Regulation of ECF and Na Balance Flashcards
Define the amount of ECV in the body by percentages.
20% of plasma
5% of ECF
1.7% of total body weight
1% of body weight
How does congestive heart failure influence ECF vs ECV?
Lowers ECV
Increases ECF
What counteracts the effect of ECV during congestive heart failure?
Activation of RAAS
Stimulation of the SNS via the baroreceptor reflex
Increased ADH secretion
Increased renal fluid retention via Starling’s forces in the peritubular capillaries
A decrease in total body sodium content will have will illicit what effect from osmoreceptors?
Will cause eventual ECF contraction through decreased ADH secretion.
What would cause a more dramatic change in ADH secretion, a decrease or increase in sensed volume?
Decreases in sensed volume would cause a much more drastic increase in ADH secretion
What types of baroreceptors utilyze RAAS, Aldosterone, SNP, and ANP?
Atrial and cardiopulmonary
Where is the release of ADH and Thirst regulated in the brain?
The supraoptic and paraventricular areas of the hypothalamus
Which baroreceptor has a particular influence on the hypothalamus, significantly influency ADH secretion?
Cardiopulmonary
What function do Intrarenal baroreceptors have?
Roll in RAAS, as well as salt/water reabsorbtion
What factors contribute to NaCl reabsorption?
Water reabsorption?
How about NaCl secretion?
Renal sympathetic nerve activity and RASS
ADH (AVP, Vasopressin)
ANP, BNP, Urodilatin
Where does aldosterone and AVP stimulate Na+ and H20 reabsorption on the nephron?
Distal tubule and collecting duct
(Aldosterone also somewhat on the ascending limb of the loop of Henle)
ANP, BNP, and Urodilatin have what four effects on the nephron?
Increased GFR
Decreased renin, and as a result decreased aldosterone
Decreased AVP secretion and inhibition of AVP
Decreased NaCl; and H2O reabsorption in collecting duct
(GRAND)
Increased GFR.
Renin, AVP, and NaCldecreased
If you removed the posterior pituatary gland, what hormone we talked about would be removed?
AVP
What three factors help to stimulate release of renin?
Low perfussion pressure
SNS activation
Decreased NaCl to macula densa
How does ANP effect the vasculature and SNS activity?
Vasodilation
Decreased SNS activity
