What are the 30S ribosome inhibitors?
|
but AT 30!
aminoglycosides tetracyclines |
|
What are the 50S ribosome inhibitors?
|
CCEL at 50!
chloramphenicol clindamycin erythromycin linezolid |
|
What are the 5 aminoglycosides?
|
GNATS
gentamycin neomycin amikacin tobramycin streptomycin |
|
How do aminoglycosides work?
|
Anti-30S; inhibit initiation complex and --> mRNA misreading; require O2 for uptake (can't kill anaerobes)
|
|
What are aminoglycosides used for?
|
severe gram-negative bacillary infections
|
|
What are aminoglycosides synergistic with?
|
beta-lactam antibiotics (aztreonam esp.)
|
|
What is neomycin routinely used for?
|
bowel surgery
|
|
What is the toxicity of aminoglycosides?
|
Nephrotoxicity
Ototoxicity Teratogenicity |
|
What confers resistance to aminoglycosides?
|
Transferase enzymes --> acetylation, phosphorylation, adenylation
|
|
What are the tetracyclines? (4)
|
tetracycline
doxycycline demeclocycline minocycline |
|
What is a non-antibiotic use of demeclocycline?
|
ADH-agonist diuretic in SIADH
|
|
What is the mechanism of tetracyclines?
|
bacteriostatic - bind 30S and prevent tRNA attachment
|
|
Which protein-synthesis antibiotics don't have CNS penetration?
|
tetracyclines
|
|
Which tetracycline can be used in renal failure?
|
doxycycline due to fecal elimination
|
|
Which substances inhibit tetracycline absorption in the gut?
|
milk
antacids iron-preps divalent cations inhibit absorption |
|

Borrelia burgdorferi
M. pneumoniae Rickettsia Chlamydia (both intracellular) |
|
What are toxicities of tetracyclines?
|
GI distress
dental discoloration bone growth inhibition photosensitivity teratogenic |
|
What confers resistance to tetracyclines?
|
decreased uptake or increased efflux from plasmid-encoded pumps
|
|
What are 3 macrolides?
|
erythromycin
azithromyzin clarithromycin |
|
How do macrolides work?
|
block translocation; binds 23S on 50S; bacteriostatic
|
|
What are macrolides used for?
|
atypical pneumonia (mycoplasma, chlamydia, legionella)
URIs STDs gram-pos cocci Neisseria |
|
What are toxicities of macrolides?
|
prolonged QT (erythromycin)
GI distress acture cholestatic hepatitis eosinophilia rashes |
|
What drugs do macrolides interact with?
|
increase the serum concentration of theophyllines and oral anticoagulants
|
|
What confers macrolide resistance?
|
methlyation of 23S binding site
|
|
How does chloramphenicol work?
|
blocks peptide bond formation on 50S subunit
|
|
What is chloramphenicol used for?
|
meningitis (Haemophilus, Neisseria, S. pneumo)
conservative used outside of developing countries |
|
What is the toxicity of chloramphenicol?
|
anemia (dose-dependent)
aplastic anemia gray baby syndrome (premature infants lack UDP-glucuronyl transferase) |
|
What confers resistance to chloramphenicol?
|

What is clindamycin used to treat?
|
anaerobes in aspiration pneumonia or lung abscesses
Bacteroides Clostridium perfringens |
|
What is the toxicity of clindamycin?
|
pseudomembranous colitis
fever diarrhea |
