Which vasculitis is associated w/ HBV?
Polyarteritis Nodosa
vasculitis - string of pearls
Polyarteritis nodosa
which small vessel vasculitis have granulomas?
Granulomatosis with polyangiits (wegner)
Churg Strauss
Which small vessel vasculitis show lesions of different stages of healing
Wegners
which small vessel vasculitis is assocated with eosinophilia
Churg Strauss
differences between wegners and microscopic polyangitis
wegers: granulomas, different stages of healing, involving oral mucosa, c-ANCA (P3-ANCA)
microscopic: no granulomas, no nasopharyngeal, same stages, p-ANCA (MPO-ANCA)
which vasculitis is associated with migratory pulmonary infiltrate
Churg Strauss
Cyclosporin action
binds to cyclophilin to calcineurin (no dephosphorylation of NFAT) ability to transcribe IL-2
Tacrolimus action
blocks FK506 to inhibit calcineurin (no dephosphorylation of NFAT) to prevent IL-2 trascription
Cycolosporin vs. Tacrolimus ADRs
both nephrotoxic
Cyco: HTN, hyperlipid, hirsutism, gingival hyperplasia
tacrolimus: diabetes (no hirsutism or gingival)
Sirolimus
also rapamycin
binds to FKBP to inhibit mTOR to decrease T and B cell response to IL2
Synergisitc of cyclosporin
ADRs Sirolimus
pancytopenia, insulin resistance, NO nephrotoxicity
Daclizumab
IL2 Rect Ab
Basilizimab
IL2 Rec Ab
Azathioprine
Block PRPP amidotransferase to decrease purine NTs
6-mercaptopurine
blocks PRPP amidotransferase to decrease NTs
Mycophenolate
inhibits IMP dehydrogenase to decrease PUrine NT synthesis
Mycophenolate ADRs
GI upset, pancytopenia, HTN, hyperglycemia, CMV infection
Leflunomide
inhibits dihydroorate dehydrogenase to decrease pyrimidine NTs
Alemtuzumab
Anti CD52 (mature lymphocytes) for CLL
Bevacizumab
Anti VEGF
Use colorectal, RCC, WMD
Cetuximab
anti EGFR – colorectal CA
Rituximab
anti CD20 - B cell non-hodgkins, CLL, RA, ITP
Adalimumab
anti TNF alpha - IBD, RA, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriasis (increased susceptibility to TB)
