Q

Which aquaporin is inserted into the luminal membrane in response to ADH? What happens when ADH decreases again?

A

Aquaporin 2

When ADH decreases, aquaporin 2 is endocytosed

Q

Osmoreceptors are located in the OVLT and SFO, 2 areas that breech the BBB. A second neuron carries the signal to the hypothalamus. The osmosensitive ________ neurons project to large diameter neurons in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the _________. ADH is carried along the axon to posterior pituitary where it is released to circulation

A

Magnocellular; hypothalamus

17
Q

Which of the following inhibits ADH secretion?

A. Nausea
B. Angiotensin II
C. Nicotine
D. Ethanol

A

D. Ethanol

[ANP also inhibits ADH]

18
Q

Action/source of ANP/BNP

A

ANP from heart atria
BNP from heart ventricles

Promotes NaCl and water secretion; elevates GFR; systemic vasodilator

19
Q

What is urodilatin

A

Locally produced in the kidney; promotes NaCl secretion

20
Q

T/F: Natriuretic peptides generally oppose RAAS, SNS, and ADH

A

True

21
Q

Effect of natriuretic peptides on GFR

A

Increases GFR by afferent vasodilation and efferent vasoconstriction

22
Q

Increased activity of the RAAS is the first of four parallel pathways that correct a low ECV. What are the other 3 pathways?

A

Sympathetic stimulation

Posterior pituitary activation and ADH release

ANP activity inhibited

23
