What do carbonic anhydrase inhibitors treat?
Edema
Epilepsy
Glaucoma
How do CAIs work for gluacoma?
Control fluid secretion
How do CAIs work for edema?
Promotion of diuresis in instances of abnormal fluid retention
Carbonic anhydrase diuretic effect is due to
Action in the kidney on reversible reaction involving hydration of carbon dioxide and dehydration of carbonic acid
Net result of reversible reaction in kidneys
Loss of HCO3 ion, which carries out Na+, water, and K+
Alkalinization of urine and promotion of diuresis
What does furosemide (FUR) treat?
Hypertension
Edema
Congestive Heart Failure
Liver Cirrhosis
Renal Disease
Furosemide MOA
Inhibits absorption of Na+ + Cl- in PCTs, DCTs, and loop of Henle. Action on DCT is independent of inhibitory effect on CA and aldosterone
Where is furosemide metabolized?
Kidneys and liver
Bound to plasma proteins, albumin
What are the major metabolites of furosemide?
FUR-glucuronide (Pharmacologically active)
Saluamine
Bioavailability of FUR in fasted
~60-64%
Terminal 1/2-life of FUR
2 hours
Excretion of FUR is greatest via
IV injection
FUR in elderly patients
Binding to albumin may be reduced and is excreted unchanged in urine
Initial diuretic effect declines
Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) MOA
Acts directly on kidneys and promotes diuresis by inhibiting Na+/Cl- cotransporter located in DCT of nephron
How do thiazides work?
Increase excretion of Na+ and Cl- in equal amounts, which decreases extracellular fluid and plasma volume –> reduces BP
Natriuresis (water loss) causes
secondary loss of K+ and bicarbonate but retains Ca+
Plasma half-life of HCTZ in fasted
2.5 hours
At maximal therapeutic dosages all thiazides are
approximately equal in diuretic potency (weak diuretic)
K+ sparing agents MOA
Inhibition of sodium reabsorption at DCT, cortical collecting tubule decreasing net negative potential of tubular lumen. Reduces K+ and H+ secretion and excretion
What does Ami treat?
Pyrizine compound that treats hypertension and congestive heart failure
Amiloride HCl possesses
weak natriuretic, diuretic, and antihypertensive activity
Amiloride in presence of thiazide or loop diuretic
Decreases enhanced urinary excretion of magnesium
Is Ami an aldosterone antagonist?
No stupid fuck
What are aldosterone antagonists?
Spironolactone
Eplerenone
Where is Ami metabolized?
idk but NOT the liver
Excreted unchanged by kidneys
Hepatorenal syndrome and Ami
Ami accumulation likely
Ami effect on GFR and renal blood flow
Very little
Prototypical ADH agonists
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
Desmopressin
ADH and Desmopression are
Peptides and must be given parenterally
ADH antagonists
Conivaptan
Tolvaptan
Demeclocycline
Lithium - not rlly used for this
ADH MOA
Facilitates water reabsorption from collecting tubule by activation of V2 receptors
Activation of V2 receptors stimulates
Adenylyl cyclase via Gs
Increases cAMP
Increased cAMP from ADH causes
Insertion of additional aquaporin AQP2 water channels
Conivaptan
ADH inhibitor at V1a and V2 receptors
Tolvaptan
More selective V2 blocker with little V1 affinity
Demeclocycline and Lithium
Inhibit action of ADH at some point distal to generation of cAMP and interfere with insertion of water channels
ADH and desmopressin will
reduce urine volume and increase concentration
Which disease is ADH and desmopression useful in?
PITUITARY diabetes insipidus
no value in nephrogenic form
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Use salt restriction, water restriction, thiazides, loop diuretics
Syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH)

How to treat SIADH
Demeclocycline
Conivaptan
Tolvaptan
Lithium

MOA of calcimimetics
enhances the sensitivity of PTH calcium sensing receptor to the concentration of blood (ionized calcium)
indirectly activates Ca receptors
CaSR more responsive to calcium
when the PT gland senses a higher ionized calcium,
the CaSR decreases the secretion of PTH

compensatory renal hypertrophy
upon removal of one kidney, the other enlarges and increases in function
dominant contributor to growth
two mechanisms of compensatory renal hypertrophy
increased activity by the remaining kidney via hypertrophy
release of a kidney specific factor in response to unilateral nephrectomy that initiates CRH
compensatory hypertrophy can only take place if
some portion of the original structure is left to react to the loss
Compensatory renal cell proliferation
kidney mass goes down, remaining renal tissue undergoes compensatory growth
compensatory renal cell proliferation is associated with
increase in size of the kidney tubules
increase in size of the glomeruli
increase in single nephron glomerular filtration rate
nephrons are unable to
divide!!!!!!!!!!
