Autacoids ผศ. พญ. มาลียา มโนรถ
2
Autacoids n Autos = self n Akos = medicinal agent [are circulating or locally acting hormone- like substances which originate from diffuse tissues]
3
Two main function 1. Moderate local circulation 2. Influence the process of inflammation
4
Major classes 1. Endogenous amines : – histamine, serotonin 2. Polypeptides : – angiotensin, kinins 3. Lipid-derived autacoids : – prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxane
5
Lipid-derived autacoid 1. Eicosanoids Polyunsaturated fatty acid (Arachidonic acid) – Prostaglandins (PG) – Prostacycline (PGI) – Thromboxane (TXA) – Leukotrienes (LT)
6
Lipid-derived autacoid 2. Modified phospholipids – Platelet-activating factor (PAF) – Potent vasodilator – Potent stimulator of platelet aggregation n Circulating leukocyte n Platelets n Endothelial cells
7
Origin and synthesis PGs Cell membrane phospholipid Phospholipase Arachidonic acid Lipoxygenase pathway Cyclooxygenase pathway
8
Lipoxygenase pathway Phospholipids Arachidonic acid 12-lipoxygenase 5-lipoxygenase 5-HETE Leukotrienes (LT) LTA 4, LTB 4, LTC 4, LTD 4 12-HETE Leukostatic agent
9
HETE = Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid Leukotriene พบที่ leukocyte conjugate with triene SRS-A is a mixture of peptide leukotriene (LTC 4, LTD 4, LTE 4 )
12
Leukotrienes n Biosynthesis take place chiefly in leukocytes n Pharmacologic effects – LTC 4, LTD 4, LTE 4 (SRS-A) Potent vasoconstrictor Potent bronchoconstrictor – ญ permeability of postcapillary venules – ญ mucus secretion
13
Leukotrienes n LTB 4 – Chemotactic & chemokinetic – Leukocytes adhere the vascular endothelium & to extravasate
14
Cyclooxygenase pathway Phospholipids Arachidonic acid Cyclooxygenase (COX-1; COX- 2) PGG PGH PGI (Prostacycline) TXA (Thromboxane) PGDPGEPGF (Prostaglandins)
15
Prostaglandins n Kurzrok & Lieb 1930 semen : uterus n Goldblatt 1933 and Von Euler 1934 – semen : vascular smooth muscle contraction ฌ Prostaglandin n Bergstorm & Sjovall : PGE 1, PGF 1 n Karim 1986 : Oxytocic properties PGE 2, PGF 2

18
Inactive end product Metabolism n Lung, kidney, liver n PGI 2 : 6 keto-PGF 1 n TXA 2 : TXB 2 n PGF : 15- 13,14-dihydro PGF 2
19
Clinical Uses n 1. CVS : dilate – PGI : 1 o, 2 o pulmonary hypertension – PGE1 : maintain patency of ductus arteriosus n 2. GI : inhibit – PGE : cytoprotection (prevention of NSAIDs induced gastric ulcer )
20
Clinical Uses n 3. Uterus : contract – PGE, PGF : abortion, postpartum hemorrhage, facilitation of labor n 4. Platelets : inhibit – PGI & analog : in place of heparin during dialysis – PGI & PGE : improving storage of blood platelets for therapeutic transfusion
