DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.
The coagulation system is antagonized by coagulation inhibitors. This prevents the coagulation from running out of control. It is a no less complicated system. Antagonists of the coagulation system or activators of the inhibitory coagulation system act on activators of the coagulation system.
