger pump can an afterload? Like a constant

12:13 What do you think? Yeah, should. Does that make sense?

12:17 mean, you got, I just like the expression of a couple of

12:20 like what now? Right. So I, if I have resistance and

12:24 am pushing harder against that resistance, that resistance gonna more likely to move

12:29 if I Yeah, so that's, what we're saying here. All

12:32 So that's number one. Um So got some examples up there. So

12:36 you know, adrenaline nor norepinephrine. , sympathetic innervation is an example.

12:41 hormone increases the availability of beta one . And so that's gonna increase the

12:48 the activity of the sympathetic side. are certain drugs you can take that

12:53 do that as well. And then negative inotrope, not iono trope um

12:58 the negative inotrope is gonna decrease calcium . So you get softer heartbeats,

13:04 hard ones. All right. Those overcome after load, but they change

13:09 contract, the the contract ail of heart. In other words, it

13:12 down the heart and P and pumps heart pumps less. So you can

13:17 here that we have things that can it outside of the two systems on

13:23 side. So, preload deals with Venus return, ok? So blood

13:32 to heart, Venus return, afterload with arterial pressure. So blood leaving

13:39 heart, right. Frank Starling says does what pumps what you give it

13:48 . And then knowing ESV and E , what am I altering? So

13:54 I'm dealing with preload, I'm altering . When I'm dealing with afterload,

13:58 dealing with ESV. Right? And can just play with the math SV

14:03 EDV minus ESV. That's not right? And just say what happens

14:08 I increase or decrease this and you see how it affects stroke volume.

14:11 lastly, I have external factors that body uses external to the heart that

14:17 affect the contractility of the heart, can affect stroke volume. All

14:24 A simple one. If you drink six monster drinks, what's that gonna

14:27 to your heart? Hummingbird, OK. There you go. All

14:34 . If we're comfortable with that, hope we are. That was gonna

14:37 the last thing we were talking about week. Let's go through blood.

14:40 right, blood is a connective It's a specialized connective tissue. It's

14:44 weird one. It's the only connective tissue. Um It is a

14:49 of three things. All right, have what are called the formed

14:53 The formed elements we use formed element of cells because we're dealing with mostly

14:58 . But some of the things that would call cells are altered cells and

15:03 they're not entirely cells anymore. So we call them the elements.

15:07 also a matrix in there and a is simply a bunch of, of

15:12 and other materials that form uh an in a connective tissue. So plasma

15:18 the matrix of the blood plasma consists all these different types of, of

15:23 which we're gonna kind of go looking . Um generally speaking, in connective

15:29 , connective tissues, the cells in matrix are responsible for making the

15:34 But that's not what happens in connective or in, in the, in

15:38 blood. Uh it's called blood because its, I mean, blood is

15:41 connective tissue because of its embryological I'm not gonna ask you that.

15:45 just so if you ever said, , I don't understand why it's a

15:47 tissue. That's why it's just its . All right. Now, if

15:52 leave blood and take out the coagulating , what will happen is is that

15:57 will see the formed elements, the stuff will basically float out of solution

16:02 they'll like land at the bottom of container, right? So you'll see

16:06 blood cells and other things kind of themselves out just by virtue of

16:10 of their size and mass. All . And so this doesn't happen in

16:16 body because blood is in constant So if you were to take some

16:21 of solution, let's just make it simple one. If you take Kool

16:24 and dump it into a glass, Kool Aid crystals will float to the

16:28 , won't they? Some of them suspend or dissolve, but most of

16:31 will just float to the bottom. how do you prevent that from

16:34 Shake, shake, shake, shake and they will stay in suspension

16:38 the time. All right. And part of the reason our blood is

16:42 while it's heterogeneous in this or it's in the sense that we have equal

16:47 stuff. The reason for that homogeneity um is because you're in constant motion

16:52 constant circulation. So nothing's ever allowed really settle. When we look at

16:59 , we can separate it out into parts. We have what is called

17:03 hematocrit. The hematocrit is the packed volume. So typically, uh

17:09 what we're saying, when we say is we are really referring to the

17:13 of erythrocytes, right, the amount red blood cells. So this will

17:17 between 42 and 45% sometimes incorrectly, more commonly than needs to be is

17:25 will refer to the pack cell meaning the Buffy coat as well.

17:30 Buffy coat would be part two. Buffy coat are your leukocytes and your

17:35 , it makes up a very small about 1%. So if you were

17:39 take a blood sample centrifuged out, can actually cause all those heavy things

17:44 kind of press on down. And , rather than waiting for it to

17:48 out, you can push them And so you'd see the red,

17:50 red blood cells, which are the than the white blood cells in that

17:53 coat and then the plasma would remain on top. The hematic crit normally

17:58 refers to red blood cells, but they include the Buffy coat. All

18:06 , on the test. If I it on there, if it says

18:09 presume red blood cells, because that's correct definition. OK. Now,

18:19 hematocrit is to be uh change depending your age and your sex. I

18:22 point this out here because it's just example of how men and women are

18:27 . Men have a slightly higher And the reason for that is testosterone

18:31 an important role in uh erythropoietin which is what is responsible for producing

18:38 uh red blood cells. It's the that is responsible for that plasma.

18:44 the other hand, is mostly it's water plus other stuff. So

18:48 about 90% water. Here's the list other stuff. Um If you take

18:54 the uh uh take out fibrinogen and clotting factors, you can call plasma

19:00 . So basically, now it won't , it is now capable for transfer

19:05 whatnot. And what I wanna do just kind of show you the different

19:07 of plasma proteins. I'm just gonna the question. If you don't know

19:11 answer, that's fine. Do you know what this is right up

19:15 What that looks like? What that western blood? OK. Good.

19:19 just wanted to see if anyone here some if you haven't done lab work

19:23 you're looking at western blocks, that's . I'm not, it's not

19:27 not everyone's gonna be in the But you know, this is just

19:30 example of what a Western block looks if you've never done that. And

19:34 , if, what you would want do with something like this is if

19:36 could do a 3D gel, you actually run it out and it would

19:39 out into not only in that one but also the other dimension. So

19:43 could see these different groups. And what plasma proteins are just simply proteins

19:48 are found in the plasma, they're in a couple of different areas,

19:51 primarily the liver, but there's some places where you can see them being

19:55 . Um The reason that they're significant not so much about what types that

20:01 gonna find there. All right, are important, but for our purposes

20:06 , those that is less important. I want to point out is the

20:10 we're concerned about them. Why we is that the presence of the proteins

20:15 in the plasma establishes an osmotic gradient to the interstitial space. OK.

20:23 when you put water into the water is drawn towards the presence of

20:28 plasma proteins because there's no plasma proteins in the interstitial space, water doesn't

20:33 to float out and away from the . It wants to stay where the

20:36 actually is located inside the capillaries and , the veins and the arteries.

