Q

Corticosteroids MOA

A

In mast cells: inhibit phospholipase A2 which decreases leukotriene and prostaglandin synthesis
Inhibit Th2 cells: decrease IL-4 and IL-5 which decrease mast cell and eosinophils

Q

Anti-Ige Monoclonal antibody

A

Bind to IgE antibodies so they can’t stimulate FceR1 receptors and activate mast cells which prevents inflammatory mediator production

Q

B2 Agonists MOA

A

Bind to beta2 receptors and activates adenylyl cyclase to increase cAMP production and relax smooth muscle
Can stimulate receptors on mast cells and decrease the release of inflammatory mediators

Q

Methyxantines MOA

A

Enter smooth muscle in respiratory tract and inhibits PDE which increase cAMP in cell and causes smooth muscle relaxation. Blocks adenosine receptors through the body
