1. Platelet activation through: |
a. Direct complement activity |
b. Reactive oxygen species |
c. Endothelial dysfunction |
d. Thrombin activation |
2. Deficiency of u-PAR (although may only be significant in the presence of red cell microparticles) |
3. Deficiency of heparan sulfate |
4. Deficiency of TFPI |
5. Deficiency of PR3 |
6. Endothelial cell activation |
7. C5a mediated mechanisms |
a. Increase in inflammatory cytokines |
b. Downregulation of ADAMTS-13 |
8. Generation of tissue factor and PAI1 from PNH monocytes and neutrophils |
9. Decreased levels of protein S |
10. Protein C resistance because of increased factor VIII activity |
11. Thrombin activation of the complement system perpetuating mechanisms above |