20:41 . That's why it's really kind of for us. All right. Um

20:47 it draws water fluid to there. , the other thing plasma proteins do

20:52 bringing fluid into that space. What gonna do is it's gonna help you

20:56 regulate and maintain blood pressure and blood . All right. And you'll see

21:01 this is important because we're gonna bring up over and over and over

21:04 Not only in this unit, but the next unit we start talking about

21:07 renal system and how we regulate All. All right. Now,

21:11 some common proteins. Um, Have you ever heard of the Al

21:16 ? No. All right. Um you go home, get an

21:19 crack it open and just like play it for a little bit, play

21:23 the wa the clear stuff that is albumin and water. All right.

21:28 really, really gross. All But it's a sticky protein,

21:31 If you play, it's really, sticky. It's actually egg eggs we

21:35 use as the example, but it's the struck or it's not the,

21:38 , the food that has most And I think if I remember

21:42 it's like turkey does. II, can't remember exactly but someone's gonna google

21:47 real quick. Say which food has most albumen by volume or something,

21:52 know, whatever. All right. anyway, why, why we care

21:56 it. And so here this is albumin right here uh on the

21:59 it basically is capable of binding lots things in a very non-specific way.

22:04 it kind of serves as a uh carrier in the blood. Uh You've

22:09 of the globulins before? Have I'm sure you had, I

22:12 maybe not ha you may not have of the alpha or the betas,

22:15 you've definitely heard of the gamma right? Those are your antibodies.

22:20 . So your blood is filled with and you can just kind of go

22:23 here and go. OK. here's the alpha of the betas and

22:25 gammas, they're kind of marked up . So they're all over the

22:28 All right. Um alpha and beta uh globulins look what they transport lipids

22:34 ions. So again, it's another of transporter and then the other protein

22:39 want to point out to you is and fibrinogen is important because of the

22:43 we're gonna talk about at the very of class, which is how you

22:46 about clotting the blood. All So, fibrinogen is a plasma

22:50 it's already in circulation. So if cut yourself, this stuff is already

22:55 , ready to create the human band to hold your blood in your

23:00 OK? That's part of its All right. So that process is

23:05 to as hemostasis when we get we'll, we'll talk about that.

23:10 it's less important to know what each these individual things do and kind of

23:13 like, oh yeah, there's, these proteins that play an important role

23:18 maintaining um a osmotic pressure, but have other real roles individ uh independently

23:25 individually. Right? That's kind of key thing. And what I wanna

23:29 is I want to talk about how we make these formed elements? All

23:33 . Now, generically, the term use when we say we're gonna make

23:38 cells is we call the process hemostasis not hemostasis, hematopoiesis. All

23:44 you might even see hemopoiesis. All . And that's what this little big

23:47 this little chart, this little big . All right, here's the

23:54 Do not memorize the stairs, please not memorize the hormones involved. All

24:04 , there was a time I thought might be important. I have sense

24:07 matured. OK? And it's not important. The idea here though is

24:12 want you to show that there is relationship that all the, all the

24:15 cells in your body are derived from same stem cell line. All

24:21 that's what we're kind of seeing OK. We have these long term

24:25 hematopoietic stem cells, they become short . So basically what we're saying is

24:29 have this, this pluripotent cell or cell that kind of sits there and

24:34 a pool and then that pool divides . And then from there we get

24:38 . So we always have a stem group. We always have another group

24:41 which the other ones are derived and always preserve our stem cell line.

24:45 what this is. But then what do is we then go into these

24:49 colonies and we're gonna be driven down of two lines. And so down

24:53 , what you're looking at that is lymphoid line and then all the rest

24:57 this stuff that's the myeloid line. right. So you're going down and

25:02 myeloid like cells, which include the blood cells, includes the platelets or

25:07 thrombocytes and includes the mega carys plus couple of the other types of,

25:13 um granulocytes. When we're talking about lymphoid line, we're talking about uh

25:19 group of white blood cells that are like the T cells and the B

25:24 , right? So they are, are unique from the other uh group

25:27 white blood cells, the granulocytes. right. So I just wanted to

25:32 of show you that and then I this big long thing that's not really

25:36 . Like I said, don't memorize of these things. But what you

25:39 see is once I move down a , I'm committed to a specific

25:43 right? And then once I, the thing that allows me to commit

25:47 a specific hormone or signaling molecule that , all right, when I receive

25:53 , that is going to cause me change or differentiate enough in order to

25:57 forced down this particular track. So I become uh a colony forming unit

26:04 the basophils, I can't switch and oh no, no, no,

26:07 . We need more granular or we more neutrophils. So never mind,

26:11 gonna become a neutrophil. Now, you make a certain step, you're

26:14 stuck on that track. And I to say it was like uh when

26:18 declared your major in college, but can change your major any time at

26:21 point. Right back in the it was like, oh, I'm

26:25 down this track if I wanna graduate time, this is what I need

26:28 do. And so you get Yeah. Mhm Did you? So

26:43 when they choose. So for we'll use this one. So you

26:46 see here this, this uh colony unit will allow me to become pretty

26:50 anything, right? So, depending which uh hormones are available, it's

26:55 drive me down a particular track. here this is called granulocyte monocyte calling

27:01 factor. This is why I didn't you to memorize it because there's also

27:04 . But when these things are available I three, then that's gonna force

27:08 down this path. So you'll either a neutrophil or you become a mac

27:13 , then you don't have a right? Oh Well, what if

27:16 go down this line, well, gonna be another type of granular site

27:20 factors. Probably G CS F. then what you do is,

27:23 when IL five or LL three is , it's gonna drive you down this

27:27 track kind of going off the It's OK. Go into never.

27:36 , it is. Literally, I've my major. I'm now stuck a

27:40 major. I can never change Yeah. Yeah. Once you've made

27:47 step forward, you're now committed. , what I wanna do is I

27:51 show you that commitment through erythrocytes. think this one is the easy one

27:57 look at. Not so much to memorize all the different stages because

28:01 are a lot of stages, but shows how this works. All

28:04 And so you can see here, know, here's that short term um

28:09 cell line that goes into the myeloid and you can see that, that

28:14 can identify multiple stages along the That's really what I'm trying to show

28:18 this particular picture. All right. these stages are important because what they

28:22 is they're, they're showing those key that cause it to change into something

28:27 . All right. Now, where this actually take place? Well,

28:32 you're a kid, well, this takes place in red, red

28:35 All right. But in utero, don't have bones really to have red

28:40 . So you don't do that So have the spleen. It usually is

28:43 the important one liver. But prior that, it's gonna be yolk

28:47 So, before you have your the yoke is responsible for making red

28:50 cells. All right. So you making them very early on if,

28:55 that's kind of the take home All right. And then when you're

28:58 kid, most of your bones have bone marrow. So you can go

29:02 you know, any bone basically crack open. There's gonna be red bone

29:05 . Please don't do that to They don't like that. It's not

29:09 . All right. And then as start exiting out of puberty and you

29:13 becoming an adult, your red marrow starting to be replaced by yellow marrow

29:18 most of the bones. So really long bones in particular is where you're

29:21 see, you know, like if cracked open a femur, you'd see

29:24 red marrow there. But in an , you crack it open, you'll

29:27 yellow marrow, red marrow now become in some very specific locations, primarily

29:33 these flat bones like in the hips at the ends of the long

29:37 So that what we call the And these are not easy to get

29:41 . So, you know, when see someone donating marrow, like an

29:45 donating marrow, for somebody understand that are going to go through some really

29:50 surgery to get access to that So you should just give them a

29:53 old thumbs up and then go buy a card and maybe a, a

29:57 , you know, one of the cookies. All right. Now,

30:01 process of erythropoiesis is gonna be regulated the kidney. And the reason we

30:05 the kidney or my presumption is why body chose the kidney is that all

30:10 needs to pass through the kidney to cleansed of the waste that it's going

30:14 . All right. So it just like this would be an easy structure

30:18 your blood has to go through All right. And so what the

30:22 is doing is it's responding to the carrying capacity of the blood.

