Q

biochemical interactions with receptors

Ligand gated ion channels

A

1.1 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors
na channels open letting Na enter. Ap is formed. Ca2+ flows out and repolarization occurs

where: in neuromuscular junction, anatomic ganglia and CNS
Neuromuscular junction 2 alpha, beta, o, e
autonomic ganglia 2 alpha and 3 beta
anatgonist is curare

1.2 Gaba A receptor- gated Chloride Ion Channel
stimulationinhibits muscles due to Cl entering the cell causing hyperpolarization

Q

Therapeutic index

A

is the gap between LD50 and ED50
the higher the gap the more safe the drug is
Remiferentanyl needs *33000 times the initial dose to reach lethal dose

Digoxin only *2
Therapeutic window is the diff between LD50 and TD50 meaning the drug is safe to use within that range

Q

Agonists and Antagonists

A

receptor is either active or inactive. Ligand may acto on either state
Ligands can either be
Full agonist: favours active state, max response with max affinity

Full antagonist: high affinity but will not activate receptor. no response

Partial agonist: sub max response and only partial activation of the receptor. prevents downregulation of receptors.
Heroin downregulates endorphin receptors. Buprenorphine will stimulate the receptors again but even at max dose they wont achieve the same efficacy anymore.

Q

Drug Tolerance

A

2 types of tolerance emerge after prolonged use of drugs.

  1. Pharmacokinetic tolerance: induction of liver enzymes. they get more effective. Phenobarbital to maintain blood plasma.
  2. pharmacodynamic tolerance (desentization)
    opoids and Heroin, inhibits the endorphin receptors.
    Downregulation of receptors occurs

3.sequestration, drug being constantly bound to G protein it will break down. loss of adrenaline recptors.G protein activation prevented by beta Arestin.

Q

Drug Toxicity

A

drug toxicity can be ucaused by genetic predisposition and non selective action, or inappropriate use of drugs
all drugs have an intended (primary) and a secondary (unintended) effects. no drug is entirely specific side effects can be neutral or beneficial. most of the time undesirable.

Q
  1. AGONISTS
A

full agonists
- bind the receptor at an active state

Partial agonists
-will try to bind as many active receptors but fail to reach the same effect.
Heptyl and Octyl derivatives

they both compete with each other and the full agonist has reduced efficiency.

Inverse Agonist
- histamine receptors can existeither active or inactive.
histmaine agonist will stimulate active site
antihistamines work as an inverse agonist and pushes the balance of receptors towards an inactive state.

Q

Antagonists

A

2.1 Non receptor Antagonists
physiological antagonist: histamine inducing anaphylactic shock

chemical anatgonist: counteract agonist. Heparin is an anticoagulant. Protamin is a chemical antagonistas it is strongly positive.

2.2 Receptor Anatagonists

orthosteric binding (same site as agonist)

  • reversible (competitive antagonism) Metatomidine and xylazine are reversed by atapazimol

-irreversible( non competitive active site antagonist)
efficacy is largely decrease and small decrease in potency. Ketamine and NMDA receptors.

-Allosteric binding, binds to a different site.

17
Q

Drug toxicity classification

A

either on target or off target if receptor based
On target: Primary appropriate effect on the appropriate receptor tisse
Off target: leads to side effects and harmful effect undesired

On target adverse effect:
at intended tissue and receptor but: inappropriate concentration with suboptimal pharmakinetics. happens deliberate or accidental, altered pharmacokinetics, liver and kidney disease
changes in pharmacodynamics:
-drug receptor changes, number, state etc.

intended recptor but different tissue.
-antihistamine diphenhydramine HCl on the H1 receptor. Antagonist used to decrease unwanted symptoms of the histamine release in allergic reactions.. crosses BBB?

Off target:
on the unintended receptor.
Thalidomide - enantiomeric pairs, S-enantiomer was a teratogen (birth deformaties) abnormal development of peripheral vessels. R- enantiomer was a sedative
Testing on pregnant animals before human testing

on the unintended receptor and unintended tissue.
use of the beta blockers
B1 receptor antagonists can also acto on beta 2 receptors - increased contractility affecting SM cells

17
Q

Harmful Immune and Idiosyncratic Response and
classification of immune mechanism

A

Drugs are Xenobiotics that the immune system can recognize as foreign material.

immune system has either a hypersensitivity response or autoimmune reaction.

-hypersensitivity type 1-4
type 1 is immediate anaphylactic reactions
type 2 is in response to penicillin or quinidine
type 3 is in response to Cefaclor
type 4 is in response to dermatitis, latex allergy

Idiosyncratic response
-anaphylaxis
-anaphylactoid= pseudo- allergic reaction
Autoimmunity:

17
Q

Formation of toxic metabolites

A

lipid peroxidation

  • lipid peroxidation initiated by ROS, chain reaction, changes membrane permeability. Defense against Vitamin E, Selenium, GSH excretion.

-generation of ROS molecular oxygen is reduced to superoxide anion. Cytotoxic effect is direct, leads to LPO?

-Modification of Sulfhydryl groups, frees sulfhydryl groups maintain cytoplasmic Ca2+ conc. absence leads to lethal hyperglycemia. inactivationof haem enzymes and increased cell permeability.

