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.
