What the mechanisms bacteria us to adhere to the host?
1. Pilli (Fimbrae)
2. Specific Surface Proteins (Internalin)
3. Type III Secretion Systems
What are the steps that bacteria use to get out of the cells they invade?
1. Replication within the vacuole
2. lysis and vacuole and replication in the cytosol
What type do each of these TLR detect?
TLR2
TLR4
TLR3
TLR9
TLR2- Gram Negaive (not-essential) & positive (essential)
TLR4- Gram negative, not response to positive
TLR3- Double stranded DNA (viruses)
TLR9- Un-methylated CpG di-nucleotides
What are the four ways that antiboitics attack bacteria?
1. Cell Wall
2. Metabolism
3. Cell Membrane
4. Transcription and Translation
Bacterialstatic
Causes the colony of bacteria to stop growing, but does not decrease the population
Bactericidal
Kills the bacteria, decreasing the population size.
What is the difference between narrow, extended, and broad spectrum drugs?
Narrow- One class of Bacteria
Extended- Two Classes of Bacteria
Broad- Many Classes of Bacteria
How do Beta lactam antibiotics work?
limit bacteria to form peptidogylcan walls by inhibiting their enzymes that create them.
What drugs that are classified as Beta-lactam antibiotics?
1. Penicillins
2. Cephlasporins
3. Carbapenems/ Monobactams
4. Combination Therapy
Name the natural Penicillins?
Penicillins V and Penicillin G

(Penicillin V is more acid-resistant and used to treat oral infections.)
Name the Anti-Staphylococcal antibiotics
Methicillin
Naficillin
Oxacillin
Cloxacillin
Dicloxacillin
(Used so much lead to MRSA)
Name the extended spectrum penicillins
Amoxicillin (has 100% F-oral)

Ampicillin (causes diarrhea)
Adverse effects of Penicillins
1. Allergic reations
2. Diarrhea
3. Neurotoxicity (high concentrations)
4.Platelet Dysfunction (carbenicillin & penicillin G)
5. Interstitial Nephtitis
Mechanisms of Resistance
1. Beta-Lactamases
2. Altered PBP's
3. Decreased permeability to drug
1st generation Cephlasporins
cephalexin

cefazolin
2nd generation cephlasporins
Cefoxitin
Cefuroxime
Cefaclor
3rd generation cephlasporins
Cefixime
Ceftriaxone
Ceftazidine (penetrates bone)
Cefotaxime (penetrate CSF)
4th genereation cephlasporins
Cefepime
Cephlasporin side effects
Same as the penicillins but milder
Carbapenems and Monobactams
Imipenem- broadest beta-lactam

Aztreonam
Protein Synthesis Antibiotics and their mechanism of Action
1. Tetracyclines- Inhibits the small 30s ribosomal unit
2. Aminoglycosides- same as tetracyclines
3. Macrolides- inhibit large subunit
4. Other
Chloramphenicol-inhibits the peptidyl transferase on large subunit
Clindamycin- large subunit
Side effects of Tetracyclines
1. GI Irritation
2. Photosensitivity
3. Hepatic toxicity
4. Renal toxicity
5. Discoloration of teeth
6. Depressed bone growth
Side effects of aminoglycosides
1. Ototoxicity
2. Nephrotoxicity
3. Paralysis
Marolide Side Effects
1. Ototoxicity
2. GI Problems
3. Cholestatic Jaudice
Chloramphenical Adverse Effects
1. Can inhibit protien synthesis in Humans
Clindamycin adverse effects
1. Diarrhea
2. Skin Rash
3. Pseudomembranous Colitis
Drugs that inhibit Metabolism
1. Quinolones
2. Anti-metabolites
3. Anti-mycobacterial Agents
What is the mechanism of Quinolones?
Inhibits DNA and Topoisomerase IV

Most active quinolones have a F atom
What are the adverse effects of Quinolones?
1. Overall Well tolerated
2. NVD
3. Occational Headache and Diarrhea
What is the mechanism of Sulfonamides?
Sulfonamides are competitive inhibitors with the enzymes that act on PABA
What two drugs are used in combination therapy?
Sulfonamide and Trimethoprim
What are the drugs use for trigeminal neuralgia
1. Carbamazepine
2. Phenytoin
3. GABApentin
4. Valproate
What is the mechanism of Phenytoin?
Blocks Sodium channels

Increases the activity of many p450's
What is the mechanism of Carbamazepine?
Same as Phenytoin
What is the mechanism of GABApentin?
Blocks GABA receptors
What is the treatment for Acute Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome?
Benzodiazepines
Reduces severity of withdrawal, delirium, and seizures
