1. What is the name of the receptor sites that are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial muscle, and bronchial blood vessels? a. Beta 2 receptors c. Alpha receptors b. Gamma receptors d. Beta 1 receptors ANS: C Alpha receptors are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial muscle, and bronchial blood vessels. PTS: 1 2. Which receptor site results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output? a. Beta 1 receptor c. Alpha receptor b. Beta 2 receptor d. Delta receptor ANS: A Stimulation of the beta-1 receptors results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output. In administering drugs to the pulmonary system, stimulation of the beta-1 sites is not desired. However, most respiratory pharmacologic agents have some beta-1 stimulatory effect. PTS: 1 3. Stimulation of the beta 2 receptors causes a. peripheral vasoconstriction and mild bronchoconstriction in the lungs. b. tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output. c. bronchodilation. d. peripheral vasodilation, bradycardia, and decreased cardiac output. ANS: C Stimulation of the beta-2 receptors in the lungs causes bronchodilation.

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


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine

, b. IgE d. Prostaglandins
r




ANS: B r


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

PTS: 1 r




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


I. Bronchodilation

a. I and II only r c. III only
r r r


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




ANS: B r


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



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


the airways. Histamine may also have an effect on vascular permeability similar to the effect of- SRS-A.

7. A sympathomimetic drug would cause
r r r r r


a. bronchodilation. c. Histamine release. r


b. bronchoconstriction. d. Vagus nerve stimulation.
r r r




ANS: A r


A sympathomimetic drug would cause bronchodilation. Sympathomimetic agents are the drugs most commonly us
r r r r r r r r r r r r r


ed to reverse bronchospasm.

PTS: 1 r




8. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system causes r r r r r r r


a. vascular permeability. c. bronchodilation. r


b. decreased blood pressure. d. bronchoconstriction. r r r

Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes bronchodilation. r r r r r

r r r r r r r r r r


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




ANS: B r


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


emical mediators released by the mast cells. Leukotrienes cause a direct, strong bronchoconstriction. Hista

mine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. Prostaglandins cause a strong bronchospasm, especially in asthm

atic patients. r