30:27 this is a uh a long winded way of saying it's monitoring how much

30:33 it's receiving and how much oxygen it's is gonna be dependent upon how much

30:38 blood cells actually circulating in the blood . So, if you start losing

30:43 blood cells, there's not the same of oxygen being carried by the

30:48 So the kidney is oxygen starved and should be the signal that says,

30:52 , I need more red blood So it releases a hormone called erythropoietin

30:57 then goes to the bones and to bone marrow, red bone marrow and

31:00 , hey, start making more red cells. And so this is that

31:04 that you're seeing behind you. That's is called erythropoiesis. All right.

31:09 that's the simplified version of this. what happens is, is a red

31:14 cell goes through this process of extruding portions of its, of its cellular

31:22 and replaces it with protein that it's . And the protein it makes is

31:27 . So it just makes tons and of hemoglobin. And as it's

31:30 it, it starts getting rid of nucleus, it gets rid of the

31:33 uh uh the organelles, all the it doesn't need and it changes its

31:38 . So you can imagine this is cell that is basically like a round

31:42 . And what you do is just deflating the basketball. And now you

31:44 a thing that looks like a All right. And if you don't

31:47 what a beret is, well, see a picture here in just a

31:50 . All right. So that's what these things represent. And in

31:56 if your body is truly desperate, will actually release reticulocytes out into the

32:01 , which hasn't completed the whole maturation , they can still carry oxygen,

32:05 they're not as efficient as the full blood cell, full erythrocyte. And

32:11 there are ways that you can look say, oh, you're going through

32:15 erythro erythropoiesis because your reticulocyte count is high, you know, anyway,

32:21 that's, that's what, what all is basically saying is you're getting rid

32:24 all this material along the way. that you're basically creating a cell that

32:30 a bag of hemoglobin. So this what this is. Um So in

32:35 of the number of cells you you have about five times in the

32:37 uh cells per mil of blood. if you want to figure out how

32:41 you actually have, you can just , OK, a men are around

32:45 liters, women are around 4.5 That's again based on average height,

32:49 going to be different. If you're tall woman, you're going to have

32:52 red blood cells and if you're a woman, but same thing with men

32:55 so on and so forth. But you want to calculate it out,

32:57 use the number 55 liters. So five yeah, five liters. So

33:02 mills times that number gives you an of how many red blood cells you

33:06 . Still not the most numerous number cells in the body for anything.

33:11 right. Now, its primary purpose to transport oxygen and I have it

33:16 in parentheses, carbon dioxide as We'll see what that is a little

33:20 later when we talk about the respiratory . All right, you can see

33:25 how, when I say it's it's like a beret. You can

33:28 it's a biconcave disc. So it like we've taken a round cell and

33:32 flattened it in the middle, And what this does is, it

33:37 the inside of the cell near the , right? The more pancake like

33:41 have the less distance you have to if you're an oxygen molecule, right

33:46 leave or enter into the cell. this is one of the benefits that

33:49 does, it increases surface area through that diffusion can take place.

33:55 it's not any different in terms of area from our round cell because you

34:00 , a cell is a cell is cell. If it's round or

34:03 think again, think about a basketball completely deflate it. Have I changed

34:07 surface area of the basketball? but what I've done now is I've

34:11 a larger surface area to which contact take place. Right? So as

34:16 running along the sides, uh through blood vessel, I now have this

34:20 surface area where the exchange can occur it's running through. Um They tend

34:27 stack up. So you can see here, this is a capillary.

34:30 very capillaries are very small. They're about the size of a red blood

34:34 and you can see what they've done they've stacked up like a stack of

34:38 , like a bunch of Pringles. what they're doing is they're just rolling

34:41 in the capillary. And so that's they move. And because of their

34:48 their shape, you can bend they're very pliant. And so

34:52 as you can see here are small they like to twist and turn a

34:55 . And it allows for these cells bend and twist in these capillaries

35:00 as you're traveling along delivering oxygen. through the process erythropoiesis, we have

35:11 a cell that is a nucleus. right, it has no organelles.

35:16 replaced all of its cytosol with a or filled its cytosol with a whole

35:20 of hemoglobin. So I like to it a bag, a bag of

35:24 . Uh You have about 280 times to the six molecules of hemoglobin per

35:29 multiply that by five times 10 to nine cells times 5000 liters. And

35:34 still not the most abundant protein in body. It seems like it

35:39 All right, they do not generate TP via oxidative phosphorylation. They use

35:47 and this makes 100% sense if you about it. Do you guys like

35:50 ice cream? Yes. Well, an exception to the rule everywhere.

35:58 OK. They used to have a actually, this used to be their

36:03 . We, we eat what we and we sell the rest. Have

36:07 ever, have you ever seen a commercial? In fact, if you

36:10 to the Blue Bell Factory, I you to do. So. It's

36:12 there in Brenham. They have an cream shop associated with the factory.

36:17 can go in, it's a dollar scoop and they have flavors there that

36:20 do not put out to the general . But if you do the

36:23 one of the things they do is can go up there into the break

36:26 . They, you, you it's a glass room. And so

36:29 like animals at the zoo right in break room and they have freezers of

36:35 cream. And what they do is can take out an ice cream and

36:37 put their name on it and then set it into the employee ice

36:41 So they can have as much ice as they want whenever they want,

36:44 much or whenever. Right. they eat what they can, they

36:48 sell the rest. All right. , if that sounds like a dream

36:52 for you, I encourage you to into it because, mm, ice

36:56 . All right. It is But you know, who cares?

37:04 if, let's think, keep that mind. If I did oxidated

37:09 they make a TP, what would to all the oxygen I'm carrying.

37:15 would use it all, wouldn't and I'd make a whole bunch of

37:16 TP. I would burn through the thing that I'm trying to carry.

