The growth factor, GM-CSF, first affects the trilineage myeloid stem cells and stimulates it
G-CSF is [1] and causes [2] 1. single lineage 2. neutrophils
TPO is a [1] GF pluripotent
EPO is [1]; it only impacts the development of cells starting with [2]. 1. single lineage 2. BFU-E
For EPO, receptors are on immature RBC's starting with BFU-E and on erythrocytes, which are mature.
The growth factor, GM-CSF, affects the GM-CSF
For darbepoetin, there is change in [1] amino acids to add glycosylation. The change in amino acids results in [2] more glycosylation sites. 1. 4 2. 2
Darbepoetin has a [1] binding affinity moderate
Darbepoetin has a [1] half-life compared to Epoetin alfa longer
With ESAs, Hct. may rise quickly after 1st administration due to release of reticulocytes
Takes about [1] days before erythrocyte progenitor cells are continuously released into circulation. 10
Polycythemia, blood hyperviscosity, stroke, MI, Pure red cell aplasia - development of neutralizing antibodies against erythropoietin HTN May reduce survival in H&N carcinomas Allergic reactions ESA adverse effects
Iron deficiency causes [1] anemia microcytic hypochromic
Intestinal epithelial cells actively absorb inorganic iron via the divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1)
Intestinal epithelial cells actively absorb heme iron via the heme carrier protein 1 (HCP1)
Iron that is absorbed or released from absorbed heme iron in the intestine is actively transported into the blood by [1] and stored as [2] 1. ferroportin (FP) 2. ferritin (F)
In the blood, iron is transported by [1] to erythroid precursors in the bone marrow for synthesis of Hgb in RBCs; or to hepatocytes for storage as [2] 1. transferrin (Tf) 2. ferritin (F)
High hepatic iron stores [1] hepcidin synthesis, which inhibits [2] 1. increase 2. ferroportin
Low hepatocyte iron and increased erythroferrone [1] hepcidin and [2] iron absorption via ferroportin. 1. inhibits 2. ferroportin
Some IV iron products have BBW for anaphylaxis
Causes of vitamin B12 deficiency 1. megaloblastic anemia 2. neurological symptoms
Vitamin B12 mechanism of action Cofactor for many essential biochemical reactions, including production of tetrahydrofolate
There is usually [1] ug of vitamin B12 absorbed from the [2] ug in diet 1. 1-5 2. 5-30
Vitamin B12 is stored in the liver
Vitamin B12 is absorbed by active transport across the gut
Folic acid deficiency is commonly caused by inadequate dietary intake
Some meds may cause folic acid deficiency by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase
Folic acid deficiency causes inadequate dietary intake megaloblastic anemia
GM-CSF products Sargramostin
G-CSF products Filgrastim Pegfilgrastim Efbemalenograstim alfa Eflapegrastim-xnst
Sargramostim is a glycoprotein produced in yeast
The primary effect of Sargramostin is to stimulate myelopoiesis
In Sargramostim, the gene for [1] has been modified so there is a substitution of [2] at position 23, resulting in changed glycosylations. 1. GM-CSF 2. leucine
Sargramostim enhances migration, phagocytosis, superoxide production, antibody-dependent cell-mediated toxicity of neutrophils, monocytes, and eosinophils
Sargramostim acts [1] with other hematopoietic growth factors synergistically
Sargramostim is administered SQ/IV
The half-life of Sargramostim is 2-3 hours
The IV infusion for Sargramostim is slow
From Sargramostim, can get a transient decrease in absolute leukocyte count
From Sargramostim, may get dependent [1] increase in [2] counts. 1. biphasic 2. leukocyte
After discontinuing Sargramostim, leukocyte count returns to baseline in 2-10 days
For Sargramostim, at lower doses, effect is primarily neutrophilic
Adverse effects of Sargramostim Bone pain, malaise, flu-like symptoms, fever, diarrhea, dyspnea, and rash. Acute reaction to 1st dose. Capillary leak syndrome.
Serious adverse effects of Sargramostim Transient supraventricular arrhythmia, dyspnea, elevation of SCr, bilirubin, and hepatic enzymes
Filgrastim is recombinant human [1] and is produced by [2] 1. G-CSF 2. E.coli
Unlike natural G-CSF, Filgrastim is not [1] and carries an extra [2] 1. glycosylated 2. N-terminal methionine
The principle action of Filgrastim is to increase neutrophil production
Filgrastim can also reduce inflammation by inhibiting IL-2, tumor necrosis factor, and interferon gamma
Mobilizes primitive hematopoietic stem cells Filgrastim
Dosage forms of Filgrastim SQ or IV (over 30 minutes)
The half-life of filgrastim is 3.5 hours
Adverse effects, prolonged high doses of filgrastim mild to moderate bone pain, local skin reactions, acute cutaneous necrotizing vasculitis
Adverse effects, prolonged use with filgrastim marked granulocytosis and mild to moderate splenomegaly
Clearance by glomerular filtration is minimized therefore longer half-life than filgrastim Pegfilgrastim
Studies suggest neutrophil-mediated clearance may be self-regulating Pegfilgrastim
Efbemalenograstim alfa-vuxw adverse reactions nausea, anemia, and thrombocytopenia
Eflapegrastim-xnst adverse reactions fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, bone pain, headache, pyrexia, anemia, rash, myalgia, arthralgia, and back pain

Kills B cells Rituximab
Primary adverse effects Rituxumab Immunosuppression due to targeting of normal mature B cells Hypersensitivity related to chimeric nature of the monoclonal antibody
IVIG Derived from human plasma; contains a mixture of antibodies
Antibodies in the IVIG saturate Fc receptors on immune cells, preventing them from recognizing auto-antibody-coated platelets and destroying them. IVIG
Derived from human plasma where donors were exposed to the D-antigen. Rho(D) immune globulin (anti-D immune globulin)
After administration of anti-D immune globulin, the anti-D coated RBCs saturate the Fc receptor sites on macrophages in the reticuloendothelial system of the spleen. This results in preferential destruction of those RBCs. This may spare the destruction of antibody-coated platelets. Possible MOA for Rho(D) immune globulin (anti-D immune globulin) for treating ITP
IVIG adverse effects rash, chills, HAs, SOB, hypertension (premedication used to treat)
Rho(D) immune globulin (anti-D immune globulin) adverse effects possible severe vascular hemolysis
