Define Pharmacodynamics
it is the study of the physiological effects of drugs on the body, the MOA, and the relationship between drug concentration and effect
Define Pharmacokinetics
branch of pharmacology dedicated to the determiniation of the fate of substances administered externally to a living organism
Methods of Drug Administration
Oral, Sublingual, Rectal, Topical (Skin and eye), Inhalation (anesthesia, and anti-ashmatics), Injections (IV, IM, SC, IT), Implants (BC)
Define
ADME
Absorption
Distribution
Metabolilsm
Excretion
Orally taken drugs must cross the ___________ to reach the blood supply
gut wall
Most orally (active, deactive) drugs pass through the cells ________________ wall
active, lining the gut
Thus in the gut, the drugs are required to cross ____ fatty membranes
two
Orally active drugs usually obey _________ rule.
Lipinski's
____________ drugs can be administered via injection
Polar
Define Lipinski's Rule of Five
MW < 500
No More than 5 HBD groups
No more than 10 HBA groups
log P < +5
Drug Absorption exception is that small _______ molecules less than ______mw, can cross the gut wall through small pores between cells
polar, 200
Drug Absorption exception;
Name the three transport protiens that can carry polar molecules across
dugs (lisinpril), amino acids, nucleic acid bases
Drug Absorption Exception:
Define Pinocytosis
a process allowing the passage of large polar drugs into a cell without actually crossing the cell membrane
Distribution
Once across the gut wall, drugs enter the blood stream rapidly as their are no cell membranes to cross , only pores in the walls of the vessels
-Drugs absorbed orally, are first taken in to the liver where drug modification through metabolism occurs
-A certain portion is absorbed while the other is deactivated
-drug is distributed within 1 minute evenly after absorption
Drug Metabolism
Foreign chemicals are modified by enzymes in the liver
Metabolic reactions also occur in the ________, ________, and ___________.
blood, gut wall, other organs
____________are formed from drug metabolism.
drug metabolites
Drug Metabolites are usualy less active, except for ________.
prodrugs
Define First Pass Effect
the phenomenom of a drug metabolism whereas a drug enters the system through the digestive system, taken into the hepatic portal system and is greatly reduced before it reaches systemic circulation
Name the 4 potential biotransformations:
Active Drug to Inactive Metabolite
Active drug to Active Metabolite
Inactive Drug to Active Metabolite (Prodrug)
Active Drug to Toxin (biotoxification)
Two pathways of metabolism:
Phase I, and Phase II
Phase I reaction
Includes Oxidative, Reductive, and Hydrolytic reactions
Phase II
conjugation method
In a Phase I reaction, a polar drug is introduced or unmasked in order to make the drug more ___________ so that it is alle to be ___________
water-soluble, excreted
The majority of Phase I metabolites are generated through the __________ enzyme system known as the Cytochrome _________
hydroxylating, P450
Phase II reactions involve _________ attachement of small polar molecules to form _______________ compounds
covalent, water soluble
name 3 examples of endogenous molecules used in Phase II reactions
glucoronic acid, gycine, sulfate
What r the CYTP450 enzymes?
heme protiens, heme portion is an iron containing porphyrin called protoporphyrin IX, and the protien portion is called an apoprotien
Where is the CYP450 found?
high concentrations in the liver, lungs, kidney, intestines, skin, placenta, adrenal cortex.....main one is liver for metabolic action
Why is it called CYP450
due to the iron being reduced and binding with carbon monoxide to form a complex that is visible through spectroscopy at 450nm.
CYP450 is located in the __________________ reticulum of the liver and other cells
endoplasmic
Metabolic Transformations

Oxidative Processes:
Common oxidative processes include?
the addition of oxygen to various functional groups
Changing the hybridization of groups from sp3 to sp2, etc...by removal of hydrogen
Common Oxidative metabolisms include
Aromatic and aliphatic Hydroxylations, Epoxidation of alkenes, Oxidation of Alcohols to Aldehydes, and sulfide to sulfoxides to sulfones, Oxidation of imines to imine oxides, Dealkylation of heteroatoms
Aromatic Hydroxilation:
Many drugs posses aromatic rings were this is a major route of drug metabolism. Hydroxylation occurs on these rings that are _____________, those that have electron donating groups, such as _______, ______, ________, ________.
electron rich
OH, OCH3, NH2. Alkyl Groups
The presence of electron _______________ groups usually inhibits hydroxylation of that ring. Name the examples of said groups.
withdrawing, i.e (F, Cl, Br, I) nitro, nitriles, carbonyls, sulfoxides, and sulfones
Aromatic Hydroxylation
-
Aromatic Hydroxylation most often occurs at the ____________ position to the substituent.
para
Ortho substituents are also electron rich, however _________________ usually inhibits hydroxylation at these points
steric crowding
if more than one substituent is attached to the ring, then hydroxylation occurs at the ______________________
para position to the most electron donating substituent
What are MFO's and what do they do?
mixed function oxidases, they are responsible for metabolizing the aromatic ring by epoxidation of the electron rich pi bond, resulting in an arene oxide intermediate.
For a ring to be aromatic it must __________, ___________, __________.
be flat, have a p-orbital in each atom of the ring, and the pi electrons should equal 2, 6, or 10
Aromatic Hydroxylation example:
-
Epoxides can be acted upon by what enzyme to open the arene oxide with water? What is the product?
Epoxide hydrolase

trans-dihydrodiols
Example of formation of trans-dihydrodiols is:
-
Epoxides are electrophiles that can react with other nucleophiles than water, such as _____________, and _____________, and _______________. Such a reaction creates a covalently bound cellular macromolecule which can lead to mutations.
DNA, RNA, and proteins
Example of Arene Oxide binding with DNA
-
If an arene oxide is formed on the terminal ring of a polycyclic structure and undergoes hydrolysis to a dihydrodiol, this will further undergo epoxidation to form a diol epoxide
-
Oxidation of aliphatic carbons adjacent to the functional group results in an alcohol. (the carbon undergoing oxidation must have at least one hydrogen)
-
The carbon adjacent to the functional group is called the __________ carbon
alpha
The result of alpha carbon oxidation through MFO is that an ....
