Purine synthesis

Uric acid
GI tract 200 mg/d
• Mostly degraded by colonic bacteria
Urine 600 mg/d
Uric acid

Uric acid (pool)

• Glomerular filtration
• Proximal reabsorption and
secretionUrate transporters:
URAT1 (gene SLC22A12)
GLUT9 (gene SCL2A9)
URAT1 = urate/organic anion exchanger 1GLUT9 = glucose transporter 9
Gout & Hyperuricemia
� Hyperuricemia: uric acid level > 6.8 – 7.0 mg/Dl
� Chronic hyperuricemia � precipitation of MSU crystals
� + Predisposing factors e.g., trauma, surgery
Release of MSU crystals to joint space � inflammation
• Gout: presence of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in joints, bones, and soft tissues
Hyperuricemia
Asymptomatic hyperuricemia(progressive MSU deposition)
Acute gouty arthritis

Case 2
A 48 y/o male was prescribed allopurinol 100 mg QD and colchicine 0.6 mg BID a few days ago because of 3 episodes of acute gout attack in the past year.
Recent Labs: uric acid 9.3 mg/dL SCr 1.1 mg/dL LFT-WNL
He presents to your pharmacy with redness, swelling, and He presents to your pharmacy with redness, swelling, and intense pain in his right foot about 12 hours. He tells you that he never taken colchicine. He states “I didn’t understand why I needed two medications, so I only took allopurinol. Now I wonder if I should even take allopurinol because it isn’t working.”
Which one of the following is the most appropriate intervention for this patient ?
A. Discontinue allopurinol and start and NSAIDs
B. Discontinue allopurinol and start and colchicine
C. Continue allopurinol and start and NSAIDs
D. Continue allopurinol and start and a corticosteroid
LongLong--Term Management of GoutTerm Management of Gout
� Initiate ULT 1 – 2 weeks after the inflammation of the acute attack has resolved

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disorder of diarthrodial joints that is characterized clinically by pain and functional limitations, radiographically by osteophytes and joint space narrowing, and histopathologically by alterations in cartilage and subchondral bone integrity.
OAOA
� Most prevalent form of arthritis
� Highly associated with aging (usually after age 40 - 50)
� Women > Men
� Commonly affected large weight bearing joints
� Exact cause of OA
– remains unclear
Pathophysiology of OA
MMP = metalloproteinasehttp://www.mdconsult.com
Clinical Manifestations� Pain
� [Early stage] exacerbated by activity and relieved by rest
� [Advanced disease] progressively less activity �
occurring at rest and at night
� Joint stiffness � Joint stiffness
� morning – usually resolved within 30 min
� after periods of inactivity Typical hand deformities in OA. Heberden's nodes are seen on the distal interphalangeal joints, and Bouchard's nodes are at the proximal interphalangeal joints.

� Localized � Hands, feet, knees,
hips, spine, shoulder � Generalized (> 3 areas)
