More Kidney - drugs Flashcards
ADPKD
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
ADPKD genes
PKD 1 encodes polycystin 1 - chromosome 16. Dialysis by 53
PKD 2 encodes polycystin 2, chromosome 4, layer dialysis. LEss common
Pathophysiology of ADPKS
PC1 complexes with PC2 - regulates PC2 channel activity. If apical cilia bends, complex activated, calcium influx and CAMP activated - increased sensitivity of CD to ADH. CFTR gene also inclides.
PKD1 types`
Can be truncating or nontruncating, truncating is more prevalent and severe
Kidney size class
1a-1e, bigger kidneys increase PCKD risk and indicates prognosis
Associated conditions in ADPCKD
Cerevral aneurysms, liver cysts (but no impaired function), abdo aortic aneurism, diverticular disease, bronchiectassi, LV hypertrophy, mitral valve prolapse
Genetic risk?
Autosomal dominant, but needs two hits, so some people will not develop cysts. Screening not recommended, but U/S cyst detection is prognostic. Can also use MRI (need more cysts on MRI to diagnose)
ADPCKD Tx
Good BP control (<110/75), doesn’t affect GFR but does give smaller kidneys. Often use ACEi/ARB (but in women of childbearing, consider CCBs/diuretics). Tolvaptan (ADH inhibitor, reduces AQP2 and cAMP). - ADEs, thirst, polyuria, nocturia, headache, dry mouth). Can mimic tolvaptan by drinking lots of water
Bartter’s syndrome
Affects Na/K/2CL in ALoH - leads to hypomagnesia, hypocalcaemia. PRevents infancy/prenatal. Severe lack of concentrating capacity, GFR may be normal or declining.
Gitelman’s
Affects thiazide (Na/Cl) in DCT. Causes hypomagnesaemia. Urine calcium excretion may be reduced. Concentrating capcity normal or slightly impaired. GFR normal.
OAT
Organic acid transporters. Used for uric acid, drugs etc. Active transport with Tm
OCT
Organic cation transporters. Facilitated diffusion. DA, choline, drugs transport
Dose adjustment importantin KD when:
CRCl<50ml/min
Drug >50% renally excreted
Drug with NTW
Age
Effect of urea on BBB
Increases permability so increased sensitivity to drugs in CNS in renal impairment
AKI definition?
a) increase in SCr within 48h
b) Increase in SCr 1.5x baseline in 7 days
c) URine volume <0.5mL/Kg/H) in adults for 6+ hours
d) Decrease in eGFR
Prostaglandin effect on GFR?
Normally vasodilate afferent arteriole, increasing GFR. Therefore NSAID block of PG can decrease GFR
Angiotensin effect on GFR
Vasoconstricts. Predominantly on efferent arteriole, but higher ANG II causes both to constrict (although efferent constricts more to maintain GFR)
Therefore, ACEi/ARBs can decrease GFR
CKD -EPI
Sex, SCr, age, ethnicity and formula changes depedning on Creatinine range (accommodates nonlinear GFR/Creatinine relationship)
Parameters affecting cystatin C
Smoking, inflammation, corticosteroids, diabetes, obesity, thyroid
Small Vd drug kidney disease effects
If dehydrated, drugs with small Vd will be more affected and have increased plasma concentration
Where is urea secreted by UT-A2
DLoH
Ammonia secreted by 2GP /rhesus transporters?
