Q

V2R mechanism

A

Gs–>cAMP–>PKA, which:

  • moves aquaporin vesicles to apical membrane
  • phosphorylates aquaporin-2
  • phosphorylates VRUT (UT1)

20
Q

polydipsia

A

drink a lot of water b/c increased thirst

21
Q

how to distinguish (clinically) b/t types of DI

A

administer V2R agonist

  • central DI: increase urine osmolarity (concentrates urine, aka H2O reabsorbs)
  • nephrogenic DI: no change
22
Q

Tx of central DI

A

synthetic vasopressin peptides

selective V2R agonists: desmopressin

23
Q

desmopressin MOA

A

selective V2R agonist

minimal V1R effects

24
Q

desmopressin ROA

A

nasally
IV
oral tablet

25
Q

desmopressin clinical uses

A

central DI
bleeding disorders (increase factor VIII & vWF via extrarenal V2R)
nocturnal enuresis

26
Q

Tx of nephrogenic DI

A

maintain adequate H2O intake

thiazide diuretics

27
Q

thiazide diuretic MOA in DI

A

inhibit NCCT in DCT

  • mild depletion of ECF H2O&Na+
  • compensatory increase in PCT reabsorption
  • less volume delivered to DCT
28
Q

V1R agonists

A

terlipressin

29
Q

V1R agonists effect

A

GI & vascular smooth muscle contraction

30
Q

V1R agonists clinical uses

A

post operative ileus
reduce bleeding in
-esophageal varices
-acute hemorrhagic gastritis

31
Q

terlipressin ROA

A

IV (restricted use, less side effects than vasopressin)

32
Q

SIADH mechanism

A

excessive production of ADH

  • impaired H2O excretion (AKA too much reabsorption)
  • plasma hypoosmolarity (hyponatremia)
33
Q

SIADH etiology

A
drug-induced
-psychotropics: SSRI, haloperidol, tricyclic antidepressants
-sulfonylureas: chloropropamide
-vinca alkaloids: vinblastine, vincristine
hypovolemia induced
-CHF
-liver cirrhosis
-nephrotic syndrome
34
Q

SIADH cutoffs (based on Posm)

A

Posm = 125-132mM –> asymptomatic

Posm begin treatment

35
Q

Tx for asymptomatic SIADH

A
water restriction
(IV hypertonic saline)
36
Q

Tx for symptomatic SIADH

A
water restriction
IV hypertonic saline
loop diuretics
demeclocycline
vaptans
37
Q

loop diuretics MOA in SIADH

A

interfere w/kidney concentrating ability

38
Q

demeclocycline MOA

A

technically an antibiotic

also antagonizes ADH at V2R

39
Q

V2R antagonists

A

tolvaptan

conivaptan

40
Q

tolvaptan clinical uses

A

hypervolemic/euvolemic hyponatremia
symptomatic hyponatremia w/CHF, cirrhosis, SIADH
only in hospital

41
Q

tolvaptan metabolism

A

CYP3

42
Q

tolvaptan ADEs

A

hyperglycemia
GI disturbances
clotting problems

43
Q

tolvaptan BBW

A

SLOWLY correct hyponatremia

  • monitor serum Na in the hospital
  • esp. for susceptible patients
  • too rapid can cause osmotic demyelination (and a crap ton of problems with it.. not including those here)
44
Q

pts susceptible to osmotic demyelination

A

severe malnutrition
alcoholics
advanced liver disease

45
Q

conivaptan ROA

A

IV

46
Q

conivaptan clinical uses

A

acute Tx of hyponatremia (in hospital setting)

47
Q

conivaptan metabolism

A

CYP3A4

48
Q

conivaptan ADE

A

infusion site reaction

probably also everything w/tolvaptan..

49
Q

conivaptan selectivity

A

V1a & V2 receptors
