Are they cleared out of the body QUICKLY or SLOWLY? |
Fast onset in the brain (opposite of lipophilic inhaled anesthetic)
Cleared slowly as stored in fat and muscles after anesthetic levels drop in brain. (These properties have nothing to do with metabolism, just lipophilic) |

2) Maintenance anesthesia |
|
Inhaled anesthetics: side effects
|
Respiratory depression (decrease pump function)

Salicylates (Aspirin) Ibuprofen (Advil and Motrin) Naproxen (Aleve) Acetaminophen (Tylenol) COX-2 inhibitors (Vioxx and Celebrex) (Non-selectively block COX-1&2; most adverse effects due to inhibition of COX-1) |

|
What NSAID irreversibly inhibits COX-1&2?

|
Aspirin adverse effects
|
Reyes Syndrome:
Aspirin given to child/adolescent with viral fever. Vomiting, confusion then stupor, fatty liver then coma/death. No cure, 50% die. Upper GI bleed: Directly damage (weak acid) Indirectly damage from inhibiting COX-1 (increase acid, decrease mucous) |

|
DNA damage can arrest cell cycle in...
|
G1, S, G2 to M
|
|
Pathway for DSB repair? Path for excessive ssDNA?
|
DSB-->ATM (DNA repair) phosphrylates/stabilizes p53 (arrest in G1, death if can't repair)
ssDNA-->ATR (DNA repair) activates Chk1 (DNA repair, S-phase arrest, G2 arrest) *DNA repair/processing can convert DSBs to ssDNA and vice versa* |
|
What causes double strand breaks (DSB)?
|
1) Normal DNA metabolism (i.e. meiotic recombo)
2) Ionizing radiation (ssDNA breaks but close together so effectively is DSB; electrons reacts with H2O to make clouds of OH radicals) |
|
What's ATM?
What activates it? What's it do? What if it's mutated? Arrest in which part of cycle? |
ATM is a protein kinase tumor suppressor
Activated by DSB in DNA Leads to DNA repair, cell cycle arret in G1 (checkpoint), and can cause cell death if can't repair) Phosphorylates and stabilizes *p53* (p53 leads to G1 arrest and/or cell death) If mutated, sensitive to DSB (not other stuff like UV). People with Atxia-Telangiectasia have mutated ATM. G1 arrest |
|
p53
|
p53 is a transcription factor that transcription factor that binds DNA and induces the transcription of specific genes that regulate DNA repair, apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, etc.
Stabilized/phosphorylated by ATM Activate p21 which... -Inhibits Cdk4/5 and cyclin D -Inhibits Cdk2 and cyclin E *This makes cell stuck in G1 |
|
What results in ssDNA?
|
Anything that inhibits replication
*Block DNA polymerase (helicase keeps unwinding ahead) -DNA break -Crosslinked DNA (cisplatin) -Block dNTP production -Gemcitabine (incorporated into DNA) |
|
What's ATR?
What activates it? What's it do? Arrest in which part of cycle? |
ATR is a protein kinase tumor supressor
Activated by ssDNA Phosphorylates and activates Chk1 (kinase). Chk1 activates stuff to block... *Cdk2/cyclin A=arrest in S phase *Cdk1/cyclin B=arrest in G2 |
|
Radiotherapy
(how used and what can make cells resist it) |
Give many small doses (normal cells can recover faster than tumor cells)
ATM can help tumor cells recover from the double strand breaks (ATM inhibitors could enhance tumor response) |
|
Cisplatin
|
Chemotherapeutic rug that creates intrastrand crosslinks. Stall DNA polymerase to create ssDNA. ssDNA activates ATR-Chk1 (arrest in S or G2).
|
|
Block dNTP production as cancer treatment
|
Stops DNA polymerase bc run out of dNTPs for new DNA. Results in ssDNA (activate ATR-Chk1 to stop in S or G2)
|
|
Gemcitabine
|
Gemcitabine is converted to gemcitabine triphosphate (Gem-TP) which is incorporated to DNA (looks like dCTP.
Stops DNA polymerase (activate ATR-Chk1) (Chk 1 inhibition increases sensitivity of tumor cells to Gemcitabine so more will die instead of successfully repairing) *Chk1 can help tumors survive genotoxic chemotherapy |
|
Imatinib/Gleevec
|
Inhibits bcr-abl
Treats chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) (Use to treat CML with IFN + Cytarabine but gives flu like symptoms) |
|
Bcr-abl
|
Abl from chr9 goes to chr22
Bcr-abl kinase activates (hydrolyzes ATP to phosphorylate) multiple survival and proliferation pathways (Ras/Raf, Stat, Myc, Akt) |
|
Imatinib/Gleevec resistance
|
1) Bcr-abl copy number increases and is selected for
2) Bcr-abl active site for binding ATP or Gleevec mutated so Gleevec can't bind Other: Elevated P-glycoprotein (Mdr1) Elevated expression of kinases that can phosphorylate the activation loop of Bcr/abl Resistance can occur at several levels: -Altered drug uptake -Enhanced drug metabolism -Mutations that render the target less sensitive -Modifications in other pathways that bypass the inhibitor… *Can increase imatinib dose but eventually will need to get new drug |
|

|
Bcr/ablkinase inhibitor with increased activityagainst Bcr/abl mutants
|
|

2) Maintain telomeres during replication 3) Metastasize 4) Evade normal death signals 5) Disable normal cytostatic signaling mechanisms 6) Autonomously proliferate |
|
Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling pathways (general)
|
Regulate differentiation, growth, proliferation, survival, metabolism, and cell movement
Richly populated with oncogenes and tumor suppressors Important driver of tumorigenesis |
|
Outline RTK signaling pathway for Ras
|
1) Initiate with receptor dimerization
2) Kinase activity of receptor phosphorylates other proteins 3) RTK phosphorylation at tyrosine creates docking site for SH2 4) SH2 binds Grb2/SOS complex 5) Grb2/SOS converts Ras-GDP to Ras GTP (GAP turns Ras off (GDP bound) 6) Ras activates MEK, activates ERK 7)ERK phosphorylates substrates that promote proliferation and survival (this path and other RTK paths result in: entry into cell cycle, growth, survival) RTK also turns on... -STAT activated -AKT activated |
|
GAP
|
Tumor suppresor that converts Ras-GTP to inactive Ras-GDP
|
|
Ras is an oncogene when...
|
...it's mutated to only bind GTP (always on)
(mutated in about 50% of tumors) |
|
B-Raf is an oncogene when
|
...mutated to be constitutively active (mutated in 60% of malignant tumors)
|
|
PI3-K, PTEN, AKT
(which is oncogene, which is tumor suppressor?) |
PI3-K=oncogene (over expressed/active in tumors)
PTEN=tumor suppressor (turns off PI3-K and is inactivated in tumors) AKT=oncogene (turned on by PI3 and increases proliferation) |
|
Outline PI3-K/AKT pathway
|
1) PI3-K is activated by binding to phosphorylated RTK or GTP-Ras
2) PI3-K produces PIP3, a lipid second messenger 3) PIP3 activates the protein kinase AKT 4) AKT phosphorylates protein substrates that enhance survival 5) One AKT activates mTOR, which regulates the translation of mRNAs required for proliferation |
|
Outline STAT pathway
|
1) STAT binds phosphrylated tyrosine of RTK
2) STAT dimerizes and goes to nucleus to activate transcription |
|
RTK signaling allows cell to enter which phase
|
S (drive them past the restriction point in G1)
|
|
cyclin D
|
activates Cdk4 (RTK signaling induces cyclin D to enter S phase)
