15
Q

side effects sirolimus

A

Edema, ascities

tachycardia, HTN

hyperlipidemia, hypokalemia, hypophos

Rash

Lymphocele > can cause ereteric compression in transplant

16
Q

mTOR inhibitor

A

sirolimus

17
Q

death post kidney transplant causes

A

Infection

CVD

Malignancy

18
Q

issue with antiacids in calcineurin inhibitors

A

mg and aluminum antiacids inhibit abs

should wait until 2hrs after calcineurin inhibitor dose

20
Q

interaction with mycophenolate mofetil

antacids, cholstyramine, sevelamer, feso4

A

decrease MPA levels

21
Q

indicated drug class in Neprhotic syndrome

A

ACEi, ARB

24
Q

pharmacokinetics sirolimus

A

oral

abs modulated by p-glycoproteins

metabolized by CYP450

very long half life (60hours)

25
Q

higher impact on lipid levels, cyclosporine or tacrolimus?

A

cyclosporine greater

26
Q

risk of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) with calcineurin inhibitors (Tacrolimus, cyclosporine)

A

increased risk of rhabdomyolysis

bone marrow suppression

27
Q

costimulator Cd80 and Cd86 blocker

A

belatacept

29
Q

side effects tacrolimus

A

pleual effusion

cardial effusion

cardiomyopathy in children

30
Q

mechanism calcineurin inhibitors (Cyclosporine + tacrolimus)

A

bind to cyclphilin (cyclosporine) or FBKP12 (tacrolimus)

complex binds and inhibits calcineurin

inhibits transcription of Il-2 > inhibit Tcell activation and prolif

31
Q

therapeutic action prednisolone

A

inhibit proinflam like NF-kB

activate anti-inflam genes via histone acetlyation

reduce T-cell prolif and increase Tcell apop

reduce Tcell activation, b-cell pro-lif

32
Q

mechanism+metabolism azathioprine

methotrexate

cyclophosphamide

A

metabolized to 6mercaptopurine>TIMP in liver

TIMP decreases synthesis of DNA precursors

block CD28 costim of Tcells

33
Q

pharmacokinetics Azathioprine

A

oral

short half life (3-5 hours)

metabolized to TIMP in liver

34
Q

mechanism of aaction sirolimus

A

binds FKBP12 > mdoulates activity of mTOR

inhibits IL-2 induced cell progression from G1 to S phase

35
Q

drug interactions azathioprine

A

allopurinol > decrease 6 mercaptopurine metabolism,

must reduce azathioprine dose by 75% if used together

36
Q

antiproliferative antimetabolitte

A

mycopehnolate mofetil

37
Q

side effects azathioprine

A

bonemarrow supression, leucopenia, thrombocytopenia

hypersensitivity reactions

opportunistic infection

alopecia

small risk of lymphomas

38
Q

side effects mycophenolate mofetil

A

leucopenai, thrombocytopenia, anemia
