knockout mice and COX2
inhibiting COX2 prevented polyps
which prostaglandin protects intestinal mucosa
PGE
ACE inhibitors (3)
Captopril
Enalopril
Ramipril
what do endothelial cells do on their surfaces
1. ATPase and 5'nucleotidase degrade ATP and ADP

2. inactivate PGE, PGF, LTC4, LTD4
5 intracellular activities of endothelial cells
1. MAO (decreases plasma monoamines). because NE is vasoconstrictor

2. activated state: thromboplastin synthesis and secretion to initiate clotting

3. resting state: plasminogen activator synthesis and secretion to initiate clot fibrinolysis

4. resting: prostacyclin (PGI2) production

5. EDRF (vasodilator)
activated state of endothelial cells
pro-inflammatory
pro-coagulant
pathway with plasminogen activator
resting endothelial cell produces plasminogen activator

this is a serine protease that cleaves plasminogen (which is incorporated into the clot) into plasmin

plasmin is a serine protease that breaks down fibrin
CO and plasminogen activator
CO inhibits endothelial plasminogen activator production

therefore inhibits fibrinolysis
CO and cigarette smoke
CO damages endothelial cell
prevents the resting endothelial cell from fibrinolysis
promotes clotting
thrombophilia
pro-clotting state
role of heparin
produced by mast cells
removes thrombin
role of citrate and oxalate
complex with Ca
coagulation proteins want to use Ca
effect of prostacyclin on platelet aggregation
inhibits
prostacyclin letter number code
PGI2
pathway on page 8 (both)
ok
role of resting endothelial cells
prevent thrombosis
precursor for EDRF
arginine
how is PGI2 (prostacyclin) production inhibited
COX2 inhibitor
Vioxx AKA
rofecoxib
EDRF AKA
NO
mechanism of action of NO
1. ACh binds to muscarinic receptor on endothelial cell

2. EDRF/NO is made from arginine

3. diffuses to smooth muscle (quickly because it is a radical so it has a short half life)

4. in smooth muscle it increases cGMP

5. cGMP results in smooth muscle relaxation
what catalyzes the rxn of arginine to NO
nitric oxide synthase (NOS)
analogous to:
NADPH:P450 monooxygenase
cofactors (/side rxns) of NOS
NADPH -> NADP+
O2 --> H2O
steps of NO production
L-arginine
N-OH-arginine
L-citulline + NO

each step also involves NADPH -> NADP+ and O2 -> H2O
3 uses of nitroglycerin
angina
HT
vasodilation
adverse effects of nitroglycerin
oxidative stress
headache unless tolerance
how does tolerance develop to nitroglycerin
vascular ALDH in mitochondria reduces NG to activate it
ALDH is inactivated by peroxynitrite
peroxynitrite is formed when NO reacts with superoxide radical
2 NO generators (used for vasodilation)
amyl nitrite
nitroglycerin
amyl nitrite AKA
isopentyl nitrite
vasodilation in rectal mucosa (which drug)
butyl nitrite
what causes acute hemolysis in G6PD deficient individuals
butyl nitrite
amyl nitrite as a cyanide antidote
nitrite oxidizes oxyhemoglobin to methemoglobin
Fe3+ of methemoglobin complexes cyanide
3 uses of amyl nitrite
1. Rx for angina
2. aphrodisiac
3. cyanide antidote
Rx amyl nitrate route of admin
inhaled from glass ampules that are enclosed in mesh and crushed in the fingers
what reverses NG tolerance
antioxidants
statins
carvediol
thiols
hydralazine
which major pathways of metabolism occur in the cytosol (3)
glycolysis
pentose phosphate pathway
fatty acid synthesis
which 4 major pathways of metabolism occur in the mitochondrial matrix
citric acid cycle
oxidative phosphorylation
beta oxidation of fatty acids
ketone body formation
which 2 major pathways of metabolism involve interplay of both compartments
gluconeogenesis
urea synthesis
products of Citric acid cycle
3NADH
FADH2
GTP
2H+
2CO2
3 inhibitors of the citric acid cycle and what enzyme they act on
see slide 4

halonate - succinate dehydrogenase
flurocitrate/fluroacetate/fluoroacetyl coA - aconitase
arsenite - alpha ketoglutarate dehydrogenase
draw citric acid cycle from 2nd last page of notebook
ok
the citric acid is a source of biosynthetic precursors
see slide 5

1. alpha keto-glutarate --> amino acids

2. succinyl coA ---> porphyrins

3. oxaloacetate --> amino acids
oxaloacetate --> Phosphoenol pyruvate ---> glucose
oxaloacetate is sometimes used for generation of glucose and amino acids. how is oxaloacetate regeneration for continuation of the citric acid cycle
from pyruvate
how is the citric acid cycle regulated
1. ATP
2. NADH
3. coA products
4. electron acceptors

see slide 6
electron acceptor regulation of the citric acid cycle
required for the last 4 steps of the citric acid cycle (except fumarate to malate)
ATP regulation of the citric acid cycle
pyruvate --> acetyl coA
acetyl coA to citrate
isocitrate --> alpha ketoglutarate
coA and NADH regulation of the citric acid cycle
acetyl coA and succinyl coA inhibit their own synthesis
these steps are also inhibited by NADH
name of hypothesis that says that mitochondria evolved from anaerobic bacteria
endosymbiont hypothesis
endosymbiont hypothesis
mitochondria evolved from anaerobic bacteria that were phagocytosed by eukaroytic cells at the time that oxygen appeared on earth
mitochondria and bacteria are similar in that they both have
cardiolipin
transporters
