 Uses & recent advances of anti angina drugs
Antianginal are those drugs who prevent or terminate
attacks of angina pectoris
ï‚´ Angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain due to
coronary heart disease
ï‚´ Angina pectoris is the result of myocardial ischemia
caused by an imbalance between myocardial blood supply
and oxygen demand
ï‚´ It occur when arteries that carry blood to heart become
narrowed due to atherosclerosis or blood clot.
Types of angina -
Classification of antianginal drugs
Nitrates ,B-blockers ,calcium channel blockers and potassium channel
Openers agents are used in the treatment of angina pectoris as a
Antianginal agents.
Nitrates
ï‚´ Organic nitrates are rapidly denitrates in the smooth muscle cells to
release reactive free radical nitric oxide ,dilate veins
ï‚´ Which cause peripheral pooling of blood
Examples-
B-blockers
ï‚´ B- blockers act by reducing work and oxygen consumption and decrease heart rate
ï‚´ All B-blockers are effective in decreasing frequency and severity of attakes
Examples-
1. Atenolol
2. Metoprolol
3. Propranolol and others
Calcium channel blockers
ï‚´ These agents inhibits action potential of calcium ion channel in cardiac muscle
ï‚´ Via trigger release of more calcium ions from intracellular stores and releax
cardiac muscles
ï‚´ Calcium channel bockers cause depolarisation of smooth muscles by inward
moment of calcium ions through voltage sensitive channels.
Examples-
Mechanism of action of antianginal drugs
Organic nitrates are enzymatically denitrated in the smooth muscles cell to release
reactive free radical nitric oxide which activates cytosolic guanylyl cyclase
Increased cGMP which cause dephosphorylation of MLCK
MLCK fails to activate myosin
It fails to cause action of contraction
Consequently relaxation occurs
Intracellular cGmp may also reduce calcium ions entry –contribute to relaxation.
Synthesis of isosorbide dinitrate-
S.A.R OF ANTIANGINAL DRUGS
ï‚´ The potency of organic nitrate for guanylate cyclase activation is mainly
determined by the number of nitrate groups.
ï‚´ So potency of compound is increased with increasing the number of nitrate group.
ï‚´ Due to esterification of free OH group in isosorbide mononitrate increased in
lipophilicity , had no major influence on guanylate cyclase activation.
