Study Notes
Toxic Effects of Drugs
- Augmented response: a category of toxic effects formed by drugs, usually similar to the therapeutic effects of the drug.
- Pharmacodynamic toxic effects: a type of simple toxic effects related to excess dose or excess sensitivity of the patient, causing functional or pharmacodynamic toxic effects.
Biochemical Toxic Effects
- Biochemical toxic effects: a category of toxic effects related to abnormal levels of routine biochemical tests such as ALT, AST, and creatine kinase.
Cellular Toxic Effects
- Cytotoxic toxic effects: a type of simple toxic effects related to lesion or damage formed in cells or subcellular structures.
- Structural toxic effects: usually dependent on the dose and duration of exposure, as well as the individual's genetic susceptibility, other than the drugs themselves.
Xenobiotic-Induced Toxic Effects
- Idiosyncratic reactions: a subgroup of xenobiotic-induced toxic effects that includes reactions related to genetic differences.
Antioxidant System
- Glutathione reductase: the enzyme that plays a role in transforming oxidized glutathione to reduced glutathione.
- Liver: the organ that experiences the formation of most toxic and oxygen radicals due to the occurrence of most enzymatic reactions.
- N-Acetylcysteine: the substance taken exogenously as an antidote to accelerate the transformation of oxidized glutathione to reduced glutathione.
Cell Damage
- Mitochondrial toxicity: a type of cell damage that involves the disruption of energy metabolism in mitochondria.
Mutagenic Effects
- Ames test: a test used for the examination and scanning of chemical factors in the aspect of mutagenic effects.
- Main mutagenic substances: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, nitrosamines, and alkylating agents.
- Genotoxic carcinogens: a type of carcinogenic factors that affect DNA and RNA.
- Non-genotoxic carcinogens: a term used for substances that affect membrane, cytoplasm, and organelles in terms of carcinogenic factors.
- Mutagenesis: the term for hereditary changes caused by chemical substances or their metabolites.
- Procarcinogens: substances that usually have mutagenic effects and are often procarcinogenic.
