M2M Unit 2 Flashcards
CYP3A
Substrates: Cyclosporine mechanism: genetically less important than other drug metabolism genes b/c activity continuous and unimodal Inhibitors: Ketoconazole, grapefruit juice inducers: Rifampin
CYP2D6
Substrates: Tricyclic antidepressants and codeine (activates codeine->morphine) Inhibitors: Quinidine, Fluoxetine, Paroxetine Whites poor metabolizers
CYP2C9
Substrates: Warfarin use VKORC1 as marker to approx. target dose underdose-> clot; overdose-> bleed 20% Whites need lower dose–> poor metabolizers
NAT
Drugs: Isoniazid for TB mechanism: rate of acetylation determined by genetic polymorphism comments: Important in Phase II pathway -Modifies risk of cancers though differences in acetylation of carcinogens
TMPT
Drugs: 6-mercaptopurine, 6-thioguanine 5% of kids with ALL (leukemia) poor metabolizers (absent activity)–> will KILL child (immunosuppression) if don’t test for it (functional assay) Solution: give lower dose
G6PD
Substrates: Sulfonamide antibiotics, dapsone Mechanism: X-linked enzyme -Deficient individuals susceptible to hemolytic anemia after sulfa or dapsone drug exposures
VKORC1
Drug: Warfarin Mechanism: reduces vit. K; single nucleotide polymorphism –Warfarin is a ‘blood thinner” one of the most commonly prescribed meds given to >20,000,000 pts. in the US/year

25yo with foot drop, loss of sensation in legs for days to months.
Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies -deletion of the gene encoding peripheral myelin protein-22 (AD)
