The main goal of recessively inherited coagulation disorder (RICD) treatment is to prevent and control spontaneous and surgery-related bleeding episodes. Specifically, therapeutic options improve hemostasis via replacement of deficient blood coagulation factors while minimizing the development of immune tolerance.20...

It is believed that heparin acts by neutralizing a number of active blood coagulation factors, thus disrupting the transformation of prothrombin into thrombin. Heparin is used to prevent thrombo-formation in myocardial infarctions, thrombosis, and embolism, for maintaining liquid conditions in the blood in artificial blood drcnlation and hemodialysis. Synonyms of this drug are arteven, hepalen, leparan, Uquemin, panheprin, vetren, and many others. 

Dermal/Ocular Effects. Very few reports mention any effect of carbon tetrachloride inhalation on the skin. Inhalation exposure to carbon tetrachloride for several days in the workplace caused a blotchy, macular rash in one man (but not in six others) (McGuire 1932). Similarly, a hemorrhagic rash occurred in a woman exposed to carbon tetrachloride fumes for several days in the workplace (Gordon 1944), and black and blue marks were seen in a patient exposed intermittently to carbon tetrachloride vapors for several years (Straus 1954). Because observations of dermal effects are so sporadic, it is difficult to judge whether these effects are related to carbon tetrachloride exposure, or are incidental. Conceivably, they may have been secondary to reduced synthesis of blood coagulation factors resulting from carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity. No studies were located regarding ocular effects in humans or animals after inhalation exposure to carbon tetrachloride.

Protein C functions as an anticoagulant by proteolytically inactivating two protein cofactors of blood coagulation, factors V and VIII.402 It too circulates in a zymogen form and is activated by limited proteolysis. Protein C appears to contain about 16 sites for Ca2+, all of equal affinity, while activated protein C binds about nine Ca2+. Conformational rearrangement during activation results in loss of binding sites.
