Exam3Lec3Nsaids Flashcards
What are eicosanoids? 4 points
all eicosanoids LY
- autocoids: local hormone, aurtocrine, paracrine
- Oxygenated products of polyunsat long chain fatty acids
- Large family of compouinds
- Short 1/2 life
What needs to occur in order for eicosanoid synthesis to occur?
arachidonic acid that is stored in the phospholipid bilayer but be released by Phospholipids: phospholipase A2 (PLA2).
arachidonic acid is the precursor
After arachidonic is released from the cell membrane, it be oxygenated by four separate routes, what are they?
Lipoxygenase
Epoxygenase
Cyclooxygenase
Free Radicals (nonenz)
What an important target for Nsaids and acetominophens?
Cyclooxygenase
What are 4 factors that determine the type of eicosanoid synthesized from arachidonic acid?
- The type of cell
- Cell phenotype
- Type of cellular stimulation(trauma vs. housekeeping)
- Type of polyunsaturated long chain fatty acid.
What are the 3 isoxymes of Cyclooxygenase (PGH synthase)?
Cox-1
Cox-2
Cox-3
Cox-1 (3 points)
- Constitutively expressed (always turned-on)
- Important hosukeeping functions
- Gastric protection
housekeeping
Cox-2 (3 points)
- Inducible
- Early response gene product to inflammation & immune cells
- Incr in expression by growth factors, tumors, cytokines
trauma
cox2 is induced of there is inflammation and infection of cell
Cox-3
- Shares the catalytic & key structural features of COX-1/2
- Expressed by the COX-1 gene
- APAP inhibitor of CNS COX-3 → analgesia.
gene product of Cox-1
What are the 5 GPCR receptors for Eicosanoids and their respective ligand
- DP1->PGD2
- EP1->PGE2
- FPA,B->PGF2α
- IP ->PGI2
- TPα,β->TXA2
all the same letters
What are the three phases of Inflammation?
- Acute
- Immune
- Chronic
What is acute inflammation?
- Initial response to tissue injury, releases autocoids
- PGI2 & PGE2 mediate vasodilation, vascular permeability, chemotaxis & pain
mediated by autocoids
What is the immune response for inflammation?
- Acitvation of T-cells and B-cells
- Benefiical: kill foreign organisms
- Deleterious: perpetuates chronic inflammation without resolution
What is chronic inflammation?
- Release of mediators (unique to this phase)
- Interleukins 1,2,3 cause lymphocyte activation & prostaglandin production
- Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) from macrophages can cause prostaglandin production
What are 5 mechansisms of gastroduodenal cytoprotection?
-
Maintaining mucosal blood flow → Counteracts mucosal ischemia by ulcerogens
2.Increased mucus secretion → Maintain neutral pH at cell surface
3.Increased bicarbonate secretion → Neutralize gastric acid
4.Reduced epithelial H+ permeability → Protect mucosa from H+ permeability
5.Increased cell turnover → Replace damaged cells with new cells
if any of these are damaged it can lead to ulcers
if we decr prostaglandins, w/nsaids we see neg GI effects
What is Rheumatoid arthritis (RA)?
- Chronic inflammation of the synovial tissue lining the joint capsule resulting in the proliferation of this tissue (pannus)
- This leads to destruction of small joints in hands,wrist, and feet
can occur at any age
What is Osteoarthritis (OA) ?
- Affects primarily the weight-bearing joints.
- Causes pain, limitation of motion, deformation & progressive disability, e.g., knees, hips & spine
most common form of joint disease
What drugs are salicylates?
Aspirin (hy), Salicylate
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
MOA
- Non-selective inhibitor of COX-1/2
- Irreversibly acetylates COX → No enzymatic activity
- More potent inhibitor of COX-1/2 than is its salicylate metabolite
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
Therapeutic use #1
Antinflammatory so its a treatment for RA and OA. It decr PG synthesis and interferes with the kallikrein system:
* Inhibit granulocyte adherence to damaged vasculature
* Stabilize lysosomes
* Inhibit the migration of leukocytes & macrophages to site of inflammation
* ↓ Bradykinin (9AA)
“aspirin does not like kalli and brady”
Bradykinin (9AA) is a potent pain modulator as well
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
Therapeutic use #2
Antipyretic(tx of fever)
ASA blocks
* Production of prostaglandins in response to pyrogens
* Interleukin-1 in the hypothalamus which is produced by macrophages (released during inflammation to activate lymphocytes)
Elevated body temperature caused by an infection is caused by the 2 bullet points
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
Therapeutic use #3 and 4
- Analgesic: Effective in reducing pain of mild to moderate intensity. Acts peripherally on inflammation & probably inhibits pain stimulation, centrally, subcortical site
- Antithrombotic: ↓ TXA2
After Asprin is converted to Salicylate, what products can it turn to and mention the percentages
- Ester and ether glucuronides (5-10%)
- MAJORITY Undergo conjugation w/ glycine to become Salicyluric Acid (75%)
- Free salicylate (10%)-renally eliminated
- undergo oxidation to become Genstisic Acid (1%)
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
SIde effects
A. Gastric
B. CNS
C. Kidney
D. Allergy
E. Syndrome
F. Liver
A. Gastric: Undissolved tablet directly irritates the gastric mucosa and incr incidence of gastric & duodenal ulcers
B. CNS: salicylism at high doses, reversible tinnitus hyperpnea incr ventilation
C. Kidney: reversible decr of glomerular filtration rate by Inhibition of PG’s E1, E2, I2
D. Allergy: Urticaria, edema, bronchospasm, rhinitis
E. Syndrome: Reye Syndrome for ages <15, fatal
F. Liver: fatty liver with encephalopathy, viral infection follows
to avoid viral inf give children APAP or IBU during viral infections
Salicylates impair cellular respiration by doing what?
uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation which is a possible mechanism for hyperthermia at toxic doses
can also eliminate uric acid at low dose
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
Drug Interactions
- Ethanol: incr GI bleeding
- Methotrexate: Displaced from protein binding sites & decr renal excretion (incr concern which is pancytopenia)
- Warfarin: Additive effects on bleeding
- Valproic acid: Displaced from protein binding sites & incr clearance(more drowsiness)
- Spironolactone: Inhibit its diuretic effects
- Sulfonylureas (glyburide) & exogenous insulin: salicylates (adds more glucose)
Ethan Met War and Val Surprisingly Spiraled
Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid, ASA)
A. Contraindication
B. Overdose
C. Treatment for overdose
A. Contraindication: pregnancy and pt’s with hemophilia (bleeding), strong cross rxn with ibuprofen
B. Overdose: A frequent cause of poisoning in young children
C. Treatment for overdose:
* Activated charcoal
* Hyperthermia: alcohol sponges or ice packs
* Maintain a high urine output with sodium bicarbonate (alkalinize the urine and incr salicylate excretion)
if you overdose in aspirin, give sodium bicarb (NaHCO3) becuase it a base and it will neutralize the acidity by incr elimination. It cleaves protein off so you have more of the ionized form.
What are the nonacetylated salicylates?
- Choline Salicylate
- Magnesium Salicylate
- Sodium Salicylate
- Sodium Thiosalicylate
- Salsalate
- Methyl salicylate
Are nonacetylated salicylates effective anti-inflammatory drugs? Why or why not?
They are effective anti-inflamm but they are less less effective analgesics than ASA because they are less effective COX-1/2 inhibitors. Therefore, these are more preferable for pts that have asthma, bleeding, renal, etc.
Similar problems as with ASA, except for specific acetylation problems
