6
Q

What is ischemic heart disease

A

Partial occlusion of coronary artery

7
Q

Classic angina (angina of effort, stable angina)

A

Occlusion of coronary arteries resulting from the formation of atherosclerotic plaque

  • most common
  • symptoms occur during exertion or stress
8
Q

Variant angina

A

Episodes of vasoconstriction of coronary arteries

Likely genetic
Symptoms at rest
Much less common than classics angina

9
Q

Angina

A

Imbalance between oxygen demand of the heart and oxygen supply via the coronary arteries

At rest oxygen demand=supply of oxygen through partially blocked artery
No symptoms

During exercise/stress
Oxygen demand> supply through partially blocked coronary artery
CHEST PAIN

10
Q

How reduce oxygen demand

A

Decrease cardiac work load

11
Q

How increase oxygen suppl

A

Increase blood flow through coronary arteries

12
Q

What are approaches to increase coronary blood flow

A

Coronary artery bypass grafting

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA)

Atherectomy-tip of catheter shears off the plaque
-reoclusion

Stent-expandable tube used as scaffolding to keep vessel open
-drug elating stents (antiproliferative drugs)

Vasodilator

13
Q

Vasodilator to increase coronary blood flow

A

Useful in vasospastic (prinzmetal) angina

Relieves coronary spasm, restores blood flow to ischemic area, vasodilator

*spasm of proximal right coronary artery and its treatment with a vasodilator

14
Q

When are vasodilator not useful in treating angina

A

Atherosclerotic (classic ) angina

-coronary steal phenomenon-redistribution of blood to non ischemic areas-associated with the dilation of small arterioles (example-potent arteriolar vasodilator, such as DIPYRIDAMOLE)

15
Q

How reduce myocardial oxygen demand

A

HR, contractility, preload, afterload

Physic coronary flow

  • isovolumetric contraction
  • ejection
  • diastole
16
Q

What drugs are used in chronic ischemic heart disease

A

Nitrates
Calcium channel blockers
Beta blockers
Ranolazine

17
Q

How is vasculature relaxed

A

Release of ENDOTHELIUM derived relaxing factor (EDRF) by Ach
Endothelium is necessary

Endogenous NOS makes NO, a vasorelaxing agent …NO and citrulline activate GC to make cGMP

18
Q

How are nitrates, NO donors

A

Organiz nitrates cause metabolic activation of NO (do do endothelial cells)
Outside cell then NO into cell

NO activates GC to turn GTP to cGMP In cell

GTP activates protein kinase G->myosin LC dephosphorylation->smooth muscle renalxation

PKG also opens K channels to allow K out and get hyperpolarization and reduced calcium entry

19
Q

What are the nitrovasodilators

A

Nitroglycerin

Isosorbide

Isosorbide mononitrate

20
Q

Pharmacokinetics of nitrovasodilators

A

Significant first pass metabolism-high nitrate reductase activity in the liver
-nitrate reductase activity in saturable

Bioavailability with oral route is low

Other routes that avoid first pass metabolism are used

Partially denigrated metabolites may still have activity and longer half lives

Isosorbide mononitrate is a poor substrate of nitrate reductase
-characterized by higher bioavailability

21
Q

MOA nitrates

A

Unknown enzymatic reaction releases NO (or other active metabolite)
-the role of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2)

Thiopental compounds are needed to release NO from nitrates

Vascular smooth muscle-NO dilate veins and (at much higher concentrations) large arteries

Sensitivity of vasculature to nitrate-induced vasodilationL
Veins>large arteries>small arteries and arterioles
-no “coronary steal” phenomenon
-inhibit platelet aggregation

22
Q

How do nitrates decrease myocardial oxygen demand

A

Relaxation of smooth msucle

  • dilation of veins major effect)
  • increased venous capacitance
  • reduced ventricular preload

Dilation of arteries-higher concentrations off nitrates are needed, as compared to venous dilation

  • may reduce afterload
  • may dilate large pericardial coronary arteries
  • there is no substantial increase inc ordinary blood flow into ischemic area in atherosclerotic angina
23
Q