37:21 that was kind of the joke of commercials. It had like a new

37:24 and he'd drive up and he'd go the delivery spot and they open up

37:27 back and there was no ice cream there. He'd eaten it all on

37:29 way to the delivery space. I . So, that was what would

37:33 , what would happen. So they are capable of doing glycolysis. So

37:39 still have to make a TP. still things that the red blood cells

37:41 doing that are energy dependent, but will not use oxy phosphorylation. All

37:48 . Now, they survive in circulation about 100 and 20 days. All

37:52 . So about every four months you replacing, you know, a red

37:57 cell that was just newly made. , that's a roughly a rough

38:03 Now, here's a molecule that you've learned about a long time ago.

38:07 old hemoglobin. If you've seen the 1000 times. All right. It

38:11 a protein that has a pigment associated it. All right. This is

38:16 heme. All right. So there's parts to it. We have 1234

38:23 of globin. All right. And associated with each other. And then

38:27 each of those globin, we have heme. It's the heme that binds

38:31 the oxygen, which type of globin present is gonna be depend upon which

38:35 of life you're in. And so , for example, you can see

38:38 here we have an alpha and the chain, I think uh uh

38:42 new or newly born, you newborns are like they have a gamma

38:46 a delta chain. I'm, I can't remember exactly but it's definitely

38:49 alpha and beta and they're actually able hold on to oxygen much more efficiently

38:56 that they don't run out of oxygen whatever reason. Right. But when

39:02 think about blood, most of the that you are inhaling in and entering

39:08 your bloodstream is going into the red cell. Some of it will dissolve

39:14 the fluid into the plasma and sit just kind of like carbon dioxide in

39:18 soda. All right. Except it be forming bubbles. That would be

39:22 , right? But you will have and carbon dioxide and nitrogen dissolved in

39:29 blood, dissolved in your tissues. when we're talking about carrying oxygen around

39:33 body, the most efficient way to it is to bind it up to

39:35 hemoglobin and then use the red blood which have all the hemoglobin carried

39:40 So, if you need oxygen, , here you go. There's a

39:43 of it for you right now. right. That's the idea.

39:46 So hemoglobin is not in the it's in the red blood cell,

39:54 ? Not in the plasma in the element. So, in the lungs

40:02 we're gonna, again, when we about um respiration, we're gonna go

40:07 a lot more detail about this. right. So when you're in the

40:11 , you have more oxygen, oxygen driven into the red blood cell driven

40:16 to hemoglobin. And what we form something called uh oxyhemoglobin. All

40:21 So it's binding up to the Iron has the affinity towards that.

40:25 then as you move to the there's less oxygen in the blood.

40:28 oxygen is uh driven off the off the iron. And so now

40:35 we do is refer to that as oxyhemoglobin. Amazing how those words

40:40 right? And then oxygen or hemoglobin can actually bind other gaseous molecules

40:46 they have special names for those as . Uh The one that we're most

40:49 in is the one that binds up carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide actually binds

40:53 to the globin chain, not up the heme. All right. And

40:57 it does, it causes a small in the shape of the molecule.

41:01 when we do that, we're going call it carb amina hemoglobin, we

41:06 want to call it carboxyhemoglobin. That's happens when you bind carbon monoxide to

41:11 . And that's going to bind to heme portion and carbon monoxide binds irreversibly

41:17 the heme. So oxygen is no available to bind or the oxygen binding

41:22 is no longer available. So you to get rid of that, destroy

41:25 molecule in order for that to Ok. But some other things,

41:30 are imported. We're gonna get that carbonic acid. This is gonna be

41:33 reaction we're gonna look at, it's of the most important reactions in the

41:36 . It just appears over and over over again shortly. So today we're

41:40 gonna talk about it but just know coming up um nitric oxide. So

41:44 gas and then there's some other ones always a fun on hydrogen sulfide.

41:51 like rotten eggs. All right. , I'm going to mention these now

41:57 they're going to become, again, important when we talk about ventilation.

42:02 these are other R BC molecule and proteins that are important. So,

42:08 dye or you might see in some , b phospho glycerine. All

42:13 What this does is it binds up hemoglobin and reduces its affinity towards

42:19 So, oxygen we're gonna see has a changing affinity based on how many

42:25 binds to the hemoglobin. One of ways that we can kick or reduce

42:30 affinity is when tissues release uh the or the 23 DPG and basically tell

42:38 red blood cells, hey, start the oxygen. And so it will

42:43 that affinity. And so oxygen floats and out and into the tissues.

42:48 protects against oxidative damage. Can't imagine the oxygen is coming from to cause

42:54 . But it's there one person got . Thank you. Uh Carbonic anhydrase

43:00 gonna play an important role in uh carbon dioxide into bicarbonate. And it's

43:06 bicarbonate that we're gonna actually transport carbon as um it's so it's, it

43:11 an important role in this reversible which will deal with. If you're

43:16 this inside the red blood cell, making bicarbonate in the red blood

43:20 you want to get rid of that . So you need an exchanger.

43:23 we have a chlorine or a chloride uh transporter. It's basically, it's

43:30 exchanger. And so this is what what, what is known as the

43:34 shift. And lastly, we want , this is a carbon dioxide channel

43:40 though it's an aquaporin with the family it's in. So what it

43:43 it allows carbon dioxide to come into red blood cells quickly so that we

43:47 then convert it into bicarbonate so that can then uh move carbon dioxide easier

43:54 this dissolved form. So take home here, erythrocytes, their primary

44:03 Uh what's the primary job of an oxy oxygen transport? OK. There

44:09 means by which we, that we this, OK. We bind to

44:16 and he specifically, OK. All , we're gonna deal with the

44:21 Later. The other formed elements are cells with the exception of one.

44:28 right. And so what we're talking here and this, this is an

44:31 part of the talk for me because was trained in a immunology lab.

44:37 didn't do immunology work. But excuse me, half the lab worked

44:42 immunocyte. So cells, the lymphoid and then, then my half of

44:47 lab worked on uh reproductive stuff. the cell that we've discovered happened to

44:53 an immunocyte that had this gene that worked on. All right. And

44:57 every seminar I ever had to go was an immune seminar. You

45:02 So, because it was departmental, go to your departmental seminars and stuff

45:05 that and I'm about to run through cells and if my boss heard me

45:11 way I was teaching this stuff to , he would disown me because it's

45:15 this is all you need to know end. All right. So first

45:18 , two groups of leukocytes, these the white blood cells, two

45:22 one are called the granulocytes. One's the A granulocytes. Why do you

45:26 them granulocytes? What do they have ? A granular sites are called a

45:31 sites because they don't good. All . Just making sure you guys understand

45:36 language. All right. The key about the granular sites, two things

45:41 distinguish them is one of the presence the Granules. Number two are these

45:46 looking nuclei, what we call multilobed . It looks like someone took AAA

45:52 animal and deflated portions of it. . You can kind of see examples

45:58 the cartoons, but we're gonna see in more real life. But look

46:00 that. I mean, they they're awful looking. All right.

