WHY BE CONCERNED ABOUT HOW DRUGS WORK? Better assessment of new modalities for using drugs Better assessment of new indications for drugs Better assessment of new concerns regarding risk-benefit AIDS EVALUATION OF MEDICAL LITERATURE:
6
WHY BE CONCERNED ABOUT HOW DRUGS WORK? The patient has more respect for and trust in a therapist who can convey to the patient how the drug is affecting the patient’s body. AIDS PATIENT-DOCTOR RELATIONSHIP: A patient who understands his/her therapy is more inclined to become an active participant in the management of the patient’s disease.
7
WHY BE CONCERNED ABOUT HOW DRUGS WORK? Knowledge of how a drug works increases the therapist’s confidence that the drug is being used appropriately. PEACE OF MIND!

HOW DO DRUGS WORK? Some antagonize, block or inhibit endogenous proteins Some activate endogenous proteins A few have unconventional mechanisms of action

HOW DO DRUGS ANTAGONIZE, BLOCK OR INHIBIT ENDOGENOUS PROTEINS? Antagonists of Cell Surface Receptors Antagonists of Nuclear Receptors Enzyme Inhibitors Ion Channel Blockers Transport Inhibitors Inhibitors of Signal Transduction Proteins
10
A macromolecular component of the organism that binds the drug and initiates its effect. Definition of RECEPTOR: Most receptors are proteins that have undergone various post-translational modifications such as covalent attachments of carbohydrate, lipid and phosphate.
11
A receptor that is embedded in the cell membrane and functions to receive chemical information from the extracellular compartment and to transmit that information to the intracellular compartment. Definition of CELL SURFACE RECEPTOR:
12
HOW DO DRUGS WORK BY ANTAGONIZING CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS? KEY CONCEPTS: Cell surface receptors exist to transmit chemical signals from the outside to the inside of the cell. Some compounds bind to cell surface receptors, yet do not activate the receptors to trigger a response. When cell surface receptors bind the molecule, the endogenous chemical cannot bind to the receptor and cannot trigger a response. The compound is said to “antagonize” or “block” the receptor and is referred to as a receptor antagonist.

16
Footnote: Most antagonists attach to binding site on receptor for endogenous agonist and sterically prevent endogenous agonist from binding. If binding is reversible - Competitive antagonists If binding is irreversible - Noncompetitive antagonists However, antagonists may bind to remote site on receptor and cause allosteric effects that displace endogenous agonist or prevent endogenous agonist from activating receptor.

25
HOW DO DRUGS WORK BY INHIBITING ENZYMES? KEY CONCEPTS: Enzymes catalyze the biosynthesis of products from substrates. Some drugs bind to enzymes and inhibit enzymatic activity. Loss of product due to enzyme inhibition mediates the effects of enzyme inhibitors.
26
ARE DRUGS THAT INHIBIT ENZYMES CLINICALLY USEFUL? Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors for pain relief, particularly due to arthritis (aspirin; ibuprofen [Motrin ® ]) Some important examples: Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors for high blood pressure, heart failure, and chronic renal insufficiency (captopril [Capoten ® ]; ramipril [Altace ® ]) HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors for hypercholesterolemia (atorvastatin [Lipitor ® ]; pravastatin [Pravachol ® ])

HOW DO DRUGS WORK BY ACTIVATING ENDOGENOUS PROTEINS?

32
HOW DO CHEMICALS WORK BY ACTIVATING CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS? KEY CONCEPTS: Cell surface receptors exist to transmit chemical signals from the outside to the inside of the cell. Some chemicals bind to cell surface receptors and trigger a response. Chemicals in this group are called receptor agonists. Some agonists are actually the endogenous chemical signal, whereas other agonists mimic endogenous chemical signals.

Disrupting of Structural Proteins e.g. vinca alkaloids for cancer, colchicine for gout Being Enzymes e.g. streptokinase for thrombolysis Covalently Linking to Macromolecules e.g. cyclophosphamide for cancer Reacting Chemically with Small Molecules e.g. antacids for increased acidity Binding Free Molecules or Atoms e.g. drugs for heavy metal poisoning, infliximab (anti-TNF)
