Q

Anthrax exotoxin - bug and MOA (2)

A

Bacillus anthracis

  • Edema factor (converts ATP to cAMP) - causes edema and phagocyte dysfunction
  • Lethal factor - Zn-depenent protase - cuases apoptosis and mutisystem physiologic disruption

Q

Bordetella pertussis - two toxins and MOA of each

A
  1. PErtussis toxin - disnhibits AC through Gi ADP-ribosylation, inc cAMP - causes edema adn phagocytic dysfunction
  2. AC-toxin - fxns as AC, increasing cAMP levels - causes edema and phagocytic dysfunction

Q

Clostridium difficile - two toxins and MOA

A
  1. Toxin A - recrutis, activates neutrophils leading to cytokine release resulting in mucosal inflammation, fluid loss, diarrhea
  2. Toxin B - Induces actin depolymerization, leading to mucosal cell death, bowel wall necrosis and psudomembrane formation

22
Q

Class three antiarrhythmics (K-blockers)

A

sotalol, dofetilide, amiodarone

23
Q

Class four antiarrhythmis (L-type Ca-CB)

A

verapamil, diltizem

24
Q

drug that interacts with A1 receptor on cardiac cells, activating K-channels and increasing potassium conductance, causing membrane potential to remain negative for a longer period - resulting in slowing of sinus rate and increased AV nodal conduction delay

A

adenosine

25
Q

Drug that inhibits Na/K/ATPase pump on myocardial cells, resutling in increased intracellular Na, leading to rise in intracellular calcium facilitate dby Na-Ca exchanger.

A

Digoxin

26
Q

What type of drug increases refractory period of AV node and slows rate of discharge of sinus or ectopic peacemakers?

A

Esmolol - Beta clocker (calss two antiarrhythmics)

27
Q

Where do thiazide diuretics work?

A

at distal tubule, increasing Cl and Na reabsorption

28
Q

Best drug for decreasing TG

A

fibrates

29
Q

best drug for decreasing LDL

A

statins

30
Q

drug that decreases LDL, but may increase TG

A

resins (bile acid sequesteration blockers)

31
Q

Highest increase in HDL

A

niacin

32
Q

DoC for a person who develops sustained tonic-clonic seizures without gain of consciousness between episodes.

A

This is status epilepticus - give IV benzo to increase frequency of GABA-A receptor activation to increase Chloride channel opening to increase post-synaptic Cl influx.

33
Q

MOA of amphotericin toxicities

A

binds slightly to cholesterol in cell membranes

34
Q

The most potent diuretic, used to quickly tx acute decompensated HF. Where does it act?

A

Loops. Act on the thick ascending loop Na/K/2Cl. (furosemide)
