PHARMACEUTICAL CHEMISTRY-III (PHARMACEUTICAL ANALYSIS) (Practical)

Paper 11                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Marks 100

 

NOTE:- Practical of the subject shall be designed from time to time on the basis of the above mentioned theoretical topics and availability of the requirements e.g. Determination of the Purity and Composition of the unknown drugs by using at least each of the above techniques. (Note: A minimum of 20 practicals will be conducted).

MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY Complete syllabus

Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH)

    Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH) •     Secreted by Pars inermedia (intermediate lobe) of pituitary •     Occurs in three different forms (α, β, and γ MSH) •     Biosynthesis: – MSH is the cleavage product of a large precursor peptide called pro-opiomelano cortin (POMC) •     Protease enzyme cleave POMC into ACTH and βlipotropin •     ACTH is further cleaved to form MSH   •     Mechanism: •     Act by binding the G-protein coupled melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) on melanocytes – Increases cAMP levels through adenylyl cyclase •     Functions of MSH: •     Stimulate the production and release of melanin from melanocytes in skin & hair (melanogenesis) –   Darkens the skin •     α-MSH acts on hypothalamus –   Suppresses appetite –   Arouse sexually     ...

Adrenocorticotropin

   Adrenocorticotropin •     Also called Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) , corticotropin •     Concerned with the growth and functioning of adrenal cortex •     Chemistry: – Single polypeptide with 39 aminoacids •     First 23 amino acids from N-terminal contains biological activity –   Molecular weight 4500 –   Occurs in two forms •      α-corticotropin •      β-corticotropin •      ACTH is synthesized from a glycoprotein called Proopiomelano cortin (POMC) peptide •      POMC is hydrolyzed by different enzymes to form: –   ACTH –   β-Lipotropin –   β-Endorphins  –   Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH) etc. •     Mechanism of Action •     Ca 2+ ion dependant activation of cAMP – Increased transcription and translation •  ...