46:03 , the three types of granular sites the neutrophils, asins and the

46:07 They are named based upon the stain stains them. That's where they got

46:13 name. OK. So have you taken a class where you looked at

46:19 ? Right? And one of the common stains on a slide is what

46:22 call H and E, have you of that? H and E staining

46:27 person on that anyone else? H and E is hematoxylin and

46:34 All right. So Eoin, we're see here is a stain that stains

46:39 that are acidic. All right. , these hang out in the blood

46:45 very, very short periods of So they're called on and they don't

46:49 a lot of time in the The other two types are the A

46:53 . And so these have these single , they don't have any Granules.

46:57 they don't have these weird looking They're really easy to identify. These

47:00 the monocytes and lymphocytes. And these things are distinguishable from each other because

47:04 matters. All right, really obvious see them. So I am not

47:09 make you identify them. I'm gonna or less ask you, what do

47:11 do? All right. For my MP class, they have to identify

47:15 bad boys. All right. But not the hardest thing, but you

47:19 have to learn if you're, when, when you're so again,

47:23 school, dental school. All All right. You will do a

47:27 through the histology course. You will a histology course. You will have

47:30 learn what tissues look like under the . And some of these things you're

47:34 like, I have no idea. look all the same to me.

47:37 right. This is one of those where you do a blood smear and

47:39 like, ok, what cells do have here? And that's what you're

47:42 at up here is a blood All right. So the most common

47:46 of granular site is the neutrophil. right, makes up about 50 to

47:50 of all the leukocytes that are in in blood at any given moment,

47:54 lobe nuclei. So you can see multi lobe nuclei, their Granules are

47:59 small. So that's one of the features from them when you're looking at

48:04 . Um the nucleus is referred to a poly morpho nucleus. That's the

48:11 word for just saying funky looking poly morpho different shaped nuclei. All

48:18 And so sometimes you'll hear pngs polymorph PM PM NGS. Those are polymorphonuclear

48:25 . So that's the neutrophil. All . Now, this is an easy

48:29 . Neutrophils are fag acidic. All . So that's the thing you circle

48:34 there. These are a fag acidic or fag acidic if you like like

48:39 pronounce it that way. All What does a peg acidic cell

48:43 It eats stuff. All right. that shouldn't be there, cellular

48:48 foreign substances. That is its primary . It is the first line of

48:53 against bacterial invasion. All right. Granules that you have primarily lysosomal perox

49:02 . So they're peroxidase. So their is to break things down and anything

49:06 could damage cells, we're gonna destroy stuff and, and reduce it.

49:11 , this is part of your inflammatory whenever you see inflammation, one of

49:15 first things that arrives is a Ok? You skin your knee,

49:21 will be there very, very All right, you want to go

49:25 something cool. Go to youtube type neutrophil attacks bacteria and it's basically a

49:32 and you get to watch a bacteria this and you get to watch a

49:35 chasing it around. They are hunters they kill things. It's awesome.

49:40 group eosinophils. All right, eosinophils stained by an acidic stain. All

49:46 . Again, you can see the is all funky. Their job is

49:51 lot more interesting. We don't have lot of ascent ils in western uh

49:56 . All right, because we don't have parasite problems here. Every now

49:59 then you'll have a kid who uh, you know, like,

50:02 , hook worms or something like But you don't really have the problems

50:07 parasites that you see in the third . And so in the third

50:10 you're gonna see high as in ail . These are cool. What they

50:13 is they come wandering up to a worm, some sort of parasite

50:17 , hey, how you doing? then it opens up and release a

50:20 bunch of chemicals that basically punch holes the worms and other fun things.

50:24 right, that's their job. They play a role in allergic reactions in

50:28 cases. All right. Not but, but sometimes, all

50:33 they also look for and uh fatties are called antibody antigen complexes.

50:39 an antigen is anything that your body as being foreign. And so one

50:44 the ways that we do this is have antibodies that can recognize very specific

50:49 and they create larger structures and it's larger structure that these cells are

50:54 They're like, oh, I see portion of the antibody, that part

50:57 the antibody is bound to the thing shouldn't be here. So me grabbing

51:00 portion of the antibody allows me to in the thing that shouldn't be here

51:03 I can destroy it. Third type the basil. Anyone here struggling with

51:11 right now, struggling with allergies. . You got the, the oak

51:18 and the ragweed and all the other stuff that's going along right now.

51:22 wake up every morning, you got ounces of mucus in your throat and

51:25 like, right, you walk out us all day and you're sniffling.

51:30 do you take to do that? do you, what do you

51:32 You take the antihistamine? All So the reason you're feeling all this

51:37 . Why, why you have this because these cells become very, very

51:42 in the presence of these foreign pollens stuff that are getting in your

51:45 And what they do is they release , which is an inflammatory and what

51:50 does, it opens up the blood so that blood goes into those areas

51:54 basically creates a pressure to trap that material. All right, you get

52:00 and you get the uh in inflammation because the blood might be leaking out

52:05 capillaries, you don't want it to up. So you also put an

52:08 in there. That's heparin. So is the uh is the inflammatory and

52:14 um uh Bazo Dilator, the Heparin the coagulant and when you get all

52:19 up and you don't feel comfortable, because of all that swelling. And

52:23 you take your antihistamines and it doesn't the signal, it just prevents it

52:28 happening. All right. In other , you're still releasing the histamine,

52:31 just not working and then it'll, ever notice you get that nasty rebound

52:36 . Yeah, that's the rebound is all those things are still there.

52:40 right now, um Their job allergic reactions, what we're doing is

52:49 trying to track uh or attract other blood cells, the neutrophils and other

52:54 into an area where infection might be place. So you're creating that inflammation

52:58 draw things, trap things and draw in the monocytes. You already know

53:07 another name. A monocyte is the form of the macrophage. All

53:12 So, basically, you've gone through mutation process or not mutation, but

53:15 differentiation process you're now creating a The macrophage now does a job just

53:21 the neutrophil does. It's more of surveillance molecule. It basically can sit

53:25 a tissue. So, for in your skin, you have Langerhans

53:30 , Langerhans cells are a type of . You have macrophages in the nervous

53:35 . Um They can be found moving tissue to tissue. This would be

53:40 a uh wandering macrophage. So if in a tissue and doesn't move

53:45 it's a resident macrophage. So they be kind of in all these different

53:49 . And what they're doing is they're surveilling. It's like the cop sitting

53:52 in his car waiting for you to speeding by, right? And that's

53:57 you can kind of think of your system as is literally, it's,

54:00 , it's police officers on patrol and they get active, they're gonna alert

54:06 else and kind of get things All right. So it's the macrophage

54:11 doing all this work. It basically also as an antigen presenting cell.

54:15 don't talk about immunology in this An antigen presenting cell is every cell

54:19 your body can present an antigen. this is a very specific type that

54:23 the immune system as part of the system. And what it does is

54:27 it consumes something, it takes all parts that it consumed, it basically

54:31 it up and then it says, , do you, do you immune

54:34 ? Do you recognize any of these ? Is there, is there anything

54:36 that we need to go after and the rest uh the adaptive system?

