|
Km
|
reflects the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate -- the lower the Km, the higher the affinity
|
|
Vmax
|
directly proportional to the enzyme concentration
|
|
Competitive vs. Noncompetitive Inhibitors -- Resemble Substrate
|
Competitive = Yes; Noncompetitive = No
|
|
Competitive vs. Noncompetitive Inhibitors -- Overcome by increase [S]
|
Competitive = Yes; Noncompetitive = No
|
|
Competitive vs. Noncompetitive Inhibitors -- Bind Active Site
|
Competitive = Yes; Noncompetitive = No
|
|
Competitive vs. Noncompetitive Inhibitors -- Effect on Vmax
|
Competitive = Unchanged; Noncompetitive = decrease
|
|
Competitive vs. Noncompetitive Inhibitors -- Effect on Km
|
Competitive = Increased; Noncompetitive = Unchanged
|
|
Volume of Distrution (Vd) Def
|
Relates the amount of drug in the the body to the plasma concentration, Vd of plasma protein-bound drugs can be altered by liver and kidney disease
|
|
Vd equation
|
(amount of drug in the body)/(plasma drug concentration)
|
|
Drugs with low Vd distribute in
|
plasma
|
|
Drugs with medium Vd distribute in
|
extracellular space
|
|
Drugs with high Vd distribute in
|
tissues
|
|
Clearance (CL) Def
|
relates the rate of elimination to the plasma concentration
|
|
Clearance (CL) equation
|
(rate of elimination of drug)/(plasma drug concentration) = Vd x Ke
|
|
Half-life (t 1/2) Def
|
The time required to change the amount of drug in the body by 1/2 during elimination
|
|
Loading Dose equation
|
Cp x Vd/F
|
|
Maintenance Dose equation
|
Cp x CL/F
|
|
Zero-order Elimination
|
Rate of elimination is constant regardless of C
|
|
First-order Elimination
|
Rate of elimination is proportional to the drug concentration. Cp decrease exponentially with time
|
|
Phase I metabolism
|
reduction, oxidation, hyrdolysis --> yields slightly polar, water-soluble metabolites (often still active) --> cytochrome P450
|
|
Phase II metabolism
|
acetylation, glucuronidation, sulfation --> yields very polar, inactive metabolites (renally excreted)
|
|
Competitive antagonist effects of Agonist Dose (log scale) vs % of maximum effect
|
shifts curve to the right, decreasing potency, and increase EC50
|
|
Noncompetitive antagonist effects of Agonist Dose (log scale) vs % of maximum effect
|
shifts curve downward, decreasing efficacy
|
|
System with Spare Receptors -- What is effect on relationship btw EC50 and Kd?
|
EC50 < Kd, indicating that to achieve 50% of maximum effect, <50% of the receptors must be activated
|
|
Partial agonist effect on efficacy and potency
|
acts on the same receptor system as the full agonist but has a lower maximal efficacy no matter the dose and potency is an independent factor
|
|
Therapeutic Index Equation
|
TD50/ED50 = median toxic dose/median effective dose
|
