Q

how can the kidney regulate bp?

A

kidney role is to filter blood so when there is less blood flow it senses a blood pressure drop so kidneys with stimulate the production of renin. Renin will stimulate the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin 1. Angiotensin 1 is converted to angiotensin 2. angiotensin 2 is a vasoconstrictor. thus raise bp. angiotensin 2 can also stimulate adrenal gland to secrete aldosterone. aldosterone will promote kidneys to reabsorb Na and H20. reabsorb H20 increases blood volume thus inc bp
