Question | Answer |
What are the 4 roles and functions of histamine? | 1)mediator of allergic reactions and inflammatory processes, 2)affects gastric secretion, 3)neurotransmitter, 4)neuromodulator |

H1 receptors are similar to _____________ receptors. | muscarinic receptors |
Where are H1 receptors located? | presynaptic in the brain; endothelium, smooth muscle cells, nerve endings (brain) |
H1 receptor activation causes: | bronchoconstriction, slowed conduction through the AV node, coronary artery vasoconstriction |
H2 receptors are similar to ______________ receptors. | 5-HT1 receptors |
Where are H2 receptors located? | postsynaptic in the brain; gastric mucosa, cardiac muscle cells, and some immune cells |
H2 receptor activation causes: | CNS stimulation, increased myocardial contractility, increased HR, bronchodilation, increased secretion of H+ ions by gastric parietal cells (dec. pH) |
H3 receptors are similar to _______________ receptors. | H4 |
Where are H3 receptors located? | heart presynaptic postganglionic SNS |
Activation of H3 receptors causes: | dec. NE release, dec. synthesis and release of histamine (negative feedback) |
H4 receptors are similar to _______________ receptors. | H3 |
Where are H4 receptors located? | blood cells, bone marrow (eosinophils, neutrophils) |
What are some cardiac effects caused by histamine on H1 and H2 receptors? | dec. in SBP and DBP (vasodilation), inc. HR, vasodilation (nitric oxide), coronary vasoconstriction, edema, inc. capillary permeability |
What are the direct effects of histamine on the myocardium? This is caused by stim. of which receptor? | inc. contractility, inc. HR (result of H2 receptor stimulation) |
How do H1 and H2 receptors differ in their vasodilatory effects? | H1=rapid onset, transient; H2=slower onset, sustained |
What effect does H1 receptor stim. have on pulmonary system? | bronchoconstriction |
What effect does H2 receptor stim. have on pulmonary system? | bronchodilation |
Asthma patients have ______-______X greater sensitivity when it comes to histamine-induced bronchoconstriction. | 100-1000X |
What effect does histamine have on the GI system? | excessive secretion of gastric fluid with a low pH |
What effect does histamine have on the CNS? Due to which receptor? | CNS stimulation (agitation); H2 receptor |
True or False: Histamine receptor blockers inhibit the release of histamine. | False; it affects ability of histamine to get to receptors |
What are some examples of H1 receptor blockers? | diphenhydramine/Benadryl, dimenhydrinate/Dramamine, meclizine/bonine, promethazine/phenergan |
How do H1 receptor blockers work? | prevent activation of H1 receptors by histamine -- competitive antagonist; may activate muscarinic, 5HT3, alpha receptors |
What are some examples of H2 receptor blockers? | cimetidine/tagament, famotidine/Pepcid, ranitidine/zantac |
How do H2 receptor blockers work? | prevent inc. in intracellular cAMP which would activate the protein pump of the gastric parietal cell to secrete H+ ions |
What is the drug of choice for anaphylaxis treatment? | epinephrine |
How does epi work to treat anaphylaxis? | physiologic antagonist; has opposite effect on smooth muscle, but acts on different receptors |
What drugs can be used to prevent the release of histamine? How do they work? | cromolyn and beta2 agonists; dec. the degranulation of mast cells that occurs when immunologic triggering |
Define anaphylaxis | severe immediate hypersensitive reaction mediated by IgE antibodies formed in response to a foreign antigen |
Define anaphylactic shock. | the cardiovascular collapse that results from anaphylaxis |
Define anaphylactoid reaction. | non IgE mediated reaction that clinically resembles anaphylaxis |
Drug reactions are frequent in anesthesia. Only _____% are true allergic reactions. | 10% |
How does re-exposure to an antigen trigger an anaphylactic reaction? | re-exposure to the antigen causes the bridging of cell-surface IgE receptor molec. which activates enzymes which starts a cascade which leads to an introduction of extracellular Ca+ and mobilization of intracellular Ca+ and thus release of mediators |
What are some examples of mast cell mediators? | histamine, kinins, heparin, leukoagglutinis, leukotrienes, platelet-activating factor, prostaglandins, serotonin |
What are some physiologic manifestations of anaphylaxis? | bronchospasm, tachycardia, hypotension, edema, urticaria, excessive resp/GI secretions, inflammation, abdominal pain, N/V/D |

define urticaria. | skin wheals, pruritic |
Define angioedema. | deep nonpitting cutaneous edema from vasodilation and increased permeability of subq vessels. can involve the airway with compromise |
What are some cardiovascular signs of anaphylaxis? | diaphoresis, hypotension, tachycardia, arrhythmias, dec. SVR, cardiac arrest, pulm. HTN |
Define Grade 1 anaphylaxis. Give epi? | erythema, urticaria w/ or w/o angioedema; epi NOT given |
