(results in circulatory collapse and cyanosis)
19
Chemicals in cigarette smoke, charbroiled food and cruciferous vegetables all induce CYP___.
1A2
20
Chronic alcohol induces expression of CYP___
2E1
21
Substrate specificity for OAT?
Broad range of low MW substrates
22
Substrate specificity for OATP?
Broad range of substrates; Amphipathic Anions, MW > 350 Da
23
Most drug interactions mediated by OCT/MATE are caused by what drug?
- How? (what organ)
Cimetidine
- Prevents renal elimination of other OCT-dependent drugs
24
What 2 channels does cyclosporin inhibit?
OATP and P-gp/MDR-1
25
What 2 channels transport statins?
- OATP (influx)
- BCRP (efflux)
26
What drug is given w/cisplatin to avoid nephrotoxicity?
Cimetidine.
27
Substrate specificity for P-gp/MDR-1?
- Broad substrate specificity, typically bulky hydrophobic structures with neutral/positive charge
28
Would tumor cells upregulate or downregulate p-gp/MDR-1? Why?
Tumor cells often upregulate expression of P-gp/MDR1 to promote efflux of anti-cancer drugs
29
Of the transporters mentioned, which one is not present at the apical gut lumen?
OAT
30
Name the 3 most common CYP polymorphic genes.
CYP2D6, 2C9 and 2C19
31
Which of the CYP proteins is linked to warfarin inactivation of the active metabolite, S-warfarin?
CYP2C9
32
How does VCORC1 relate to warfarin?
What does VCORC1 do
What would happen with a mutation in VCORC1?
- Warfarin nlly inhibits VCORC1
- VCORC1 leads to formation of active clotting factor
- VCORC1 mutation = warfarin resistance = low anticoagulation (need higher dose)
33
What are the 3 non-pharmacological means of antagonizing drug effects?
1. Chemical antagonism (e.g. chelation)
2. Physiologic antagonism (use of opposing pw's)
3. Biologic antagonism (1 drug effects metab/PK of another)
34
How is 95% of acetaminophen metabolized?
What about the other 5%?
Why is high dose dangerous?
* Treatment with what drug will elevate glutathione levels and shunt back to normal pw?
- 95% is conjugated and eliminated
- 5% converted to NAPQI, which can be conjugated
- High dose shunts pw to NAPQI -> hepatotoxicity
- N-acetyl cysteine
35
Explain (in small amount of detail) the 5 parts of pre-clinical trials.
1) What 2 doses must be determined?
1. Safety pharmacology (no effect dose + LD50)
2. Toxicology
3. PK testing (ADME)
4. Drug interactions (CYP450, xporters)
5. Chemical/pharmacological devo (stable? reproducible?)
36
When does the FDA perform a review in the making of a new drug?
- Reviews investigational new drug application (INDA)
- Meets b/w phase II and III of clinical trials (to be sure it's safe for larger pop.)
- Reviews new drug application (NDA)
37
What are the 3 things an IND application must have?
1. Animal pharm and toxicology data
2. Manufacturing info
3. Clinical protocols/investigator info
- Shows drug is reasonably safe and allows drug to be shipped across state lines
38
1. Purposes of phase I trial?
2. Trial design?
1. Is it safe/tolerable; PK
2. Open label w/escalating dose
39
1. Purposes of phase II trial?
2. Trial design?
1. Does it work in actual pts? Dosing; Efficacy; safety
2. Single/double-blind

2. Double-blind
41
What 4 things must be labeled on drug packaging?
1. Dosage
2. Adverse reactions
3. Contraindications
4. Special warnings/precautions
42
Define the 3 classes of drug recall.
Class I: Reasonable probability that use of drug will cause serious adverse health consequences or death (e.g. microbial contamination)
Class II: Use of drug will cause temporary adverse health consequences, although probability of serious health consequences is remote
Class III: Use of drug is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences (e.g. quantity packaging error)
43
What can happen when loperamide is given concurrently w/cyclosporin?
P-gp/MDR-1 receptors can be inhibited by cyclosporin, allowing loperamide to cross BBB can cause respiratory depression.
