  • 3rd side (hint)
drugs that target cell wall synthesis
cycloserine
bacitracin
vancomycin
b lactams
cycloserine
target cell wall synthesis;
interferes with production of D-alanine and its coupling
bacitracin
target cell wall synthesis;
interfers with cycling lipid carrier that transfer PG subunits
vancomycin
target cell wall synthesis;
prevents crosslinking/elongation of repeating disaccharide (NAG-NAM) subunits
B lactams: penicillin
blocks crosslinking of PGs
folate antagonists
trimethoprim (bacteria), pyrimethamine (malarial parasite), methotrexate (ALL cancer cells)
5-FU
blocks thymidine biosynthesis and is a pyrimidine analog
Ara-c
mercaptopurine
pyrimidine analog, inhibitor of DNA replication and repair polymerases
cell membranes targets; anti fungals
polymixin, amphotericin B, nystatin
protein synthesis inhibitors
chloramphenicol, tetracyclines, erythromycin, streptogramins, linezolid
translational miscoding
aminoglycosides
Clavulanic acid
mimic of b-lactams, helps circumvents resistance. This drug doesn’t interfere with crosslinking though and needs to be added with penicillin.
Cephalosporins
B-lactam like. They differ in side chain from penicillin, and if something is resistant to penicillin, it might not be to cephalosporins
50S subunit inhibitors
macrolides
chloramphenicol
lincosamides
streptogramins
oxazolidinones
30S subunit
aminoglycosides
spectinomycin
tetracyclines
aminoglycoside
bind rRNA in 30S subunit and binds incorrect tRNA. nephrotocity and ototoxicity ex: gentamicin and streptomycin
tetracycline
blocks a.a tRNA binding to A site; bacteriostatic, pGI problems, chelates Ca and is not rec for children and pregnant women
chloramphenicol and lincosamides
inhibit peptidyl transferase; chlorampenicol = bacteriostatic. side effects = bone marrow depression, grey baby
streptinomycin, macrolides, streptogramins
inhibit peptide translocation.
macrolides= bacteriocidal/static. can cause jaundice
lincosamides = can cause pseudomembranous colitis
streptogramins = synergistic (with quinupristin which binds 50s), active against drug resistance
fusidic acid
narrow spectrum Ab, inhibits protein syn; bone infections; side effects: gi
oxalazidonones
inhibit fMet-tRNA binding to large subunit, active against drug resistance
Topo II inhibitors
quinolones, ciprofloxacin
topo I inhibitor
camptothecin
folic acid competitve inhibitors
sulfanilamide, sulfadiazine
DHFR inhibitors
trimethoprim
transduction
bacterial gene spreads through bacteriophage
transformation
bacteria takes up DNA from its environment
antiviral--inhibitors of gp41 fusion in HIV
maraviroc--CCR5 inhbitor
enfuvirtide--HR2 mimic that hides fusion protein and prevents membrane fusion
antiviral--inhibit M2 channel to prevent flu virus uncoating
amantadine
rimantadine
acyclovir
purine analog. chain terminator in DNA
non-nu antiviral
inhibit base pair checking in DNA polymerase
anthracycline antibiotics
DNA intercalating agents and inhibitors of topo II
daunorubicin, doxorubicin, mitoxantrone
camptothecins
topo I poisons (stabilized topo I-DNA adduct)
other -tecans.
TDP1 hydrolyzes the bond, form of resistance.
DNA alkylating agents
reacts to form covalent adduct with DNA bases
nitrosoureas
alkylating agent for CNS tumors
cisplatin/carboplatin
DNA crosslinking agents for treating testicular and ovarian cancers
6-thiopurines
mercapto-, thioguanine.
-loss of HGPRT -> resistance
allopurinol blocks oxidation of drugs
2-deoxycoformycin (pentostatin)
inhibits adenosine deaminase -> adenosine buildup; used for leukemia.
hydroxy urea
inhibits pulrine salvage, deplete dNTP pools
vinca alkyloids (vinblastine, vincristine)
bind to b-tubulin, interfere with spindle apparatus
vinblastine = metastitic testicular cancer
vincristine = childhood leukemia
taxanes
bind MTs, prevent disassembly and remodeling
cetuximab
monoclonal ab. interferes with EGFR signaling, treats metastatic colorectal cancer
bevacizumab
monoconal ab against VEGF, VEGFR-2
gemtuzumab
monoclonal Ab agonist that targets AML cells, linked to an antibiotic that causes DNA fragmentation
glucocorticoids
suppress mitosis in lyphocytes
SERM
selective estrogen R modulators
ie: tamoxifen--competitve antagonist
SERD
selective estrogen R downregulator; "pure anti-estrogens"
fulvestrant
anti-estrogen that prevents estrogen R dimerization and R degredation
aromatase inhibitors
type 1: irreversibly inactivate aromatase, bind substrate site
type 2: reversibly binds to heme group
P-glycoprotein
P-gp pumps drugs out of Gi, CNS, cancer cells.
Substrates: digoxin, fexofenadine, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, loperamide
