23
Q

Where are the baroreceptors

A

Aorta and carotid sinus

24
Q

What 3 main actions does ADH do

A
  1. Increases water permeability of principal cells by inserting more aquaporins
  2. Increases urea permeability in the inner medullary collecting ducts
  3. Increased the activity of the NKCC in the TAL
25
Q

What does ADH bind to extracellularly

A

V2 receptor and functions through Gαs

26
Q

What happens after ADH binds to its receptor

A

AQP2 (aquaporin) is inserted into the apical membrane

27
Q

What happens when ADH levels decrease

A

AQP2 is endocytosed and recycled

28
Q

Which AQP are unaffected by ADH levels? Where are they

A

3 and 4; they are on the basolateral membrane

29
Q

Where are the osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus

A

OVLT and SFO

30
Q

What is special about the OVLT and SFO

A

They are outside the BBB

31
Q

What carries the signal from the brain osmoreceptors to the hypothalamus

A

Magnocellular neurons

32
Q

Where is ADH released into circulation

A

Posterior pituitary

33
Q

What things stimulate ADH secretion

A

Nausea, ang II, nicotine

A

RBF

36
Q

What buffers the vasoconstrictive effects of SNS/RAAS

A

Prostaglandins

37
Q

What do NSAIDs lead to a retention of

A
