next to glomerular apparatus
associated with afferent arteriole
helps to control vascular resistance

A

kidneys own ability to control variable resistors in the arterioles
kidney can sense changes in pressure and flow

Q

baroreceptors

A

pressure receptors, tonically active, sense distension of vessels
mechanically linked to Na+ channels
-rate Na+ influx directly related to action potential frequency

16
Q

chemoreceptors

A

tonically active
sense chemicals, NaCl in kidney

17
Q

Polyanionic

A

least permeable because glomerular capillary bed repels the negative charge due to also being negative

18
Q

tonically active

A

respond to increase or decrease in action potential frequency

19
Q

perfusion

A

amount of blood going to and through tissue

20
Q

RAAS

A

renin-angiotensin aldosterone system
multiorgan activation

21
Q

renin

A

protein, cleavage
meta trophic receptors

22
Q

aldosterone

A

hormone
promotor receptor

23
Q

angiotension

A

protein
meta trophic receptors

24
Q

angiotensin 1

A

renin and angiotensin

25
ace
cleavage enzyme meets / angiotensin I to make Angiotensin II
26
Angiotensin II
very powerful vasoconstrictor increase vascular resistance and intraceullar Ca+
27
catacholamine
amino acid derivative stored in vesicles released by exocytosis
28
Effective circulating volume
adequate perfusion make sure amount of bloodflow appropriate for metabolic needs
29
ADH
made in hypothalamus secreted through posterior pituitary secreted secondary to RAAS activates vasopressin
30
vasopressin
increase effective circulating volume accumulate thirst to replace lost fluid
31
factors that effect renal vascular resistance
mesangial cells RAAS SNS activation endocrine and paracrine cntrol
32
VEGF
change capillary bed integrity dysfunction due to endothelial cell structure
33
uniport
one ion moved by protein
34
cotransport/ symport
2+ ions moved by protein
35
antiport
1+ ion and a time by vectors are opposite
36
ammonia
more lipophilic because no charge localize to nervous tissue= toxic in body
