what is endocrine htn seen in
insulin resistance, mc excess, cs, pheo, hyper/hypothyroid, hyperparathryoid and acromegala
eval htn
getn plasma renin, and serum aldo with urine na
if individuals have nl kidneys they
do not have htn
renal pressure-natriuresis relationship
any increase in salt relesed from gi tract causes exponential increase in renal output to ensure nl arterial pressure is maintained
if chronic htn the problem is
chronic increases in blood volue based on press= vol/ compliance
what increases high last
rass, mc's, av, sns
htn therapy
salt restriction, b blockers, vaso veno blockers
antihypertensive fx of the kidney
increase anp, decrease avp, (lower volume) decrease raas, decerase sympathetics
beta blockers htn
lower hr and sv lowerirng q which lowers Va
vaso-veno bloacker
increase complianse and lower arteral resistant increasing q out
endocrine htn syptoms
primary aldosteronism, cushings, CAH 17 and 11, apparentminearlocorticoid excess, GC remediable, pseudohyperaldosteronism (liddle) pheo, hyperpara, hyperthryoid, hypothyroid, acromegaly
agiontensin II actson on
adrenal cortex (aldo) kidney, intestine, central nervous, peripheral nervous, vascular smooth mucle (constricts) hear (inceas co), + growth factors
aldo action on distal nephron
synergizes with effects of angiotensin, binds MR, migrates to nucleus where it induces transcription of mRNA, increases sodium potasium ATPASE protein and activity at basolateral membranes incraseing mitochondrial atp formation and increasing sodium and potassium channels at the luminal membrane
hyperalodsteronism
most common adenoma that produces aldosterone si most common, 11B and 17 B
gc remediable
dna crossover mutation reuslt in chimeric gnee in which aldosterone prodcution is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormeon (ACTH), resulting in increase in aldosterone
liddle syndrome
excess epithelail sodium channel activity… causes low aldo (low renin and aldo) often with hypokalemia by absorbing na…
mutation in liddle
b or gamma subunit.. The channel has 3 subunity a b or y and this is in b or y
specific problem in liddle
prolien rich domains in the carboyl terminal region of b or y
glycyrrhizing acid
blocks 11 b ohsd
carbenoxolone
blocks 11 b oshd
tx mineralocorticoid excess
sprionolactione (inhibits MR and is able to block excessive action of cortisol on the MR receptor)
hemodynamic abnormality underlying essential hypertension
peripheral vascular resistance… complex array of systemic and locally produced hormoens and factors
RAS in essential hypertension?
yes
is renin profiling used for EH?
no longer used to be that it was if high renin then you had a vasocnstrictor mechanism
low renin htn and ras drugs
responds
what activates mc receptors
aldo, doc and cortisol
what dose MC induse
SGK
SGK action
disengages Nedd 4 from Na chanels… decreasesdecredation
aldo effects on distal tuble
increase na cl cotransporter and na k atpase
aldo effects on collecting tuble
increase ENaCs and Na-K ATPase
why hypokalemia in high aldo levels
Na K atpase
in high aldo why alkalosis
K-H exchanger in intercalated cells tries to regain K
lorsartan
ANGII agonist
what blocks aldo effects
Losartan and spronolaction (aldo antaogist)
primary hyperaldoseteronism is usually due to
aldrenal aldo prodcuineg adenoma #2 is bilateral micronodular hyperplasia
rare cuases of hyperaldosteronism
familial (gc remdiable) or uniltareral hyperplasia
unilaterl hyperaldoserism txsurgical while bilateral is medical tell on adrenal vein catherterization
do you always have hypokalemia in hyperaldosteronism
no only 50%
plasma reninin in hyperaldosteronism
lower hr and sv lowerirng q which lowers Va
cv effects of aldo
increased expressoin of at1r in cardiac myocites (+ino) and vascular smooth muclse cells (vasoconsticiton) both of with increase HTN
when aldo is high do you get edema?
no.. Escape phenomenon; spontaneious diuresis occurs in response to continued high aldo exposure so no fluid is retained
HTN in high GC's due to
doc/cortisol overwhelms 11BHSD and thus they can chronically stim MCR and increase Na retetion---> HTN
GC other HTN effects
induction of PMNT (increase epi) and vasoconstricition by inhibition of COMT and decreased expression of Na-Ca exchanger
HTN in pheo's
paroxysmal… due to pulsatile natuer of catecholamine release from tumor
labs in pheo
hyperglycemia and triglyceriedes since catecholamines make fuels readily available
case 3 and 4
clues to adrenal insufficenty
hypotension (in acute illness or prolonged with DA dependence) prior GC TX, hyponatremia (vol status), eosinophilia and decreased appetite / fatigue
how to asses adrenal insufficency
acth stim, plasma acth if low; acth stim, metyrapone if normal and 11 deoxycortisol\
metyrapone and elevated acth following
no 2ary since it inhibits cyp11 b1
metyrapone and nl acth
or if acth low afer metyrapone then faulty hpa axis
if cortisol gives normal response after acth stim
metyrapone
if cortisole gives low response after acth stim test
suggests adrenocortical insufficiency; msut look at plasma acth if elevated 1ary, if nl/lwo 2ndary
rigampin
inhibits dna dependet rn polymerase in bacteria--> induces P450 to accelearate cortisol breakdown
ketoconazole
inhibits CYP cscc and tus lowers cortisol synthesis
what to r/o is hirsuitism
cs, cah, androgen secreting neoplasm, polycystic ovary syndrome,
if hirsutism is idiopathic what do you expect
no irregular menses
dhea-s
lab workup for hirsuitism… tells you how much androgen is coming from adrenals since dhea is only sulfated in adrenals
cortrosyn
(acth stim test)if you supect CAH in hirsuitism… 17-00H-progesterone and cortisol should be high
tx hirsutism
GC's enough to suprress androgen release but not too much to avoid bad side effects or oral contraceptives (combats androgen and decrease androgen release from ovaries
enzymes in CAH
P450scc, 17 alpha, B, 21 hydroxylase, 11 hydroxylase, 3 B HSD, 17, 20 lysase
most virulizing CAH
21 and 11 hydroxylase secondary to high testosterone/DHT
minimal virulization in CAH
3B HSD second to DHEA's weak androgen ction
do 17,20 lysase, and 17 alpha hydroxylase cause virulizing
no feminization in men
elevated in21 hydroxylase
17 hyrdoxy progesterone and androsterodine
21 hydroxylase deficnecy and genital developemnt
infant firls have ambiguidity
cortisol in 21 hydoxlase
low in classic sufficinet in non - classic, why non-classic has late onset
urogenital sinus
high androgens before 12 week
clitoromegally
after 12 weeks high androgens (labia may fuse and some degree of rugation
toral disruption in male infants

b/o acne in 5y/o
non classic 21
fals positives for 17-oh progestorn
in low birth weight babies or sample drawn < 24hrs after birth
false negs in 17-OH prog
measuing 7-oH will miss 3B HSD and CYP17
prader scale
I like F, III ambigious, V most like M
heel stick levels for 17 OH
<50 nromal >125 probable
what comes after >125 17OH
serum chemistries and renin
tx 21 CAH
ABC's; dextrose as necessary for hypoglycemia; abx; stress hydrocorsone replacemne is 75mg/m2 or 4g/kr IV: miantenance hyrdocortisone 15mg/m2 3X per day; fludrocortisone BID, education of risk of adrenal ciris; stress steroids in times of ferever vomiting and truam/surger
