chapter 20- pharm of volume regulation Flashcards
where are low pressure volume sensors located
atria and pulmonary vasculature
where are high pressure volume sensors located
specialized baroreceptors in the aortic arch, carotid sinus, JG apparatus
what is the result of renin
vasoconstriction and sodium retention
what cells in the cortical thick ascending limb respond to increased luminal NaCl
macula densa cells
what is type A natriuretic peptides released by
atria
what is type B natriuretic peptides released by
ventricles
what is type C natriuretic peptides released by
vascular endothelial cells
what is uroguanylin released by
enterocytes
what is uroguanylin (UGN) released in response to
dietary ingestion of salt
what do ANP and BNP bind with high affinity to
NRP-A
what binds to NRP-B
CNP
what is the role of ADH
constricts the peripheral vasculature and promotes water reabsorption in the renal collecting duct
what do V1 ADH receptors do
stimulate vasoconstriction through Gq-mediated mechanism
where are V1 ADH receptors located
in vascular smooth muscle cells
where are V2 ADH receptors located
collecting duct principal cells
what do V2 ADH receptors do
stimulates water reabsorption by Gs-mediated mechanism
what is the first reabsorptive site in the nephron
proximal tubule
where does paracellular reabsorption of luminal Ca++ and Mg++ ions across cation-selective channels occur
thick ascending limb of loop of hence
what does right heart failure lead initially to
peripheral edema
what does left heart failure lea initially to
pulmonary edema
what is nephrotic syndrome characterized by
proteinuria, edema, hypoalbuminemia, and often hypercholesterolemia
what is the primary cause of nephrotic syndrome
glomerular dysfunction
what does the massive proteinuria in nephrotic syndrome lead to
decreased plasma oncotic pressure
what is the mechanism of action of aliskiren
inhibits renin, leading to decreased conversion of angiotensinogen 2 to angiotensin 1, thereby reducing the substrate for ACE and decreasing arteriolar vasoconstriction, aldosterone synthesis, renal proximal tubule NaCl reabsorption, and ADH release
