Lecture 2- bacterial protein synthesis inhibitors Flashcards
what are the types of 30S protein synthesis inhibitors? (3)
- tetracyclins
- glycylcycline
- aminoglycosides
types of 50s protein synthesis inhi (3)
- macrolides
- clindamycin
- linezolid
tetracycline MOA
enter organism via passive diffusion and transport protein mech (energy dep)
concentrate intracellularly in susceptible org
drug binds reversibly to 30s subunti of bacterial ribosome–> prevent binding of tRNA to A site of complex–> inhibit bacterial protein synthesis
tetracycline absorption? ROA
good bioavail
best on empty stomach
oral
what decreases tetracycline absorption? (2)
- dairy prod
- containing divalent and trivalent cations
properties of tetracycline (3)
- bacteriostatic ab
- activity against broad spectrum of gram pos, gram neg and atypical bacteria and spirochete bac
- inadequate activity against ps. aeruginosa and proteus
types of tetracycline (3)
- tetracycline
- doxycycline
- minocycline
tetracycline elimination
by kkdney
doxycycline elim
largerly excreted unchanged in bile and urine
minocycline elim
extensively met by liver before excretion
type of glycylcycline (1)
tigecycline
benefits of glycylcycline over tetra (2)
- expanded spectrum of act
- decreased susceptibility to dev of resistance
what are the mechs of tetracyline resistance glycylcycline is designed to overcome? (2)
- resistance mediated by acquired efflux pump
- ribosomal protection
tigecycline MOA
bind to bac 30s ribosome–> block entry to tRNA (similar to minocycline)
why does tigecycline have lower sus to resistance?
it has good binding affinity to ribosomes so its less likely to be dislodged by TET O and TET M proteins
ROA of tigecycline
IV- poor oral bioavail
tigecycline distribution?
- penetrates well into tissue but low plasma conc
- poor option for bloodstream infection
tigecycline elim?
biliary/fecal
what is the spectrum of tigecycline
- MRSA
- multidrug resistant streptococci
- vancomycin resistant enterococci
- extended spectrum beta lactamase gram neg bac
- community acquired pneumonia
tigecycline and tetra SE (4)
- gastric discomfort
- effects of calcified tissues- discolouration of teeth eg. grey, temporary stunting of growth
- hepatotoxicity
- ## phototoxicity
tigecycline and tetra CI (2)
- pregnant
- < 8yo- may cause permanent teeth discolouration
types of aminoglycosides (5)
- gentamicin
- streptomycin
- tobramycin
- amikacin
- neomycin
aminoglycosides MOA
distort structure of ribosom by binding to them and blocking formation of initiation complex, cause misreading of codons, inihibit translocation
aminoglycosides absorption and ROA
poor oral bioavail– parenteral
aminoglycosides clearance
renal, need dose adjustt
which drug has post antibiotic effect (PAE)?
aminoglycosides
what is PAE
even tho drug conc has dropped below MEC, can still see effect mainly coz drug has doen something to bacteria and this bacteria needs to recover
antimicrobial spectrum of aminoglycosides
- broad spectrum
- primarily effective against aerobic gram neg and mycobacteria