54:41 so, um when you guys were uh dealing with the COVID issue,

54:48 , what were we doing is we introducing with the new vaccines, we're

54:52 small pieces parts that would hopefully show inside cells and be presented as antigen

54:57 alert our adaptive systems. That that's the principle or high in that

55:01 of vaccine. Last little group are lymphocytes. These are the lymphoid

55:10 uh 20 to 40%. You can here in our picture, I wasn't

55:14 pointing things out here. So let just go back here. So basophil

55:18 the big blues, the uh the we already pointed out that would be

55:22 ascent ofhis monocytes are big. Notice nucleus is is rather large. And

55:27 when you look at the lymphocyte or cell is rather large, when you

55:30 at the lymphocyte, this the nucleus fairly large, cytoplasm, fairly small

55:36 not a lot of Granules. All . So anyway, these are the

55:41 when we think of immune defense, is what we um these are the

55:44 we think about for the most part cells are the cells that produce

55:50 So they sit in like your lymph and other lymphoid like tissues and they're

55:55 as things pass through. And when are presented to them, what they

55:59 is they differentiate into a different type cell called a plasma cell. And

56:02 plasma cell takes and starts producing antibodies the specific antigen that was presented to

56:09 . And so what you do is basically start up with very few of

56:12 particular type of antibody. And you that out where you make tons of

56:15 and they just start producing tons and and tons of that antibody. And

56:20 the antibody is able to bind up the antigen and then other immune cells

56:23 come along and remove the antibody antigen . The T cell is um and

56:31 cells are formed in the uh hence the name B cell, that's

56:35 they, that's where they originate. do T cells, but they,

56:38 B cell matures in the bone T . On the other hand, while

56:42 made in bones, they're transported to thymus and it's in the thymus that

56:46 go through a unique type of maturing . And what you end up

56:50 There's, there's about, I think the last count, I think there's

56:53 20 different types of T cells. you're probably most familiar with the the

56:57 helper and the T side of toxic , the th or the TC,

57:01 what they do is they're in circulation they come across a foreign agent.

57:06 what they do is they bind that material, foreign agent and then

57:11 they serve as the Aler of the response. And so what they do

57:16 t helper cells activate T side of cells. T side of toxic cells

57:20 multiply create hundreds and hundreds of So it's basically like creating an army

57:25 the same type of, of, soldier to go specifically after that one

57:30 of antigen. And that's how they of work. All right now,

57:36 I said, there are more than two, but those are like the

57:38 big boys um when it comes to lymphoid light. So white blood

57:46 just what do they do? What's type, what do they do?

57:49 , what distinguishes it? What does do? I'm not gonna ask

57:52 here's a, here's a blood tell me what you're looking at because

57:57 would struggle 55 minute struggle. I'm gonna do that to you. So

58:04 CS one type of formed element. it a cell or? No?

58:10 , not a cell because it doesn't a nucleus incapable of multiplying has no

58:14 . It's a bag of hemoglobin, , survives surrounding 20 day white blood

58:18 . Are they cells? Yes, have nuclei. They are able of

58:22 , so on and so forth, we have this one, the

58:25 all right, we call them platelets other organism. You might see the

58:29 thrombocytes. People who work on platelets really, really upset when you call

58:32 thrombocytes. So, um, but giving you both names just so,

58:35 know that they're congruent terms. All . So what we do is we're

58:39 go through, um, and we're produce a cell called a megakaryocyte.

58:46 right. And the hormone that drives production of this is called thrombopoietin.

58:52 , what happens is, is you megakaryocyte and platelets are production of a

58:59 , it's really not a production but basically, you're tearing off portions

59:02 the mega cary simply by sheer So as blood goes by the mega

59:08 sends out an extension of itself and the force of the blood going by

59:13 that portion off and then you end with a little tiny cellular structure.

59:17 it's not truly a cell, it's a pinched off portion of the cell

59:22 contains a whole bunch of elements in and has a cell membrane. And

59:28 what causes that to happen is the of the thrombopoietin. All right.

59:33 first, thrombopoietin allows you to make mega carys. And the second thing

59:38 it does, it starts making it that little poochy dance so that you

59:42 tear off pieces of the platelets. , there's two types of Granules,

59:49 Granules. You may have heard of Willebrand factor. Have you heard of

59:53 ? No. All right, we'll to that a bit. We have

59:56 dense core Granules. So these are signaling molecules. These are probably,

60:01 are molecules that play a role in clots. That's probably the easiest way

60:06 think about that. The job that platelet plays is in hemostasis. They're

60:11 circulation for roughly about 10 days. compare and contrast red blood cells for

60:18 , these 10 days. So you're a lot of these all the time

60:23 breaking them down and replacing them over over and over again. Blood has

60:32 to it. Basically, it's the of sheer stress versus uh the sheer

60:37 . So in essence, it's, a thickness question. All right,

60:41 are different factors that can affect If I have more red blood

60:47 what's gonna happen? It increases it becomes thicker, right? There's

60:53 a lot of elbow room fibrinogen, is that plasma protein. If I

60:58 more of that, if I have little tiny molecules in my fluid,

61:01 get thicker, right. The radius a vessel matters. All right,

61:09 will decrease viscosity in small vessels. right. But as I get to

61:16 larger vessel, then I'm not gonna affect viscosity. It just flows,

61:21 just moves just fine. All But when I get those small

61:25 I don't have red blood cells that into each other. What are the

61:28 blood blood blood cells bumping into Yeah, they're, they just have

61:34 wall, they basically line up so just kind of move through. All

61:40 . If I increase uh linear I'm gonna increase viscosity. So that's

61:43 pressure flow thing. And then also increases viscosity. So, um I'm

61:50 sure why, but your book explains like, look colder temperatures, you'd

61:55 things to thicken up at the colder gets. But that's not what actually

61:58 . It's the opposite. It's the that does that. So this last

62:02 bit the last 20 minutes here and probably won't even be 20 minutes.

62:05 see how long it takes. We're deal with this question of hemostasis.

62:10 right. So, the easiest way think about hemostasis is that hemostasis is

62:14 body's way of making bandaids. All . It's to cl the flow of

62:19 from the body. Is your blood ? Yes. So we don't want

62:23 to leave the body. No, , that's right. All right.

62:28 we're resting the flow of blood. right, we call it making a

62:33 , right? There's prevention of So, any of these things are

62:39 and there's four basic steps to All right. First is gonna be

62:44 followed by an increase in tissue which you could probably say is,

62:49 associated with that. The next step be the formation of the platelet

62:53 followed by the formation of the Right. So there's, there's two

62:58 occurring at the end that basically occlude flow. Our starting point here is

63:04 vascular spasm. All right. What doing here. So you can see

63:08 , we've taken a knife and we're a blood vessel. All right.

