Q

Furosemide mechanism of action

A

Loop diuretic - main location of action is thick ascending limb of loop of Henle - Block Na+-K+-2Cl transporter in luminal membrane of loop of Henle preventing reabsorption of Na+ from tubular lumen -> decrease Na+ in medullary interstitial -> decreased osmolary gradient -> decreased urine concentration -> decreased H2O retention -> decreased blood volume -> decreased blood pressure

Q

enalapril mechanism of action

A
  • converted by liver to active compound enalprilat which competes with angiotensin I for ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) (ACE has higher affinity for Enalaprilat than angiotensin I) -> prevents formation angiotensin-II which is a vasoconstrictor - decreased angiotensin-II [] -> decreased aldosterone secretion and plasma renin activity increased - decreases total peripheral resistance, pulmonary vascular resistance, mean arterial and R atrial pressures, and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure - increase renal blood flow and decrease glomerular efferent arteriole resistance

Q

spironolactone mechanism of action

A

competitively binds mineralocorticoid receptor -> release heat shock protein 90 -> inhibits production of aldosterone-induced proteins and blocks effects of aldosterone ie -> dec Na+ uptake b/c aldosterone normally increases synthesis of lumina Na+ channels and increases K+ channels increasing K+ secretion driving force secondary to Na+ secretion so if inhibit aldosterone inhibit the luminal Na+ channels and in turn inhibit that secondary K+ secretion ** At low doses does not have diuretic effects**
