Q

What is the tubuloglomerular feedback response (TGF)?

A

Autoregulation of GFR.
➢ Keeps GFR constant
➢ Afferent and Efferent arteriolar resistance related to flow rate of NaCl by macula densa
➢ Example: GFR increase-increased NaCl to macula densa- TGF response decreases GFR

Q

What is the glomerular tubule balance (GTB)?

A

Autoregulation
of PT reabsorption rate
➢ PT reabsorption rate related to tubular load
➢ As tubular LOAD increases, rate of REABSORPTION increases.
➢ Depends on changes in peritubular capillary and renal interstitial fluid Starling’s forces.
➢ Example: GFR increase-GT balance increases PT Na+/H20 reabsorption to maintain Na+/H20 balance

Q

What do TGF and GTB together prevent?

A

prevent overloading of the distal tubule segment when GFR increases due to pressure changes or other disturbances

Q

What is the mechanistic explanation for why aldsterone has a slow onset and long duration response?

A
  • slow onset since it takes 2 hours to change gene expression
  • long duration since steroid hormones don’t like water so they are bound to proteins which increases their half-life

Q

What controls renin secretion which in turn controls angiotensin II secretion?

A

Increases renin/angiotensin II
- decreased MAP
