27
Q

renin is released when

A

bp decreases, sympathetic innervation, osmolarity of tubular fluid is too low (sensed by macula densa)

28
Q

angiotensin

A

restores BP

arteriole vasoconstriction
aldosterone secretion
CNS stimulation (for thirst and ADH release)
salt and water retention
29
Q

atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)

A

dilates afferent arteriole, constricts efferent arteriole to decrease GFR

inhibits salt reabsorption leading to increased urine production and decreased BV and BP

inhibits renin secretion and angiotensin

produced by the heart

30
Q

renal clearance

A

calculated value representing volume of plasma from which “S” is completely cleared per unit of time

31
Q

renal clearance equation

A

clearance of S = urine excretion rate of S / plasma concentration of S

Cs = (Us * V)
————
Ps

32
Q

clearance of S = the glomerular filtration rate when

A
  • S is not freely filterable at glomerulus
  • S is not reabsorbed
  • not secreted
  • not synthesized
  • not broken down
33
Q

how can creatinine clearance estimate GFR?

A

is endogenous that fits criteria

small protein secreted by proximal tubules
excretion rate exceeds filtration by 5 to 10%

34
Q

renal disease

A

decreased GFR (elevated creatinine or decreased creatinine clearance)

35
Q

Estimating renal blood flow

A

substance’s clearance can be used to calculate renal blood flow if it is freely filtered and completely secreted

36

41
Q

42
Q

calculating renal threshold

A

Tm / GFR

43

60
Q

external urethral sphincter

A

skeletal muscle; sympathetic activation for contraction

filling: stimulated
micturition: inhibited

61
Q

bladder: micturition

A

stretch receptors in bladder send sensory info to CNS

parasympathetic neurons activate, motor neurons to external sphinc. inactivate
smooth muscle contracts, internal sphincter passively opens, external relaxes

65
Q

aldosterone

A

released when BP decreases (via renin-angiotensin II) and increased K+ extracellular concentration

66
Q

aldosterone + K+

A

increased extracellular K+ stimulates aldosterone secretion to prevent hyperkalemia which leads to cardiac arrhythmias

increased plasma K+ –> increased aldosterone –> increased tubular K+ secretion in exchange for Na+
