14 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Cyclosporine
MOA: bind cylophilin -> complex binds calcineurin causing inhibition -> no IL-2 or IL-2 receptor produced

Tox: inc risk of viral infxn and lymphoma; nephrotoxic (prevent w/ mannitol
Glucocorticoids
Inhibit integrins = leukocytosis

Bind NF-kB downregulate -> dec IL-2 and IL-2 receptors
Molecular biology T cell activation
T cell: MHC class II and TCR; B7(CD80/86) and CD28
3 pathways carry through CD3
1.) calcium-calcineurin
2.) RAS-MAP Kinase
3.) NF-kB
make
IL2 and receptor
these bind one another -> mTOR -> cyclin
Tacrolimus
(FD506)
MOA: Binds FK-binding protiein -> complex binds calcineurin -> inhibits signal transduction and IL-2 production

Toxicity: Nephrotoxicity, peripheral neuropathy, HTN, pleural effusion, hyperglycemia
Sirolimus
- rapamycin
MOA: inhibits mTOR. therefore inhibits Tcell response to IL-2

Use: kidney transplant (cyclosporine + sirolimus + glucocorticoid)

Tox: Hyperlipidemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia
Daclizumab
monoclonal Ab to IL-2 receptors on activated T-cells
Muromonab
Muromonab-CD3 (OKT3)
- MOA: monoclonal Ab binds CD3 (epsilon chain) on T cell surface -> block signal transduction
- Cytokine release syndrome (after 1st dose); hypersensitivity Rxn
Azathioprine
MOA: antimetabolite, converted to 6-mercaptopurine; interrupts nucleic acid synthesis and toxic to proliferating T cells

USE: kidney transplant and autoimmune

Tox: BM suppression; Mercaptopurine is metabolized by xanthine oxidase therefore toxic effects inc w/ allopurinol
Aldesleukin:
Aldesleukin: IL-2; RCC, metastatic melanoma
Filgrastim
Sargamostim
Oprelvekin
thrombopoietin
Filgrastim = G-CSF; BM recovery

Sargamostim = GM-CSF; BM recovery

Oprelvekin = IL-11; thombocytopenia

Thrombopoietin = thrombocytopenia
Infliximab
TNF-alpha antibody

Use: PAIR = psoriasis, chrons
Rheumatoid arthritis
Adalimumab
TNF-a antibody

RA, Chron's Psoriartic arthritis
Abciximab
Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antibody

prevent cardiac ischemia in unstable angina and in pts tx w/ percutaneous coronary intervention
Rituximab
CD20 Ab

B-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