24
Q

26
Q

27
Q

A

LDL oxidation

Superoxide radical

Smooth muscle cell proliferation

Platelet aggregation

Monocyte adhesion

28
Q

Development of tolerance to nitrates

A

Depletion of thiol compounds

Increased generation of superoxide radicals

Reflex activation of sympathetic nervous system (tachycardia, decreased coronary blood supply)

Retention fo salt and water

-increased generation of superoxide radical depletes tissues of NO

29
Q

  • nicardipine (short acting t1/2 2-4 hours)

Cardioactive

  • diltiazem
  • verapamil
37
Q

How do ca channel blockers work

Q

How do calcium channel blockers decrease myocardial O2 demand (atherosclerotic angina)

A

54
Q

MOA ranolazine

A

Ischemic myocardium is often partially depolarized

Na channel inc ardiomyocytes is voltage gated

Late Na current is enhanced in ischemic myocardium and brings about Ca overload and depolarizer abnormalities

RANOLAXINE normalizes depolarization of cardiac myocytes and reduces mechanical dysfunction

Q

Dietary management of hyperlipidemia: when do

A

1at! Unless patient has evident coronary or peripheral vascular disease; patients with familial hypercholesterolemias always require drug therapy in addition to diet

67
Q

How do dietary management

A

Total fat, cruise, and fructose increase vldl; alcohol can cause significant hypertriglyceridemia by increasing hepatic secretion of vldl; synthesis and secretion of vldl are increased by excess calories; during weight loss, LDL and VLDL levels may be much lower than can be maintained during neutral caloric balance (concluding that dietary changes suffice for lipid management can only be made after weight has stabilized for 1 month)

Generally dietary recommendations : limit total calories from fat 20-25% of daily intake, saturated fats to less than 8% of daily intake, cholesterol to less than 200 mg.day; reductions in serum cholesterol range from 10-20% adhering to these recommendations

68

71
Q

MOA statins

A

Structural analogs of HMG-CoA (initial precursor of cholesterol) and inhibit MHG-CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis; inhibiting de node cholesterol synthesis depletes the intracellular supply of cholesterol, which causes the cell to increase the number of specific cell surface LDL receptors that can bind and internalize circulating LDLs; increased expression of surface LDL receptors reduced circulating LDL levels; can reduce LDL levels 20-55%

72

79
Q

What does niacin do

A

Inhibits the lipolysis of TG in adipose tissue (the primary producer of circulating FFA)

By reducing circulating FFA, the liver produces less VLDL and LDL levels decreased

Catabolic rate for HDL is decreased

Fibrinogen levels are reduced ant tissue plasminogen activator levels are increased

82

85
Q

Liver niacin

The decrease in FFA from adipose causes decrease in TG synthesis which decreases VLDL/LDL plasma -> decreases cholesterol delivery to peripheral cells

86
Q

89
Q

MOA fabric acid derivatives (fibrates)

Major effect is increased oxidation of FA in liver and striated muscle

Increased lipolysis of TG via lipoprotein lipase while intracellular lipolysis in adipose tissue is decreased

VLDL levels decrease, LAL modestly decrease in most patients (LDL levels can increase as TG are reduced), HDL increase moderately

90

98
Q

Name bile acid sequesterants (resins)

A

99
Q

Pharmacokinetics bile acid sequestrants

A

Large polymeric cationic exchange resins that are insoluble in water; neighbor absorbed nor metabolically altered by the intestine; totally excreted int he feces

100
Q

MOA bile acid sequestrants

A

Positively changed compounds bind to negatively charged bile acids (metabolites of cholesterol) and increase bile acid excretion up to tenfold; increased excretion of bile acids enhance the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids int he liver via 7a-hydrocylation (normally controlled by negative feedback via bile acids) the decline in hepatic cholesterol stimulates an increase in hepatic LDL receptor, which enhances LDL clearance and lowers levels; however this effect is partially offset by enhanced cholesterol synthesis caused by upregulation of HMG-CoA reductase (therefore, combined use of statin substantially increases the effectiveness of resins)

101
Q

Why use bile acid sequestrants

A

Bile acid sequestrants are used to treat patients with primary hypercholesterolemia (reduces LAL by 20%);
Monotherapy or in combination with niacin for treatment of Type II a and type IIb hyperlipidemia; use to relieve pruritus in patients who have bile salt accumulation