-Glutathione deficiency, GSH protects cells from oxidative stress. depletion of GSH leads to drug toxicity, decreased cellular protection. ROS convert GSH to GSSG. replenish with NADPH dependant GSSG reductase.

-Paracetamol, never for Cats. it produces covalent protein derivatives which are highly toxic for liver. antidote is N-acetyl cysteine

18
Mechanism and development of drug Toxicity
Drug or Metabolites can induce -receptor specific effects -protein drug adducts: fibrosis, necrosis, apoptosis and a protective response. -reaction with small molecules ( leading to cancer or mutation) -react with DNA (either repairs DNA or leads to Cancer mutation etc.)
19
Extracorporeal INteractions
Physical incompatibility - when two drugs are mixed in syringe or infusion - change in consistency, shape, viscosity, etc. of the original dose form. - Mixing/ Dilution of infusions and injections, Ivermectin and Isopropyl - change in pH (tetracyclines, alkaline solutions) -mixing of lipophilic and hydrophilic ointments (suppository bases) -ionisation (pentobarbital and xylazine, opoids or ketamine) - eutetics ( methol+camphor+ aspirin vs. Antypyrin+ Sulphur) - Adsorption (glass over plastic, sticking to surface) Chemical incompatibility multiple types of reactions: oxidation, reduction, hydroxylation, double replacement. insoluble complex formation(ca2+ and oxytetracyvline) Physicochemical incompatibility -oxytetracycline+ ca gluconate = dark green colour and forms precipitate -ivermectin + physiological saline =cloudy perticipate -pentobarbital+ xylazine = solid perticipate -Menthol+ Camphor: Eutectic formation
19
Drug Interactions and types
can be interactions between drugs and feed, toxins and endogen metabolites types: Extracorporeal - reactions occurring outside the body. can be physical, chemical or physicochemical incompatibilities. Intracorporeal- reaction occur within the body. can be positive drugs that amplify each other. Additive/ potentiation: CNS inhibitors Synergism: Antibacterial agent or negative: Therapeutic incompatibility Pharmacodynamic interactions Pharmacokinetic interaction -can occur at any point in the ADME process
20
Intracorporeal interactions
Receptorial 1. Competitive (Direct) two drugs acting on the same receptor site. physical blocking of a receptor Agonist vs Antagonist ( fentanyl vs Naloxon) Agonist vs Partial Agonist (Fentayl vs Butorphanol) Medeto/Dexmedetomidine vs. Atipamezole Pilocarpine vs Atropine 2. Non-Competetive (non-direct). Allosteric: Same organ/tissue and same receptor. same organ different receptor: -aminoglycoside+non depolarising muscle relaxant -H1 antihistamines+ hypnosedatives -combination of antihypertensive or antirhythmics physiological -acts on different tissue -adrenergic vs cholinergic drugs -adrogens vs oestrogens Non-receptorial - chelating agents EDTA -Absorbents: activated carbon -Acid neutralisers (Al (OH)3 )
21
Pharmacokinetics Interactions

22
CYP450 enzyme
NADH/NADPH NADPH cytochrome P450 reductase O2 (mostly oxidative reaction) CYP1 CYP2 CYP3
23
CYP mediated interactions
Decreased efficacy increase duration of action Chicken and turkeys: Ionophore coccidiostats (monensin, narasin, salinomycin) + Tiamulin/ Valnemulin is highly TOXIC Increased level = cimetidine+Lidocaine Monepantel induces CYP1A, 2B, 2C, 2E, 3A`
24
Elimination
urine ph influences the rate of excretion of drugs Procaine, Antihistamines, Caffeine, Pethidine, penicillins remain longer in the urinary tract. therefore good for UTI
25
Species, Subspecies and Bloodlines
Receptorial -xylazine (bo. are particulary sensitive) -morphine( fe. sensitive) absorption -ampicillin (&cefaclor) absorption 60% ca. 30%bo. -Atropine in horses, cattles and humans are very sensitive. Distribution -ivermectin: collies, shelties, bobtails, crosses BBB leading to paralysis Barbiturates: Greyhounds are particularly sensitive (low body fat) Metabolism -Salycilates, Phenols: cats are sensitive Sulphonamides: Dogs sensitive Procaine: Pigs Atropine: White rabbits and goats high levels of atropine esterase Gut Flora -Penicillin: Rabbit and hamsters are sensitive due
26
Health status, Condition
Fever: reduce stomach emptying negative absorption effect Diarrhea: increased gut motility (flushed out quickly) Illnss: makes animals unwilling to eat organ phosphates: liver renal failure Fat levels:increased fat decreases sensitivity needing a higher dose
27
Dosage
dose determines level of effect like xylazine and atropine
28
Route of application

29
Feeding
decreases BV phytoestrogens increase activity of metabolising enzymes
30
Gender and sex
testosterone increases metabolic activity which decreases drug utilisation LD50 values can be higher in males. Pregnant females cannot give anti-progesterone drug. (induce uterine contractions)
31
Age
Young Old: change in gastric secretion, pH, blood flow motility. body compositions, protein binding changes metabolism decreases and clearance becomes more reliant on environmental factors. excretion suffers decreased renal clearance and increased half life .
32
Tolerance
subjects reaction to drug decreases resistance can build up (opioids) Tachyphylaxis: rapid development of drug tolerance Drug immunity Body becomes insensitive drug
