Concerns with Herbal Meds
|
Contaminents
Components that interact with other drugs |
|
Do drugs create physiologic effects?
|
No, they modulate them.
|
|
All drugs require?
|
A receptor
Drugs are ligands for the receptors |
|
Describe types of drug receptors
|
Physiologic receptors (ones acted on by hormones, neurotransmitters, etc)
Non-physiologic: enzymes, structural proteins, transport protein, nucleic acids |
|
Receptor specificity
|
Ligand
Process initiated by ligand binding |
|
Agonist
|
Ligands that interact with a receptor and initiate a response
|
|
Antagonists
|
Occupy a receptor site but either do not initiate a response or inhibit the normal response
|
|
GR
|
Steriod receptor in nuclear receptor superfamily
GC hormones (and similar substances) are agonists that result in nuclear translocation of GR and transcriptional activation of hormone sensitive genes |
|

5 |

Decrease w/ distance (VDW to 7th power) Covalent interactions -- some antagonists with irreversible effect Drugs are not usually charged |
|
Drug-receptor association and dissociation
|
Better the pocket fit the more stable the complex
All non-covalent complexes dissociate--terminating drug action |

|
[drug]
[receptor] drug-receptor affinity |
|

|
Number of drug-receptor complexes
|

Easier to see ED50 and LD50 |
|
Grade or continual dose response curves
|
Individual response to increases doses of drug
Typically results in a sigmoidal log-linear Only informs about individual, although shapes of the curves are usually the same (receptor interactions) |
|
Primary effect
|
desired affect of therapeutic value
|
|
Side effects or undesired effects
|
non-target effects, not necessarily bad
|
|
Toxic effects
|
always bad
|
|
Components of dose
|
Amount
Duration and frequency Chemical form Physical Form Route |
|
Relationships between therapeutic and toxic effects of drugs
|
1. Single receptor, signal effector pathway leading to desired and undesired effects (difficult to separate)
2. Single receptor, multiple effector pathways (block toxic pathway downstream) 3. Two receptors (block toxic pathway or design new drug that is more specific) |
|
OTC efficacy requirements
|
Dose must be effective in 99% of people with no harm
|
|
Degree of safety of a drug is determined by?
|
Separation between therapeutic and toxic effects
Ideally max effective dose would be lower than beginning of lethal curve |
|
Therapeutic index (TI)
|
LD50/ED50
Should be greater than 1, bigger is better, ideally greater than 10 Does not tell you if the curves overlap |
|
