Pheochromcytoma
|
catacholamine secreting tumor in adrenal medulla. Increase CO and TPR = sustained hypertens
|
|
Hyperaldosteronism
(conn's) |
aldosterone secreting adenoma or bilateral adrenal hyperplasia. increased BV, alkalosis, hypokalemia
|
|
cushings
|
Excess productions of glucocorticoids.mineralocorticoid -like effects effect
of adrenergic receptors |
|
Hyperinsulinemia
|
increases SNS activity
stimulates vascular smooth muscle hypertrophy directly or by platelet-derived growth factors |
|
Obesity link (“android” obesity)
|
release of angiotensinogen from adipocytes. Increased BV, increase blood viscosity
|
|
Vasoconstrictors
|
SNS a1, Ang II, ADH, ATP, endothelin (AFFerent)
» decrease RBF and GFR. |
|
Vasodilators
|
(ANP), glucocorticoids, NO,
prostaglandins |
|
Angiotensin II
|
stimulates Na+-H+ exchange across apical membrane
– increases Na+ reabsorption and H+ secretion |
|
SNS activity
|
Sympathetic nerve activity
– stimulates Na+ reabsorption |
|
Parathyroid hormone
|
– inhibits Na+-phosphate cotransport
– increases urinary excretion of phosphate |
|
Osmotic Diuresis
|
increased loss of h20 and
electrolytes in urine. Excess unreabsorbed solute (e.g., mannitol) inhibits osmotic water flow from lumen to basolateral spaces. |
|
OCT
|
cations
|
|
OAT (anions)
|
tertiary active transport
PAH for a-KG,. PAH leaves via a PAH-anion antiporter. |
|
Early Distal Convoluted Tubule
|
NO Na+,K+,2Cl- transporter
There is a thiazide-sensitive (diuretic) NaCl transporter not permeable to water = diluting segment |
|
Late DT and collecting duct
|
Principle cells- resorb Na/sec K
*ADH increases # of channels Intercalated cells- secr H/resorb K |
|
Collecting Tubule
|
water/urea balance
ADH inserts aquaporins = more H20 resorbed |
|
Aldosterone Antagonists
|
Spironolactone
Action: competitive inhibition of aldosterone on collecting tubule: – sodium remains in the tubule and acts as an osmotic diuretic. inhibits K+ secretion Uses: used to supplement other diuretics in treatment of edema to prevent K+ wasting. |
