BP Regulation: Hormone Control Flashcards
Neuronal control of Bp?
1) regulate CO via SV & HR by changing preload and contractility
2) controls distribution of blood between body and heart
3) re-allocate the CO from ischemic tolerant organs to critical organs
4) regulate EDV (preload)
Hormonal control of BP?
1) catelchoamines
2) Neuronotic Peptides (ANP/BNP)
3) Renin-Angiotensin- Aldosterone system
4) Anti-Diuretic hormone (vasopressin)
What is the sympathy-adrenal system and what does it respond to?
- when SNS fires onto adrenal medulla (on top of both kidneys) and causes releases of catelchoamines
- in response to stress, exercise, hypovolemia, hypoglycemia
How does norepinephrine effect the body?
- preferentially acts on alpha 1 receptors, causes vasoconstriction in skin/gut arterioles
- can work on beta 1 receptors of SA & myocardium to promote increased HR, contractility, and diastolic reaction
how does epinephrine effect the body?
1) preferentially acts on beta 1 in SA & myocardium
2) can work on beta-2 and cause vasodilation in heart & sk muscles, main effect though is metabolic not vasculutre
3) pharm doses can act on alpha 1, causes systemic vasoconstriction to increase SVR & arterial pressure
Ionotropic agent
affects contractility
lusiotropic agent
affects diastolic relaxation (positive increases, negative decreases)
Adrenal gland structure/histology and secretions? (2 main structures)
- located at top of kidneys has outer cortex & central medulla
- medulla- secretes catelchoamines
- zona glomerulosa: secretes aldosterone in response to AT-II
- zona fasciculata: secretes cortisol in response to ACTH from pituitary
How do heart transplants experience increased HR and contractility during exercise w/o innervation from SNS or PNS?
-due to catelchoamine release during exercise from the adrenal medulla
hormone vasoconsctiors?
- NE binds alpha 1, promotes constriction in gut/skin
- AT-II initiates vasoconstriction when released
- ADH-vasopressin
hormonal vasodilators?
-Epi acting on Beta-2 receptor prominent in heart & sk. muscle for fight/flight response
What is the Natriuretic peptide family?
-fam of peptides that promote exertion of Na and urine
-consist of ANP and BNP both in cardiac myocytes
-are cardiopulmonary vol receptors, decrease SNS when activated
-
How are natriuretic peptides activated? What else is activated in this process?
- when cardiac myocytes are over stretched (hypervolumia) ANP/BNP released to tell body have too much blood/pressure
- hypervolumia also stimulates cardiopulmonary vol receptors to decrease SNS
What are renal & vascular effects of ANP/BNP release?
1) inhibit RAA to increase Na and urine excretion
2) causes vasodilation & decreased SVR
3) decrease salt & h20 appetite & ADH secretion
* ANP/BNP= Anti-RAA, do everything to decrease blood volume by decreasing the BP
Natriuresis? Diuresis?
- Naturesis= Na excretion
- Diuresis= urine output
CHF patients and natriuretic peptides?
- have significantly elevated ANP/BNP since have poor kidney profusion due to poor heart functioning
- kidneys take poor profusion as sign of low BP and BV so excrete less fluid to increase preload
- now heart OVERFILLED (hypervolumia), myocytes stretching & releases ANP/BNP
