Q

Membrane phospholipids to arachidonic acid - pathways (and steps)

A

2 pathways:
1. (leukotriene synthesis) arachidonic acid –> 5-HPETE
(5-lipoxygenase) –> Leukotrienes

Q

acetaminophen - reversible or irreversible inhibition of COX

A

REVERSIBLE

30
Q

Aspirin - mechanism of action

A

irreversible inhibits COX (both 1/2) via covalent acetylation, which decreases synthesis of TXA2 and prostaglandins. Effects lasts until new new platelets produced
ITS A TYPE OF NSAID

A

no effect

32
Q

Aspirin - bleeding time

A

increased

33
Q

Intermediate dose (300-2400mg/day) --> antypyretic and analgesic
High dose (2400-4000mg/day) --> anti-inflammatory
34
Q

Aspirin - side effects

A

Q

Aspirin - pH disturbances

A

respiratory alkalosis early (hyperventilation)

transition to mixed metabolic acidosis-respiratory alkalosis

Q

Celecoxib spares COX-1 - clinical importance

A

maintain gastric mucosa

40
Q

celecoxib vs other NSAID according side effects

A

celecoxib does not have the corrosive effects of ther NSAID on the GI lining

41
Q

beside gastric mucosa, celecoxib spares …. function (why)

A

it spares platelet function as TXA2 production is depended on COX-1
