Infection & Response: Developing New Drugs 💊 GCSE Biology Learning & Revision

All podcast content including episodes, graphics, and podcast descriptions are uploaded and provided directly by Seneca Learning or their podcast platform partner. If you believe someone is using your copyrighted work without your permission, you can follow the process outlined here https://player.fm/legal.
This episode will discuss the development of new drugs.
Modern medicine relies on the development of drugs to combat diseases and alleviate suffering.
The episode highlights three key categories of drugs currently being developed: antibiotics to counter resistant bacteria, antiviral drugs to treat viral infections while minimising harm to the body, and painkillers to manage pain associated with infections.
Antibiotics directly target bacteria, while antivirals aim to inhibit viral replication within cells. Painkillers such as Aspirin, however, do not cure diseases but instead focus on providing symptomatic relief by reducing pain. This makes them essential for improving patient comfort and quality of life during illness.
Drug development is, therefore, a continuous process focused on addressing diverse medical needs.

This process involves introducing a weakened or inactive version of a pathogen, prompting the body to produce antibodies and create memory cells . These memory cells enable a rapid and robust immune response upon future exposure to the same pathogen, preventing illness. When a significant portion of a population is vaccinated, it establishes herd immunity , making it difficult for diseases to spread and thus protecting even those who cannot be vaccinated. This collective immunity arises from the reduced likelihood of contact with an infected individual.

Double-blind clinical trials are designed to eliminate bias by ensuring neither patients nor doctors know who receives the actual drug or a placebo . This method maintains fairness by preventing any preconceived notions from influencing the results . Crucially , all other conditions are kept the same for both groups, ensuring that the drug's effect is the sole variable impacting patient health. The goal is to obtain an objective assessment of the drug's effectiveness , free from subjective interpretations or expectations.

Initial laboratory stages involve preclinical testing on cells, tissues, and live animals to assess toxicity. Animal testing is crucial for understanding a drug's harmful effects before human trials. Clinical trials then assess drug safety in humans , starting with low doses in healthy volunteers and patients. These trials progressively determine the optimum dosage for efficacy. The goal of the multi-stage process is to rigorously evaluate new medications to ensure they are both safe and effective for human use .

Initially, many essential medicines like Digitalis and Aspirin were derived directly from plants, highlighting the importance of botanical resources . A pivotal moment was the discovery of Penicillin, an antibiotic originating from mould , further illustrating nature's contribution. Currently, the pharmaceutical industry primarily synthesises drugs, although these processes may still incorporate plant-derived chemical components .

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this episode, we will discuss Antibiotic Resistance. Certain bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics, rendering these medications ineffective against them. A notable example is MRSA, often termed a "superbug" due to its resistance to multiple drugs. To combat the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, it is crucial for doctors to prescribe antibiotics only when necessary, avoiding their use for minor or viral infections. Furthermore, patients must complete the full course of prescribed antibiotics to ensure all bacteria are eradicated . The unnecessary use of antibiotics contributes to this resistance, highlighting the importance of taking them only when truly required . Ultimately, responsible antibiotic use by both prescribers and patients is essential to prevent the further development of drug-resistant infections.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this episode, we will be discussing antibiotics. Antibiotics are medications specifically designed to treat bacterial infections by disrupting bacterial cell functions, such as cell wall synthesis, thus preventing their multiplication. It is crucial to understand that antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections because viruses possess a different structure and replicate within host cells, unlike bacteria. Due to their targeted nature, doctors prescribe specific antibiotics to combat particular bacterial diseases. The introduction of these drugs has had a profound impact, significantly decreasing mortality rates associated with infectious bacterial illnesses. Therefore, antibiotics are essential for managing bacterial infections , but medical professionals should guide their use for appropriate treatment.
