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

Q

Streptococcus pyogenes - two toxins and MOA

A
  1. Pyrogenic exotoxin - acts as superantigen, inducing shock and fever, assocaited with scarlet fever and streptococcal TSS
  2. Streptolysin O and S - damages erythrocyte membranes, causing beta-hemolysis

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

25
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.
Digoxin
26
What type of drug increases refractory period of AV node and slows rate of discharge of sinus or ectopic peacemakers?
Esmolol - Beta clocker (calss two antiarrhythmics)
27
Where do thiazide diuretics work?
at distal tubule, increasing Cl and Na reabsorption
28
Best drug for decreasing TG
fibrates
29
best drug for decreasing LDL
statins
30
drug that decreases LDL, but may increase TG
resins (bile acid sequesteration blockers)
31
Highest increase in HDL
niacin
32
DoC for a person who develops sustained tonic-clonic seizures without gain of consciousness between episodes.
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
MOA of amphotericin toxicities
binds slightly to cholesterol in cell membranes
34
The most potent diuretic, used to quickly tx acute decompensated HF. Where does it act?
Loops. Act on the thick ascending loop Na/K/2Cl. (furosemide)
