Mechanism of action
It is necessay for final stage of synthesis of coagulation factors : II, VII, IX and X in liver. In synthesis of coagulant proteins Vit. K is converted to an epoxide which is subsequently reduced to active Vit. K.
Menadione acts as a vitamin K analogue, acting as a cofactor in the synthesis of Factor II, VII, IX, X in the liver. The Vitamin K analogue is needed in the step of gamma carboxylation of these factors which renders them capable of binding ca ions to phospholipid surfaces which is essential for the coagulation…
