Ch. 39 Protein synthesis inhibitors Flashcards
may cause toxic effects as a result of interaction with mitochondrial mammalian ribosomes
chloramphenico or the tetracyclines
ribosomes composed of 30S and 50S subunits
bacterial ribosomes
ribosomes composed of 40S and 60S subunits
mammalian ribosomes
consists of 4 fused rings with a system of conugated double bonds
tertracyclines
enter susceptible organisms via passive diffusion and also by an energy-dependent transport protein mechanism unique to the bacterial inner cytoplasmic membrane
tetracyclines
binds reversibly to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome , preventing binding of tRNA to the mRNA-ribosome complex, thereby inhibiting bacterial proetin synsthesis
tetracyclines
bacteriostatic antibiotics
against : gram(+) and (-)
protozoa, spirochetes , mycobacteria , atypical
tetracyclines
tetrayclines treatment
acne and chlamydia infections (doxycycline)
naturally occuring resistance to tetracyclines
efflux pump that expels drug out of the cell
-prevents intracellular accumulation
Spirochete: Lyme disease : cause , s/s (signs and symptoms), treatment
Borrelia burdorferi, bite of infected ticks,
skin lesions, headache and fever, followed by meningoencephalitis and evetually arthritis
bull’s eye pattern rash with a red outer ring (erhema migrans.
doxycycline
Cholera
cause , s/s (signs and symptoms), treatment
fecally contaminated food or water (vibrio cholerae)
enterotoxin that produces diarrhea
doxycycline
Chlamydial infections
cause , s/s (signs and symptoms), treatment
Chlamydia trachomatis
-nongonococcal , urethritis, PID, lymphogranuloma venerum
Chlamydia psittaci
-pneumonia, hepatitis, myocarditis , coma
doxycyline or azithromycin
mycoplasma pneumoniae
cause , s/s (signs and symptoms), treatment
mycoplasma pneumoniae
community-acquired pneumonia
—-military camps
Macrolide or doxycycline
Rocky Mountain Spotted fever
cause , s/s (signs and symptoms), treatment
rickettsia rickettsii
-fever, chills, aches in bones and joints
tetracyclines-started early in the disease process
dairy products will create nonabsorbable chelates thus decrease oral absorption for ?
-divalent and trivalent cations: mg and aluminum anta acids or iron supplements
tetracyclines
tetracyclines that are oral and IV
minocycline and doxycycline
where do tetracyclines concentrate?
bile, liver, kidney, gingival fluid, and skin
minocycline and doxycycline achieve therapeutic levels in the
CSF
achieves high levels in saliva and tears, eradicating the meningococcal carrier state
minocycline
tetracycline is primarily eliminated unchanged in
urine
not hepatically metabolized
tetracycline and doxycycline
undergoes hepatic metabolism
minocycline
- lesser extent in kidney
in renally compromised patients we prefer?
because?
doxycycline
because eleminated via bile into feces
adverse effects of tetracyclines
gastric discomfort, calcified tissues, hepatotoxicity , phototxicity (severe sunburn), vestibular dysfunction, pseudotumor cerebri,
Contraindication of tetracyclines:
less than 8yrs of age
pregnant
lactation
tetracycline should be taken on an empty or full stomach?
empty stomach
why is tetracycline CI in the kids less than 8yrs of age
deposition in the bone and primary dentition occurs during the calcification process in growing children
-discoloration and hypoplasia of teeth and temporary stunting of growth
why do people taking tetracycline and demeclocycline need to wear adequate sun protection?
phototoxicity
–severe sunburn
minocycline and doxycycline have a common adverse effect, what is it?
vestibular dysfunction,
dizziness, vertigo, and tinnitus
benign intracranial hypertension : headache and blurred vision
tetracyclines
Protein inhibitor Group: tetracyclines
demeclocycline
doxycycline
minocycline
tetracycline
Protein inhibitor Group: Aminoglycosides
drivin a “Stang”!
Streptomycin, tobramycin, amikacin, neomycin, amikacin, gentamicin
Protein inhibitor Group: Macrocyclic
think “Mother Fucker”
thus, Macrocyclic:
-Fidaxomicin
Protein inhibitor Group: Macrolides/Ketolides
azithromycin,
clarithromycin
erythromycin
telithromycin
Protein inhibitor Group: Lincosamides
clindamycin
Protein inhibitor Group: oxazolidinones
linezolid
Protein inhibitor Group: others
cloramphenicol
quinupristin/dalfopristin
what are the Protein inhibitor Group?
tetracyclines glycylcyclines aminoglycosides macrolides/ketolides macrocyclic oxazolidinones
Protein inhibitor Group: Glycylcyclines
tigecyclines
- minocycline derivative
- treatment of complicated skin and soft tissue infections
- intra-abdominal infections
Tigecycline
tigecycline MOA:
bacteriostatic
- reversibily binding 30S ribosomal subunit
- inhibits protein synthesis
Tigercycline
tigecycline is not active against
morganella
proteus
providencia
pseudomonas species
resistance of tigecycline is due to
overexpression of efflux pumps
dose reduction is recommended in sever hepatic dysfunction
tigecycline
-route of elimination is biliary/fecal
poor option for bloodstream infections
tigecycline
acute pancreatitis , fatality, nausea, vomiting , photosensitivity, pseudotumor cerebri, discoloration of permanent teeth when used during tooth development, teratogenic
adverse effects for tigecycline
elevation in liver enzymes and creatinine
tygecycline
decrease the clearance of warfarin and increase prothrombin time
tygecycline
-monitor closely when tigecycline is coadministered with warfarin.
aminoglycosides treatment
serious infections due to aerobic gram(-) bacilli
-clinical utility is limited by serious toxicities
