What are signs inflammation?
Itching
Redness
Swelling
Heat
Pain
What is considered acute inflammation?
Long term inflammation that may cause lasting damage over time
Prolonged variable inflammation
Inflammation that tends to be local, more severe and less than 2 weeks in duration
Inflammation that tends to be diffuse
Which of the following is NOT true?
Inflammation is the body's response to injury, pathogen, or necrosis
Inflammation is meant to destroy the invader and repair damage
Inflammation can lead to tissue damage
Inflammation is only classified as chronic
Which of the following are produced through degranulation?
Prostaglandins and Leukotrienes
Serotonin and Proteases
Platelet Activation Factor
Histamine and Heparin
Which of the following are membrane-derived lipid mediators?
Prostaglandins and Leukotrienes
Platelet Activation Factor
Histamine and Serotnin
Proteases and Heparin
True or False. PGs are sensitizing agents that have a synergist role with other inflammatory mediators.
True
False
PGs play a regulatory function in all of the following except
Smooth muscle contraction
Bronchodilation
Platelet activation/aggregation
Kidney function
Heart rate
AA is synthesized from dietary linoleic acid and stored
by esterification to membrane phospholipids
by oxidation of transmembrane proteins
by esterification to cyclooxygenase
by reduction of amino acids
Which enzyme frees arachidonic acid?
CYP2E1
Phospholipase A2
Cyclooxygenase
Lipoxygenase
Select all that apply. Cyclooxygenase
contains heme
is not membrane bound
is involved in prostacyclin, thromboxane and prostaglandin synthesis
has 3 major isozymes
Which enzyme is responsible for "housekeeping" ?
COX-1
COX-2
LOX
COX-2 is responsible for
renal adaptation to stress
spongy bone hemostasis
ovulation and uterine contractions
pain, fever, and inflammation
platelet function
Which prostaglandins (PGs) mediate inflammation?
E
I
D
F
Prostaglandins
are 20 carbon fatty acids
are 16 carbon fatty acids
have a 15-hydroxyl group
have a cyclopentane ring
have 17-hydroxyl group
Thromboxane and prostacyclin are
competitive antagonists
physiological antagonists
uncompetitive antagonist
physiological agonists
Thromboxane
is synthesized from PGH2 and is associated with vasoconstriction and platelet adhesion/aggregation
is synthesized from PGH2 and is associated with vasodilation and inhibits platelet aggregation
Prostacyclin
synthesized from PGH2
vascular endothelium
vasodilation
inhibits platelet aggregation
vasoconstriction
Prostaglandin receptors
bind mostly to multiple GPCRs with varied effects
bind mostly to a specific GPCR with a specific effect
PGE2 is involved in
pain
inflammation
fever
PGI2 is involved in
pain
inflammation
fever
PGE2 is synthesized in vasculature of hypothalamus in response to
(a)
NSAIDs are commonly used for
inflammation, pain and fever
cough and cold
allergies
digestive aids
True or False. ALL NSAIDs act as reversible, competitive COX inhibitors.
True
False
True or False. NSAIDs block the hydrophilic channel where arachidonic acid normally binds.
True.
False.
Boxed warnings for NSAIDs apply to
aspirin
ketorolac
ibuprofen
acetaminophen
meloxicam
NSAID boxed warnings
Serious gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcerations, and perforation
Serious cardiovascular thrombotic events
Serious skin reactions
Increased risk of tendon rupture
Fluid retention/edema, chronic toxicity, dizziness, rash and hypersensitivity are examples of
NSAID general adverse reactions
NSAID boxed warnings
Which enzyme is the major enzyme in the GIT?
COX-1
COX-2
CYPE21
LOX
Which PG maintains ductus arteriosus in a fetus?
PGI2
PGE2
PGE2 acts on tubules which decreases Na+ reabsorption and increase urinary output.
True
False
Which of the following is not an affect of PGE2 on glomeruli?
decreased Na+ reabsorption
increased arteriole dilation
increased renal perfusion
increased filtration
increased urinary output
NSAIDs should be avoided in pregnancy.
True
False
NSAID hypersensitivity can lead to
rhinitis
urticaria
bronchoconstriction
anaphylaxis