63:11 you can see down here that the vessel has been torn. All

63:15 That's what we're trying to show Now, I want you to picture

63:19 the picture I don't think does a job because you're looking at it from

63:21 e but in essence, what you've is you've split the blood vessel like

63:25 , so where does the blood wanna up and out? Right? So

63:29 gonna happen is, is that we're see vasoconstriction on either side of the

63:35 ? All right. So I'm gonna this way. Do you see how

63:37 we can go through? Right. have a normal blood vessel. I've

63:41 it. So what's gonna happen is gonna get vasoconstriction. Can you

63:45 Can you see through my hands All right. So you can imagine

63:49 on the opposite side of that I'm actually occluding the flow of

63:53 Now, I may not be doing good job of occluding the flow of

63:55 , but I'm doing a better job not doing anything at all. So

63:59 the first step. All right. gonna slow the blood flow through that

64:04 . All right, by collapsing the , it just squeezes it closed.

64:08 then what that's also gonna do is it's going to start causing the chemicals

64:16 the surrounding area to start being to attract the platelets and to cause

64:22 clot to start being formed. So is the first step. It's basically

64:26 , hey, damages occurred here at point, come and arrive at this

64:31 and start addressing this issue. That's that second part is there. So

64:40 talked about the different types of pressures a vessel. One of those is

64:43 transmural pressure, right? Transmural Remember is the pressure difference between the

64:49 and the outside of the vessels across wall. All right. So when

64:56 have no flo fluid flowing in a vessel, that means the pressure inside

65:00 dropped. So what has happened to transmural pressure is increased? All

65:07 And so now that pressure is being on the outside, that greater

65:11 So it helps to occlude the flow blood. All right. Now,

65:18 you can't visualize that, think about you cut yourself, right? What

65:22 you do apply pressure guys when you yourself shaving, what do you

65:30 Press on it, get that little of toilet paper, press real

65:33 Maybe I'll stop. All right. the same thing. The transmural pressure

65:38 this simply through the simple laws of , right? I dropped the pressure

65:43 the inside of the blood vessel. basically an increase in transmural pressure.

65:47 reinforces the spasm. Next step, plug. All right, platelets are

65:59 to arrive at the site of They're attracted to it. All

66:04 Now, the reason they're attracted to is because the chemicals that are being

66:07 by the damaged tissue. All And they actually start sending a signal

66:13 . Now, I know you guys get out out all that much,

66:15 I'm gonna just give you a scenario and tell me if this sounds

66:18 All right, you find out, about high school. All right,

66:22 would be less common now. But about high school. You have a

66:27 whose parents have gone out of All right. And so that friend

66:32 you over and a couple of his friends or her friends over to come

66:36 out? Ok. So what have done is we've attracted in teenagers and

66:43 are teenagers gonna do? They're gonna on their phones and they're gonna start

66:50 all their friends. Hey, and so's parents are out of

66:53 Why don't you come hang out and those people are gonna start texting their

66:59 and those friends are gonna start texting friends and so on and so on

67:02 so on. Have you ever been a party like that? And what

67:07 the response? Get out more? right. Now, if you've paid

67:15 attention to movies over time, about five or seven years, a new

67:19 comes out about a block party type where a party of control movie,

67:23 is a standard fare to attract to it's an attractive proposition, parties can

67:30 out of control like that. Right . You can imagine that if a

67:36 like that got out of control, would cause great distress to the surrounding

67:41 . Would you agree? Yeah. there are not only chemicals that are

67:47 the platelets, there are also chemicals are preventing platelets from showing up.

67:53 . So there are three steps that part of these two things that we

67:58 described. All right. So platelets gonna show up and start aggregating.

68:03 right, and start adhering to the and then what they're gonna do is

68:08 become activated and they start activating other to come in. And so that's

68:12 you get that aggregation from. But the same time, the surrounding tissue

68:16 going to be the old man sitting door saying stay off my lawn if

68:21 have any neighbors like that. Stay, I'm, I'm I'm that

68:24 . Stay off my lawn. I don't care. But if you

68:28 a block party on my street, let you know, you better invite

68:32 . All right. So three adhesion. That's the first step.

68:36 platelets bind to themselves and bind to things now are platelets always in

68:45 What do you think? Yes or . Are they part of the formed

68:50 ? Yeah. So they're always in . OK. Something is happening to

68:56 them to bind to themselves and to things. Something must be different.

69:03 right, that's number one, you activation, the binding, the,

69:08 changes that are occurring in the platelets going to cause greater change inside that

69:14 so that they can then do their function of creating the clot. And

69:18 third is you're gonna start getting the . Those are the platelets sending out

69:23 signal saying, hey, platelet over , come check this out. We're

69:27 a party. OK. Those are steps. The reason they don't normally

69:34 is because the endothelium of the capillaries the blood vessels produce prostacyclin. All

69:41 . So this is trying to show what's going on. Look, the

69:45 are sitting there going look, I'm , but normally the tissue around here

69:50 releasing prostacyclin saying, stay away, off my lawn. All right.

69:57 something's changed what has changed in the . It's broken. You have endothelium

70:05 when you tear the endothelium underlying, is connective tissue, connective tissue is

70:09 made up of collagen and other large . When something is different, that

70:16 the thing that causes a platelet to activated. Now, to help you

70:20 this, think about this. Have ever gotten a bloody no nose or

70:23 like that and drip blood on the . Did that blood coagulate on the

70:32 ? Think about it for a I mean, usually you'll probably clean

70:35 up really quickly. But if you it sit there, does it

70:43 She's saying? Yes, Sammy. think? Yes, you wanna

70:47 Think. No. Yeah, you're . No. All right. Sounds

70:53 someone needs to go home and punch little brother and find out what happens

70:57 in the nose. Let a couple at the ground and apologize and then

71:01 clean them up. And what you'll is the blood drops if you leave

71:07 , be will coagulate independent of So what that tells you is everything

71:15 need to know about blood, that to form a clot, every anything

71:19 everything you need to form a clot already there in the blood.

71:22 That's number one, the thing that causing the blood to coagulate on the

71:26 like on a table or on a is the same thing that is causing

71:31 to coagulate inside a nose or in torn uh thing. It's a foreign

71:38 , something it's not seen before. the endothelium is something it's seeing and

71:43 sending a signal. Stay away, away, stay away. But when

71:46 tear away that endothelium, I now collagen, the collagen is what is

71:52 . And so the platelets bind up it and when the platelets bind up

71:55 it. That's when you're going to it. Now, the molecule that

71:59 a role, this is Von Willebrand . It is what it's gonna

72:05 I suppose, collagen, other act molecules as well. So now you're

72:11 activation. All right, calcium plays important role. So we're going to

72:15 releasing those, those molecules that I are signaling molecules. A TP ad

72:19 serotonin calcium. These are all signaling . What they're doing is they are

72:25 the nearby platelets and themselves. And what you're also doing is you're releasing

72:30 fibers that are reinforcing the activation process causing the clot to get bigger and

72:36 . And then the surrounding tissues are , no, no, no,

72:40 stay where you are. And that's the clot stays small is because the

72:45 tissues prevent them from happening. You're see changes that take place inside the

72:51 , they're gonna start squeezing themselves. right, they're gonna start making themselves

72:55 and what they're trying to do is trying to fill up that space.

