Cardiopulmonary And Renal Autonomics Flashcards
Varicosities are what
Synapse between post-ganglionic N and organ/target
Sympathetic: release NE
Parasympathetic : release ACH ——> Muscarinic ach receptors
Pre and post ganglionic cell is what type
ACH ——> nicotinic receptors
CN X leaves CNS and synapses on SA node of heart , what is the receptor
ACH——> Muscarinic cholinergic R
T1-T6 leaves CNS and synapses on SA node of heart , what is the receptor
Alpha 1 and Beta 1 adrenergic R
Alpha 1 do what
Contraction of SM
* especially vasoconstriction
+ increase CA influx into SM
Brain that control ANS
Hypothalamus (Paraventricular nucleus, medullary areas—> Hypothalamus)
Most important part of kidney
The Blood Supply
Functional unit of kidney
Nephron
- filter blood
- get rid of waste
Glomerulus function
Provide raw material for making urine
Filters plasma
Glomerulus gets blood from
Afferent arteriole ——> glomerular capillaries (filtration)—> efferent arterioles (controls rate)——> tubules
What controls the rate of glomerular filtration
The efferent arteriole
Where does fluid (blood) go after filtration in glomerulus (removing wastes)
To the proximal tubule
Proximal convoluted tubule function
REABSORB back into blood (what we need that was filtered earlier, glucose….)
——> PERITUBULAR CAPILLARIES *
What do the peritubular capillaries come from
Efferent arterioles
Loop of Henley gets fluid form and function
From proximal tubule CONCENTRATE URINE - Reabsorb water - works on interstitial fluid* (prevent dehydration) - blood here is vasa recta*
