Pharmaceutcial Chemistry of CVS drugs III Flashcards
1
Q
Arrhythmia
A
- Heart rhythm problems, abnormal heart rhythm, caused by different
factors
2
Q
What diseases do you use beta blockers
A
- Hypertension
- Arrhythmia
- Angina
- MI
- CHF
3
Q
What are Adrenoceptors?
A
- G protien coupled receptors that conotain an amine group and a catechol group (benzene with 2 alcohols)
- Small-molecule binding characteristics to be clinically significant in pharmacotherapeutics
4
Q
Targets of Catecholamines
A
- Norepinephrine with R group of H
- Epinephrine with R group of CH3
5
Q
α-receptors
A
- α1 = α1A, α1B, and α1D
- α2 = α2A, α2B, and α2C
6
Q
β-receptors
A
- β1, β2, and β3 subtypes
7
Q
Adrenoceptors location
A
- Various organs and tissues as well as on neurons of both the peripheral nervous system and central nervous system
8
Q
β1 major in the heart
A
- All β-blockers affinity for β1 inhibit binding norepinephrine/epinephrine
- Slow heart rate/decreased myocardium contractile
9
Q
β1 in kidney
A
- All β-blockers affinity for β1
- Decrease secretion of renin
- Decrease plasma levels of angiotensin II causing vasodialation
10
Q
β2 major in CNS
A
- Increased sympathetic activity
- β1selective drugs can also
produce CNS side effects
11
Q
β2 vascular, lungs, uterus smooth muscle
A
- Arterial dilation
- Bronchodilation
- Uterus muscle relaxation
12
Q
β2 agonist
A
- Alleviating respiratory distress in
persons with asthma or used to inhibit uterine contractions in premature labour
13
Q
𝛼1 stimulation of smooth muscle of the peripheral vasculature
A
- Constriction
causing a rise in blood pressure
14
Q
α1antagonist
A
- Relaxation of the blood vessels and a drop in blood pressure
15
Q
Extracelluar structure of Adrenoceptors
A
- Crystal structure of the human β2 adrenoceptor
16
Q
Membrane structure of Adrenoceptors
A
- 7 Trans Membrane (TM) helices
17
Q
Intracellular structure of Adrenoceptors
A
- Contains Protein G
