17
Q

wt binds B1 kinin receptor?

A

bradykinin and kinin active metabolites

18
Q

MOA of triptans? use?

A

5-HT1B/1D agonist. abort migraine pain and induce vasoconstriction

19
Q
Serotonin effect on:
Platelets
CV
GI
CNS
A

Platelets - promotes platelet aggregation
CV - casoconstriction
GI - inc motility
CNS - regulate sensory perception and nociception

20
Q

2 enzymes that metabolize serotonin?

urinary metabolite?

A

MAO then aldehyde dehydrogenase

5-Hydroxyindoeacetic acid (5-HIAA)

21
Q

3 things released upon stimulaiton of B kinin receptors?

A

PGs
NO
EDHF

22
Q

compare AEs of triptans and ergot alkaloids? why?

A

triptans have less AEs

bc more selective for 5-HT1

23
Q

wt cleaves high molecular weight kininogen?

A

plasma kallikrein

24
Q

enzyme that hydrolyzes bradykinin to inactive products?

A

Angiotensin I-Converting Enzyme (ACE/Kinase II)

25
Q

kinin effect on:
inflammation
respiration
CV

A

inflammation - inc permeability –> promote
respiration - bronchospasms
CV - low BP and vasodilate

26
