Q

Bisoprolol moa

A

Inhibits binding of normal ligand noradrenaline released from sympathetic adrenergic neurones. This inhibits activation of adenylyl cyclase enzymes leading to reduced cyclic AMP. This in turn leads to reduced intracellular calcium levels.

28
Q

what does NO do

A

stimulates guanylate cyclase enzymes to increase production of the second messenger cyclic GMP

29
Q

name a potassium channel opener

A

Nicorandil

30
Q

nicorandil drug class

A

Potassium channel activator

31
Q

nicorandil two moas

A

Potassium channel activator

Nitrate like effect

32
Q

how does nicorandil work as a k+ channel activator

A

Opens ATP-dependent potassium channels, causing K+ to leave the cell. This results in hyperpolarisation of the cell membrane, closure of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and a reduction in intracellular calcium.

33
Q

nicorandil nitrate moa

A

Stimulates guanylate cyclase enzymes to increase production of the second messenger cyclic GMP (cGMP). This inhibits the entry of calcium ions into the cell leading to reduced intracellular calcium levels.

34
Q

Anti-platelet agents

A
Aspirin
Clopidogrel
Ticagrelor
Dipyridamole
Tirofiban
35
Q

aspirin target

A

COX

36
Q

aspirin moa

A

Impairs synthesis of thromboxane A2 and prostacyclin = platelets cant aggregate

37
Q

aspirin bad side effect

A

GI irritation, ulceration and bleeding

Bronchospasm

38
Q

what can be co prescribed with aspirin to avoid GI upset

A

PPI

39
Q

dipyridamole drug class

A

antiplatelet

40
Q

dipyridamole 3 moas

A
  1. Inhibitor of platelet phosphodiesterase
  2. Blocks adenosine uptake into RBCs,
  3. Potentiation of PGI2 anti-aggregatory activity and enhancement of PGI2 biosynthesis
41
Q

dipyridamole bad adverse effects

A

Haemorrhage;
Hypotension;
Worsening symptoms of coronary artery disease

42
Q

what happens if adenosine cant get into RBCs

A

increases plasma adenosine levels which has a vasodilatory and anti-platelet effect

43
Q

what happens if platelet phosphodiesterase is inhibited

A

cyclic AMP concentration is increased and platelet activity reduced

44
Q

Isosorbide dinitrate is used to treat what

A

angina

45
Q

what is Isosorbide dinitrate converted to

A

NO

46
Q

Isosorbide dinitrate moa

A

converted to NO which activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase stimulates synthesis of cGMP which activates a series of protein kinase-dependent phosphorylations in the smooth muscle cells, eventually resulting in the dephosphorylation of the myosin light chain of the smooth muscle fiber. The subsequent release of calcium ions results in the relaxation of the smooth muscle cells and vasodilation.

47
Q

ivabradine aim

A

48
Q

what is guanylate cyclase

A

49
Q

50
Q

ivabradine moa

A
