Q1.
In a cell exposed to sustained hypoxia, which adaptive mechanism is most likely to be
triggered by increased levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1)?


A. Increased expression of glycolytic B. Upregulation of cytochrome c oxidase
enzymes and glucose transporters activity in mitochondria

C. Enhanced fatty acid oxidation for ATP D. Suppression of vascular endothelial
production growth factor (VEGF) secretion
Correct: A - Increased expression of glycolytic enzymes and glucose transporters


Rationale:HIF-1± is a master regulator of the adaptive response to hypoxia. It upregulates
genes encoding glycolytic enzymes and glucose transporters (e.g., GLUT1) to maintain ATP
production anaerobically. It also increases VEGF to promote angiogenesis. Option B is
incorrect because cytochrome c oxidase is part of oxidative phosphorylation, which is
impaired in hypoxia. Option C is incorrect because fatty acid oxidation requires oxygen.
Option D is the opposite of the actual effect.

Q2.
A researcher is studying a novel anti-inflammatory drug that selectively inhibits the
NLRP3 inflammasome. Which downstream effect is most directly expected?


A. Decreased production of IL-1 and IL-18 B. Increased activation of caspase-8

C. Enhanced release of tumor necrosis D. Reduced expression of major
factor-alpha (TNF-) histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II
Correct: A - Decreased production of IL-1 and IL-18


Rationale:The NLRP3 inflammasome activates caspase-1, which cleaves pro-IL-1² and
pro-IL-18 into their active forms. Inhibiting it reduces these cytokines. TNF- is primarily
produced via NF-B and is not directly regulated by the inflammasome. Caspase-8 is involved
in extrinsic apoptosis and is not the target. MHC class II expression is not directly linked to
the inflammasome.

Q3.
In the setting of massive pulmonary embolism, which hemodynamic change is most likely
to precipitate right ventricular failure?


A. Decreased pulmonary vascular B. Acute increase in right ventricular
resistance leading to increased left afterload and decreased left ventricular
ventricular preload preload

C. Systemic vasodilation causing reflex D. Increased pulmonary capillary wedge
tachycardia and increased cardiac output pressure due to left ventricular dysfunction
Correct: B - Acute increase in right ventricular afterload and decreased left ventricular
preload


Rationale:A massive pulmonary embolism acutely increases pulmonary vascular resistance,
raising right ventricular afterload. This leads to RV dilation and failure, and because the RV
cannot generate enough pressure, left ventricular preload decreases, causing reduced
cardiac output. Option A is the opposite. Option C describes systemic vasodilation, which is
not a direct effect. Option D is associated with left heart failure, not acute PE.

Q4.
A tumor suppressor gene is found to have a gain-of-function mutation in its promoter that
leads to hypermethylation of a tumor suppressor's coding region. Which net effect is most
consistent with this alteration?


A. Increased expression of the tumor B. Silencing of the tumor suppressor gene
suppressor leading to cell cycle arrest and promotion of cell proliferation

C. Activation of DNA repair mechanisms D. Enhanced apoptosis of malignant cells
that reduce mutation accumulation through p53 activation
Correct: B - Silencing of the tumor suppressor gene and promotion of cell proliferation


Rationale:Hypermethylation of a tumor suppressor gene promoter typically leads to gene
silencing, reducing the protein's function and promoting uncontrolled cell proliferation. This is
an epigenetic mechanism of tumorigenesis. Options A, C, and D describe protective effects
that would not be expected from silencing a tumor suppressor.

Q5.
A patient with chronic heart failure has elevated levels of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP).
Which compensatory mechanism is most directly counteracted by ANP?


A. Sympathetic nervous system overactivity B. Increased synthesis of erythropoietin in
and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system response to renal hypoxia
(RAAS) activation
