Cardiac and renal phamacology Flashcards
Tetracaine
Anaesthetic blocking NaV
More anaesthetic at higher pH as more drug in unprotonated form
Lidocaine
Anaesthetic blocking NaV
Use dependent
Benzocaine
Anaesthetic not affect by pH as neutral
Tetrodotoxin
Mainly acts on nerve NaV
L type channels
Node and heart tissue
Sensitive to dihydropyridines
Slowly inactivating
Needs large depolarisation
T type channels
Mainly found in node
Insensitive to dihydropyridines
Phenylalkylamines (Verapamil)
Blocks L type Ca channels from inside
Dihydropyridines (Amlodipine)
Blocks L type channels from inside
Benzothiapines
Block Ca channels from outside and alter dihydropyridine binding
Sulfonurea drugs (Glibenclamide)
Mimics ATP to close kATP channel, depolarise and cause insulin release
Long QT1 and 2
Kv mutations
Long QT3
Nav mutations
Isoprenaline
Beta agonst
Raises cAMP to act on HCN
Used for bradycardia
ACh on nodes
Acts via M2
Causes decreased cAMP so less HCN
betagamma coupled to GIRK1 to hyperpolarise
Adr on heart
Via beta1
Increases cAMP so stimulates HCN
+ PKA opens Ca2+ channels
Quinidine
Blocks NaV
Class 1a antidysrhythmic
Use dependent (higher affinity for activated channels)
