MULTIPLE CHOICE v




1. What is the name of the receptor sites that are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


muscle, and bronchial blood vessels?
v v v v v


a. Beta 2 receptors v v c. Alpha receptors v


b. Gamma receptors v d. Beta 1 receptors v v v v




ANS: C v


Alpha receptors are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial muscle, and bronchial
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


blood vessels.
v v




PTS: 1 v




2. Which receptor site results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


cardiac output?
v v


a. Beta 1 receptor v v c. Alpha receptor v


b. Beta 2 receptor v v d. Delta receptor v v




ANS: A v


Stimulation of the beta-1 receptors results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and
v v v v v v v v v v v v v



an increased cardiac output. In administering drugs to the pulmonary system, stimulation of the beta-1
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


sites is not desired. However, most respiratory pharmacologic agents have some beta-1 stimulatory
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


effect.
v




PTS: 1 v




3. Stimulation of the beta 2 receptors causes v v v v v v v


a. peripheral vasoconstriction and mild bronchoconstriction in the lungs.
v v v v v v v


b. tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output.
v v v v v v v v v v


c. bronchodilation.
d. peripheral vasodilation, bradycardia, and decreased cardiac output.
v v v v v v




ANS: C v


Stimulation of the beta-2 receptors in the lungs causes bronchodilation.
v v v v v v v v v




PTS: 1 v




4. Acetylcholine stimulates v v


a. the Vagus nerve.
v v


b. the adrenergic receptors.
v v


c. the sympathetic nervous system.
v v v


d. the cholinergic receptors.
v v




ANS: D v


Acetylcholine stimulates the cholinergic receptors. v v v v




PTS: 1 v




5. What immunoglobulin antibody sensitizes the mast cell?
v v v v v v


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine

, b. IgE d. Prostaglandins
v




ANS: B v


The IgE (reagin) antibodies sensitize the mast cell. Repeated exposure to the antigen causes the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


degranulation of the mast cell.
v v v v v




PTS: 1 v




6. Which of the following is caused by histamine release from the mast cells?
v v v v v v v v v v v v


I. Bronchodilation
II. Increased bronchial gland secretion v v v


III. Increased amount of mucus present in the airways v v v v v v v


a. I and II onlyv v c. III only
v v


b. II and III only v v d. I, II, III
v v v v v




ANS: B v


Histamine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. In addition to its bronchoconstrictive activity, histamine
v v v v v v v v v v v v



II) increases bronchial gland secretion, causing III) an increase in the amount of mucus present
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


in the airways. Histamine may also have an effect on vascular permeability similar to the effect
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


of- SRS-A.
v v




PTS: 1 v




7. A sympathomimetic drug would cause
v v v v v


a. bronchodilation. c. Histamine release. v


b. bronchoconstriction. d. Vagus nerve stimulation.
v v v




ANS: A v


A sympathomimetic drug would cause bronchodilation. Sympathomimetic agents are the drugs most
v v v v v v v v v v v


commonly used to reverse bronchospasm.
v v v v v




PTS: 1 v




8. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system causesv v v v v v v


a. vascular permeability. c. bronchodilation.
v


b. decreased blood pressure. d. bronchoconstriction.
v v v




ANS: C v


Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes bronchodilation.
v v v v v




PTS: 1 v




9. Which of the following would NOT cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction?
v v v v v v v v v v


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine
b. Beta 1 receptors v d. Prostaglandins
v v




ANS: B v


Beta-1 receptors would not cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction. Leukotrienes are one of
v v v v v v v v v v v v


many chemical mediators released by the mast cells. Leukotrienes cause a direct, strong
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


bronchoconstriction. Histamine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. Prostaglandins cause a strong
v v v v v v v v v v v


bronchospasm, especially in asthmatic patients.