72:58 it becomes a dam. Um You're , like I said here, um

73:05 changes in receptors and they're gonna seal brake. So they have actinomycin within

73:09 . And so they're gonna tighten themselves and flatten themselves out. And

73:14 what you're gonna do is you're gonna using a series of plasma proteins,

73:18 proteins that are part of what is the coagulation cascade now, here's the

73:23 out, right. If you look this, you're gonna see a bunch

73:26 Roman numerals. You see all those Roman numerals and like the 10,

73:30 seven, the five, the the 12, these are not named

73:36 the order in which they activate each , they're named in the order in

73:41 they were discovered. All right. the good news, we don't have

73:46 know the actual cascades. All what we need to know is

73:52 what's happening. And I'm going to out the important ones that you need

73:55 know. All right, and what can see here is we have two

73:58 top and we have one in the , right? So on the two

74:02 , the two on top one is the intrinsic path pathway. One's called

74:05 extrinsic pathway. And then they converge form what is called the common

74:11 Now, why both of these I couldn't tell you. All

74:14 But what this tells you is that is a process that says in the

74:19 is everything we need to form the event. So it's all there.

74:24 that's what the intrinsic pathway is. showing you these are the things that

74:28 to be activated in order for us get coagulation independent of anything else,

74:33 will just happen if we activate this process, the extrinsic on the

74:39 hand, is a faster pathway and it does is it gets activated when

74:43 tissue damage. And now the tissues are external to the blood are

74:47 hey, damage has occurred. So you see the difference here in the

74:52 that's inside the blood? I don't a signal other than the activation.

74:56 like a a foreign surface, But an extrinsic pathway saying,

75:01 hey, hey, hey, damage occurred right here. You need to

75:04 this one's gonna be faster than the . All right. So intrinsic,

75:12 right, injuries taking place on the , just a micro tear or something

75:16 that. I don't need the tissue to say, hey, damage is

75:20 place. What will happen is some of foreign surface will activate factor 12

75:25 then through a series of cascades, you'll do is you'll ultimately activate factor

75:31 . All right. So the key here is the, the bottom is

75:35 be factor 10. All right. takes a little bit of time for

75:40 to happen. It takes somewhere between and six minutes. Are we friends

75:44 this class? Can we talk about things? Yeah, we are.

75:50 many you guys like to pick your ? You know, like you have

75:53 little tiny scab and you pick at ? Yeah. OK. And then

75:56 breaks, then what do you, do you have, you have the

75:58 blood and what do you do with ? Do you do that?

76:04 just, just us two, You do. No, no.

76:08 . Yeah. Yeah, I'm looking here, you got that big old

76:13 on your face, like, maybe. No, man, you're

76:16 out on some fun. I it's like, yeah, you,

76:21 blowing on the sc, see, know, you, you dig a

76:25 bit deeper and all of a sudden like, yeah, you know,

76:26 do do that, huh? You , I scraped my knuckle against the

76:30 . I got the scab. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You

76:35 the itch and then you scratch at . Yeah. Ok. Yeah.

76:38 right. Now, notice what happens , right? And I'm, I'm

76:42 that particular thing out is because you the little bubble of blood,

76:45 The little little droplet of blood. what do you do is it takes

76:49 3 to 6 minutes for it to , right? So, this would

76:52 an example of the intrinsic pathway. not like there's damage that's happened

76:57 There's already just an open vessel and just like, oop, I'm just

77:00 let the blood come out and it's take a little bit of time.

77:03 extrinsic pathway. On the other is very, very quick. It

77:06 incredibly quickly. All right. And what we're doing is we're, we're

77:11 on some sort of tissue damage and it's the tissue itself that's sending out

77:15 signal. It's saying, hey, has occurred here and that activates the

77:20 . And again, it's gonna be these factors. Factor seven, ultimately

77:25 factor 10. So notice each of have their own little pathway. One's

77:31 , one sh uh ones uh uh and why we have two of

77:37 they probably developed independently of each other the body just preserved them.

77:43 what will happen is when you activate 10, there's a whole bunch of

77:45 things. There's gonna be this common and these will stay, you'll keep

77:50 pathways going until that clot is actually . All right. And what you're

77:56 do is you're gonna create an you're basically gonna activate more and more

78:00 . Now, the common pathway, are where you do need the

78:03 Now, there are some plasma So each one of those t tho

78:07 factors, right? Those uh TF , so on and so forth.

78:12 they are uh or the factory 10 whatnot. They are plasma proteins,

78:17 there already. And so all they're for is that signal to get the

78:22 running reactivated. So there's a couple others, we have a uh a

78:26 protein called prothrombin. And we already about uh fibrinogen being present. And

78:31 these are just molecules that are but they're not active yet. What

78:34 need to do is we need to them. And so the first thing

78:38 gonna do is we're gonna take factor and we're gonna take prothrombin So this

78:43 that platinum protein and that factor five we bring them together and now we

78:48 the prothrombin activator and what it does it's going to take this activator.

78:53 it's all this stuff together and it's take prothrombin and it's going to turn

78:57 into thrombin. Now, I'm just tell you a hint. Now thrombin

79:01 everything. All right. And then the prothrombin does is after it activates

79:07 . Thrombin goes and says, here's that other plasma protein fibrinogen.

79:12 I'm gonna convert it into its active fibrin. And then what fibrin is

79:16 do is fibrin is then gonna be linked with other fibrin molecules and it's

79:20 create this mesh work that basically holds platelets in place. And so it's

79:25 helps establish the clot. Yeah, , there's so much more story here

79:32 I already run out of time. was getting excited to tell you all

79:35 this. We're gonna stop on this here. I'm, no,

79:39 no, no. I wanna tell what the Raman does. I said

79:41 does everything. And if we walk of here without knowing that, then

79:44 gonna all fade from your brain and gonna have to start all over

79:47 OK. So here's what it This is a protease. All

79:50 it activates downstream factors. So what it activate? It converts fiber ingen

79:55 fibrin? It also activates this last to help create that strong network.

80:01 throm is key in forming the All right. What does thrombin do

80:06 the top side? Well, on top side, it is the activator

80:10 both of these systems, it activates . You kit thrombin, it activates

80:16 activator. And so you make more more. So you get this massive

80:20 , it activates the pathway through the pathway. It activates the pathway over

80:26 , activating factor five to get our . It is a key key

80:34 All right. So that molecule becomes , really important. The other thing

80:41 it's gonna do is that it's activating . And what's it telling the platelets

80:45 do? Keep sending out the social . And then what is it doing

80:51 to the, in, in the cells? Tell those platelets to get

80:55 my lawn? Do you see it's all sorts of things? This is

81:01 it's the key factor. Now, over by a minute. I

81:05 but I had to finish up with Raman. When we come back.

81:09 talk about how we
