MULTIPLE CHOICE xx
1. What is the name of the receptor sites that are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart,
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
bronchial muscle, and bronchial blood vessels?
xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. Beta 2 receptors xx xx c. Alpha receptors xx
b. Gamma receptors xx d. Beta 1 receptors x x x x xx xx
ANS: C xx
Alpha receptors are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial muscle, and
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
bronchial blood vessels.
xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
2. Which receptor site results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
increased cardiac output?
xx xx xx
a. Beta 1 receptor xx xx c. Alpha receptor xx
b. Beta 2 receptor xx xx d. Delta receptor x x xx
ANS: A xx
Stimulation of the beta-1 receptors results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias,
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
and an increased cardiac output. In administering drugs to the pulmonary system, stimulation of
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
the beta-1 sites is not desired. However, most respiratory pharmacologic agents have some
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
beta-1 stimulatory effect.
xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
3. Stimulation of the beta 2 receptors causes
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. peripheral vasoconstriction and mild bronchoconstriction in the lungs.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
b. tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
c. bronchodilation.
d. peripheral vasodilation, bradycardia, and decreased cardiac output.
xx xx xx xx xx xx
ANS: C xx
Stimulation of the beta-2 receptors in the lungs causes bronchodilation.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
4. Acetylcholine stimulates xx xx
a. the Vagus nerve.
xx xx
b. the adrenergic receptors.
xx xx
c. the sympathetic nervous system.
xx xx xx
d. the cholinergic receptors.
xx xx
ANS: D xx
Acetylcholine stimulates the cholinergic receptors.
xx xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
5. What immunoglobulin antibody sensitizes the mast cell?
xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine
, b. IgE d. x x Prostaglandins
ANS: B xx
The IgE (reagin) antibodies sensitize the mast cell. Repeated exposure to the antigen causes the
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
degranulation of the mast cell.
xx xx xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
6. Which of the following is caused by histamine release from the mast cells?
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
I. Bronchodilation
II. Increased bronchial gland secretion xx xx xx
III. Increased amount of mucus present in the airways xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. I and II only
xx xx c. III only
xx xx
b. II and III only xx xx d. I, II, III
xx x x x x xx xx
ANS: B xx
Histamine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. In addition to its bronchoconstrictive activity, histamine
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
II) increases bronchial gland secretion, causing III) an increase in the amount of mucus
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
present in the airways. Histamine may also have an effect on vascular permeability similar
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
to the effect of- SRS-A.
xx xx xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
7. A sympathomimetic drug would cause
xx xx xx xx xx
a. bronchodilation. c. Histamine release. xx
b. bronchoconstriction. d. Vagus nerve stimulation.
x x xx xx
ANS: A xx
A sympathomimetic drug would cause bronchodilation. Sympathomimetic agents are the drugs most
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
commonly used to reverse bronchospasm.
xx xx xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
8. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system causes
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. vascular permeability. c. bronchodilation.
xx
b. decreased blood pressure. d. bronchoconstriction.
xx xx x x
ANS: C xx
Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes bronchodilation.
xx xx xx xx xx
PTS: x x 1
9. Which of the following would NOT cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction?
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine
b. Beta 1 receptors xx d. Prostaglandins
xx x x
ANS: B xx
Beta-1 receptors would not cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction. Leukotrienes are
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
one of many chemical mediators released by the mast cells. Leukotrienes cause a direct, strong
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
bronchoconstriction. Histamine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. Prostaglandins cause a
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
strong bronchospasm, especially in asthmatic patients.
