One of them is that arterial thrombi are made primarily of these cells (this has treatment implications).   tPA is often given as a 'clot buster.' It cleaves a precursor to produce what molecule?   What enzyme(s) does aspirin inhibit?   What platelet-activating molecule does asprin prevent the synthesis of?   Name another drug other than aspirin that prevents platelet activation by a different mechanism   The drug you just named prevents adenosine uptake and also inhibits another enzyme, Name that enzyme.   Name one of two drugs that inhibit platelet aggregation by antagonizing the P2T receptor.   Name a monoclonal antibody (ends in -mab) that inhibits GPIIb/IIa receptor, inhibiting platelet aggregation.   Monoclonal antibodies suck in one way - they can only be adminstered this way.   Inhibitors of platelet aggregation are particularly useful after what event?   Name a drug that blocks the GPIIb/IIIa receptor that is not an antibody   What does heparin accelerate the inactivation of?   Name a formulation of heparin (or a synthetic) that accelerates inactivation of factor Xa.   Heparin and its derivatives require this molecule as a suicide substrate to work.   Name a drug that, like a leech, prevents the binding of fibrinogen to thrombin.   This side effect of heparin makes the drugs you just named necessary alternatives in some patients.   Name a competitive inhibitor of thrombin.   If tPA is effective at cleaving plasminogen at the site of a clot, name a drug that cleaves it in the circulation   tPA + SK also cleaves what molecule that comprises the clot?   Estrogen, thyroid hormone, and what other hormone are required for maximal LDL receptor expression?   What type of cell expresses scavenger receptors that recognize LDL particles with oxidized lipid?   Familial hyperchylomicronemia results from a lack of this enzyme that is activated by ApoCII.   Which type of cholesterol particle is protective against heart disease when elevated?   Name a drug that reduces cholesterol by binding to bile acids and preventing their recirculation (but that can also raise triglycerides!).   Name a drug that inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, a critical enzyme for the biosynthesis of cholesterol.   The side effects of statins include drug interactions, liver dysfunction, and damage to this type of cell.   Name a drug that blocks intestinal absorption of cholesterol   Name a fibrate, a drug that activates PPAR-gamma to reduce trigylceride and LDL levels.   Name a drug that is more useful for raising HDL than for lowering LDL, though it does a little of that, too.   Below what number is the goal LDL level for a patient with coronary heart disease?   Above what value are at least dietary and lifestyle changes recommended for a patient with no other risk factors for heart disease?

HTN/CHF In order to be a good osmotic diuretic, a substance should be nontoxic, pharmacologically and metabolically inert, and filtered, but not what?   Name an osmotic diuretic   Why isn't mannitol prescribed for outpatients? In other words, how is it delivered?   Mannitol can relieve cerebral edema or angle closure glaucoma because it doesn't enter what organs?   Thiazide Diuretics work in this part of the renal tubule.   Name a thiazide diuretic   Chlorthalidone works better than hydrochlorothiazide because it has a longer ____.   Thiazide diruetics reduce blood pressure by opening a channel in vascular smooth muscle that lets this ion through   ARBs and ACE inhibitors reduce aldosterone stimulation, preventing the side effect most diuretics have of reducing levels of this ion.   Name the prototypical loop diuretic   Name the ion channel blocked by the drug you just named   Name a molecule that is upregulated in endothelial cells by furosemide, leading to a drop in blood pressure.   Without the NKCC2 cotransporter, will the osmolarity of urine be greater than, less than, or the same as that of plasma?   Name a potassium-sparing diuretic.   What systolic pressure is the target for an individual with no comorbid conditions?   What systolic pressure is the target for an individual with diabetes or renal disease?   At what systolic pressure is a person said to have Stage 2 hypertension and need to be started on 2 drugs?   Name a condition for which a thiazide diuretic would not be your first choice for treating hypertension.   Name a beta-blocker that does nothing but antagonize beta1 receptors (and inhibit cardiac remodeling).   Name the beta-blocker that blocks EVERYTHING (Beta1, Beta2, Alpha1) and has anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic effects.   Name the beta-blocker that is Beta1 selective but also increases NO availability.   Name the prototypical ACE inhibitor   Name the prototypical ARB   What does the ACE in ACE inhibitor stand for?   What side effect of ACE inhibitors most frequently causes them to need to switch to an ARB?   What class of drugs that can be used to treat hypertension relax the lower esophageal sphincter and can exacerbate GERD?   What class of second-line hypertension drugs have favorable effects on lipid profiles for unknown reasons?   Name a drug from the class you just named   Name a drug that increases inotropy by inhibiting the Na/K ATPase, thereby increasing availability of calcium for muscle contraction.   Traditionally, sCHF was treated by addressing inotropy, preload, and afterload. Inotropy was treated with digoxin, afterload with a vasodilator. What was used to reduce preload?   Digoxin also increases activity of the vagus nerve and slows conduction through what structure to treat arrhythmias?   A cardioprotective response to excess catecholamine signaling in CHF can include what receptors coupling to G proteins with Gi subunits?   Digoxin can cause tachyarrhythmias if a patient taking the drug has low levels of what ion?   True or false - Beta-blockers have use in both systolic and diastolic heart failure?   In CHF, calcium channel blockers are used in which kind of heart failure (systolic or diastolic)?   The calcium channel blockers that should be used for CHF include those that affect cardiac calcium channels. Name one.   Isosorbide dinitrate and hydralazine work together - isosorbide dinitrate is a source of this molecule and hydralazine inhibits ROS production, which would inactivate it.   The combination of isosorbide dinitrate and hydralazine is approved by the FDA for what population?   What drug is used in acute decompensated CHF for its ability to vasodilate by increaing cGMP and suppress the renin-angiotensin system?   In addition to oxygen, name two drugs you would want to use in acute decompensated CHF (you just named one)
