15 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Constricts afferent & efferent arterioles
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Endothelin
Constricts efferent arteriole
Angiotensin II
Dilates afferent & efferent arterioles
Decreased NaCl to the macula densa
Endothelial-derived NO
Prostaglandins
Bradykinin
PTH's effect on Vit. D
Activates Vit. D to increase intestinal Ca++ absorption
What accumulates in the serum in Addison's Disease?
Adrenal malfunction -> Aldosterone deficiency -> K+ accumulation
Increases in the urine in Addison's Disease
Na+
Effect of NSAIDs on GFR
Inhibit synthesis of prostaglandins -> prevents arteriole dilation -> cannot dampen the effects of the constrictors
What causes the increase in GFR with high-protein diet and increased blood glucose?
When amino acids and glucose are absorbed in the PCT they drag Na+ across -> decrease NaCl reaching the macula densa -> decrease afferent arteriole resistance.
Effect of PCT damage on arteriole tone
Increases amount of NaCl reaching the macula densa -> constriction to prevent volume depletion
Accumulates in the body in Conn's Syndrome
Adrenal Tumor -> increased aldosterone -> Na+ retention
Increases in the urine in Conn's Syndrome
K+
Release triggered by increased atrial filling
Atrial natriuretic peptide
Activation triggered by pressure receptors in the aorta and carotid sinuses
Sympathetic Nervous System
Effect of Atrial natriuretic peptide
Increased Na+ excretion
Effect of sympathetic nervous system on Na+
Increased Na+ retention
