CARDIAC GLYCOSIDES These are an important class of naturally occurring drugs
whose actions include both beneficial and toxic effects on the heart.
Plant glycosides with specific action on heart.
Historical use: to assasinate people, arrow poisons
Historical sources: South American toad skins, African plant extracts
Modern use: to treat congestive heart failure (dropsy). for treatment of atrial fibrillation and flutter. aglycone structure important for activity.

Cardio-active Glycosides
•Group of steroidal glycosides act as cardiotonic agent.
•They increase tone, excitability and contractility of cardiac muscles.
General properties of Cardiac Glycosides : Amorphous powder Bitter taste
Solubility in H2OInsolubility in Organic solventsVery toxic compounds Odorless

PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF CARDIAC GLYCOSIDES: Solubility:
Glycosides are soluble in water and alcohols. Increase number of sugars increase water solubility. Aglycones soluble in CHCl3 and EtOAc.
Stability: Acid hydrolysis:
Split sugars from the aglycone first. Enzymatic hydrolysis:
Split sugars stepwise starting from the terminal sugar. Elevated temperature:
Cause dehydration by removal of C-14 OH group to give inactive anhydro-form

CARDIO-ACTIVE GLYCOSIDES A small group of plant glycosides act
directly on the heart muscle. These include (but are not limited to cardiac
glycosides or cardenolides) Cardenolides are steroidal glycosides
exert a slowing and strengthening effect on the failing cardiac muscle.

Nomenclature : The cardiac glycosides occur mainly in plants from which the names have been derived.
Digitalis purpurea, Digitalis lanata, Strophanthus kombe are the major sources of the
cardiac glycosides.
Aglycone moiety: The term 'genin' at the end refers to only the aglycone portion (without the sugar). The aglycone portion of cardiac glycosides is more important than the glycone portion.
Aglycone part has steroidal nucleus
cyclopentanoperhudrophenanthrene

11
Sugar moiety(glycone) :
The glycosides usually contain 3 to 4 sugars attached at C-3 OH.The sugars most commonly used include L-rhamnose, D-glucose, D-digitoxose, D-digitalose, D-digginose. Beside Glucose and Rhamnose they usually contain deoxysugars.These sugars predominantly exist in the cardiac glycosides in the β-conformation.
Digitoxose Digitose

STRUCTURE: These are composed of two structural features :
the sugar (glycone) moiety and the non-sugar (aglycone - steroid) moieties.

The R group at the 17-position defines the class of cardiac glycoside.
Two classes have been observed in Nature:1. cardenolides and 2. bufadienolides .
The cardenolides have an unsaturated butyrolactone ring While the bufadienolides have an a-pyrone ring.

Structural actiity and relationship :-
1) The presence of OH group in C-14 position makes the glycoside very active and gives rapid action in the body, but if we change it to (H+) group the drug will be inactive or less active.
2) The presence of Alpha & Beta unsaturated lactone ring increases the activity of Cardiac Glycosides, but if we make it saturated the Cardiac glycosides will lose its activity.
3) The ring junctions Cis, Trans, Cis make the nucleus very stable so more active.
4) The sugar part increases absorption and distribution of Cardiac glycoside in the body.
Sugar part : Glucose, Rhamnose, Cymarose, Digitoxose

DIGITALIS PURPUREA – PURPLE FOXGLOVE
Digitalis consists of the dried leaves of Digitalis purpurea.
It is required to contain at least 0.3% of total cardinolides calculated as digitoxin.
Parts Used: Leaves
Habitat: Native to Western Europe. Although the plant is cultivated, wild plants are thought to be superior.

Biochemical Mechanism of Action:
The mechanism whereby cardiac glycosides cause a positive inotropic effect.
Several mechanisms have been proposed.
but the most widely accepted involves the ability of cardiac glycosides to inhibit the membrane bound Na+-K+-ATPase pump responsible for Na+-K+ exchange.
The process of membrane depolarization / repolarization is controlled by the movement of three cations, Na+, Ca+2, and K+, in and out of the cell.

MEDICINAL IMPORTANCE:
They are Cardiotonics used to treat Congestive heart failure(CHF).
They increase force of contraction of cardiac muscles without increase oxygen consumption.
Increase cardiac output.
The diastolic phse last longer so decrease heart rate.
Have diuretic effect due to increase amount of blood passing through the kidney.
