A
vasodilation
12
Q
PGE2
A
vasodilate afferent arteriole
increase GFR
13
Q
NO
A
vasodilator
increase GFR
14
Q
endothelin-1
A
potent vasoconstrictor: constrict afferent and efferent and decrease GFR
produced in endothelial injury
15
Q
angiotensin II
A
- vasoconstrictor: reduces GFR and opposes autoregulation
- stimulates aldosterone
- enhances PT Na reabsorption (Na/H antiporter activation)
- augments SNS
- vasopressin secretion
- contraction of mesangial cells which decreases glomerular capillary SA and reduces permeability
binds AT1 and AT2
