Q

calcium channel blockers inhibit which enzyme?

A

mypsin light chain kinase

17
Q

how do calcium channel blockers inhinit myosin light chain kinase?

A

inhibit calcium induced calcium release

18
Q

how do beta blockers treat angina?

A

increase supply and reduce demand of oxygen

19
Q

how do beta blockers reduce demand of oxygen?

A

inhibit sympathetic activity
reduces force and rate of contraction
reduces work

20
Q

how do beta blockers increase supply of oxygen?

A

inhibit sympathetic activity
reduced heart rate
extended diastole
increased filling time

21
Q

how does nicorandil cause vasodilation?

A

K channels and nitrix oxide

22
Q

how does nicorandil decrease demand

A

vasodilation of arteries reduces afterload

23
Q

how does nicorandil increase oxygen supply?

A

vasodilation of coronary arteries

24
Q

nicorandil reduces venous return and preload and therefore reduces…

A

wall stress and increases sub endo perfusion

25
Q

activation of K channels prevents which channels from opening?

A

L-type calcium channel

26
Q

how does nicorandil increase NO

A

nitic oxide donor
