Q

Motor neuron potential and muscle contraction pathway

- steps

A
  1. AP open Ca channels -> Ach released
  2. Ach binds to receptor on muscle cell and causes depolarization
  3. Depolarization goes down T-tubules
  4. dihyrdopuridine receptor and ryandine receptor change shapre -> open SR -> Ca released
  5. Ca binds to troponin C -> deactivates tropomyosin -> myosin binding sites exposed on actin
  6. myosin binds actin -> ATP to ADP -> causing myosin to to move actin and cause muscle to contract -> ADP is released and myosin unbinds
  7. If Ca remains then myosin will bind actin again and wait for another ATP

Q

Vascular SM relaxation

- steps

A

115
Q

acetaminophen

  • MOA
  • tox
  • tox treatment
A
  • selective for COX2, but lack anti-inflammatory propoerties so only helps with pain and fever
  • metabolized in liver by CYP450 to NAPQi form which is toxic, normally converted to non-toxic glutathione immediately but when there is too much cannot handle and toxic metabolite builds up and damages hepatocytes
  • activated charcoal w/i 4 hours of taking the meds, and administer n-acetylcysteine
116
Q

acute gout tx

A
  • inhibits xanthine oxidase, tumor lysis syndrome, rash (SJS)

  • converts UA into water soluble allantoin, anaphylaxis and hemolytic anemia in pts with G6PD definiciency, IV in patient
118
Q

Glucocorticoids

  • suffix
  • MOA
  • labs
  • side effects
  • importance of taper
  • chronic side effects
A
  • sone
  • prevents the up regulation of PLA2 -> preventing formation of AA and other inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and NFkappaB
  • increase in PMNs because they arent able to migrate to spot of inflammation; also inhibit T and B cell, eosinophils, and Ig creation and release
  • hyperglycemia (cause insulin resistance and stimulate gluconeogenesis), cushing syndrome (muscle weakness, adipose deposition in abdomen, thinning of skin, decrease bone mass)
  • glucocorticoids mimic cortisol and will cause negative feedback on ACTH, so need to allow for re-balancing of endogenous hormones
  • osteoperosis -> avascular necrosis of hip, psychosis, hypokalemia (can also act like aldosterone -> increase Na reabsorption and K excretion)
119
Q

Osteoporosis Tx

  • bisphosphonates: suffix. MOA, other uses, side effects
  • estrogen therapy, risks
  • SERMS; MOA
  • Denosumab; MOA
  • Calcitonin: MOA, other uses
A
  • dronate; attach to hydroxyappetite and prevent osteoclasts reabsorbing bone, prevent osteoclast formation and induce osteoclasts apoptosis; pagets dx and hyper Ca; acid reflux -> esophagitis/ulcers (take w/ lots of water and remain upright for 30 min), osteonecrosis of jaw, hypo Ca
  • treat and prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis, breast CA -> not recommended
  • bind to estrogen receptor on specific tissues that mimic action of estrogen; raloxifen -> agonist, preventing bone resorption
  • MAB against RANKL -> prevents activation of osteoclasts
  • binds to osteoclasts and inhibits resorption and increases Ca excretion, more useful for hyper Ca and pagets
120
Q

Meds to increase Ca

  • Teriparatide
  • Vit D; activated form, MOA
  • Cinacalcet
  • Sevelamer
A
  • recombinant PTH, when given in small doses will increase osteoblast formation and activation
  • Vit D comes from skin (sun activates it) or from plants and must be activated in kidney to calcitrion, will then increase Ca and phosphate absorption in GI, reabsorption in kidney (PCT-> PO4 and DCT -> Ca); increase in serum Ca will decrease PTH and stop reabsorption of bone; will increase bone turnover by activating both osteoblasts and clasts
  • activates Ca sensing receptor in parathyroid gland to decrease production of PTH
  • Decreases absorption of phosphate in GI tract; phosphate binds to Ca in serum and decreases free Ca -> by decreasing phosphate absorption you have more free Ca
