PDA 1 Diabetes Drugs

Diabetes Drug Mechanisms

QuestionAnswer
intermediate/long-acting basal insulin
rapid and short-acting bolus insulin
replace proline at B28 with aspartic acid residue insulin aspart (bolus)
proline at B28 and lysine at B29 are reversed insulin lispro (bolus)
protamine-insulin (bolus) complex; disassociates after cleavage making it intermediate acting netral protamine hagedorn (NPH) (basal)
add fatty acid moiety to LysB29; increases self-aggregation and reversible albumin binding insulin detemir (basal)
two arginine residues added to C terminus of B chain + asparagine at A21 is replaced with glycine - exists as a hexamer in solution at pH 4, dissociates at pH 7 (provides prolonged predictable absorption fro SC injection) PEAKLESS ABSORPTION glargine (basal insulin)
imitates increase of ATP - inhibits K efflux channel: (increase of intracellular ATP results in inhibition of K+ efflux protein channel; results in depolarization & activation of the Ca channel, which results in exocytosis of insulin granules into blood) sulfonylureas
imitates increase of ATP - inhibits K efflux channel: (increase of intracellular ATP results in inhibition of K+ efflux protein channel; results in depolarization & activation of the Ca channel, which results in exocytosis of insulin granules into blood) K+ channel modulators
mimic the insulin pathway! (AMPK is naturally activated when cellular ATP stores are reduced - AMPK phosphorylates AS160 in a manner similar to Akt/PKB (a part of the insulin receptor pathway!)) AMPK agonists
increases activity of AMPK - mech unknown (not direct activation) metformin (an AMPK agonist)
substrate for PPAR gamma (which is a group of nuclear receptors responsible for the regulation of genes involved in glucose and lipid metabolism) --> when these drugs bind to PPAR g, results in activation of AMPK thiazolidinediones (PPAR gamma agonists)
binds to GLP-1 receptors in the pancreas and hypothalamus resulting in: 1) stimulation of insulin secretion 2) inhibition of glucagon release 3) delay of stomach emptying - reduces food intake b/c you think you're full GLP-1 receptor agonists
inhibits DPP-4 so that GLP-1 (normal substrate for it) does not bind --> increases GLP-1 conc causing: 1) stimulation of insulin secretion 2) inhibition of glucagon release 3) delay of stomach emptying - reduces food intake b/c you think you're full DPP-4 inhibitors
work in brush border of small intestine! these drugs stop a-glucosidase from breaking down starches, dextrin, and disaccharides into sugars that can be absorbed: 1) slow absorption of carbs from GI tract 2) increase release of GLP-1 alpha-glucosidase inhibitors
mimic actions of amylin! (amylin is a 37 AA peptide produced by the B cells of the pancreas) actions: 1) reduced glucagon release 2) delayed gastric emptying 3) satiety (hunger satisfaction) --> plasma glucose levels reduced amylin receptor agonists
small AA peptide with sequence similar to that of amylin pramlintide
lower plasma glucose - mech unknown but could be: 1) good at binding fat, bile acid, and glucose in plasma OR 2) act as a nuclear receptor signaling molecule bile acid binding resins
released by the pancreas naturally in response to low blood sugar - bind with Gs-protein coupled receptor (results in synthesis of cAMP) stimulates production of glucose by: 1) gluconeogenesis 2) glycogen breakdown glucagon
interacts with the K+ channel on the pancreatic B cells results: 1) prevents closing of channel 2) prolongs open time of channel --> prevents release of insulin diazoxide

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
