What are the most effective, or high ceiling, diuretics?
High ceiling diuretics
Furosemide (Salix®, Disal®), bumetanide
(Bumex®), ethacrynic acid (Edecrin®)
High ceiling diuretics act at _______ ______, in the ______ ascending limbs.
MOA: Binds and impairs the function of the ______ (reduce up to ____% of ______ reabsorption)
Henle‘s loop, thick, NKCC, 25, sodium
Which loop diuretics act at the NKCC in the mTAL?
Furosemide
Bumetanide
Ethacrynic acid
K can move to tubular lumen or interstitium.
Cl has one chance, the Cl channel at BL membrane. CL enters interstitium, whihic becomes more negative than the lumen. The differenc ebetween lumen and interst –> drrives movement of + ions Mg, Ca, sodium, and K. Move through tigh junctions and can diffuse through spores via paracellular pathway.
If you block Na reabsorption and paracellular movement of Ca and Mg. 65% of Mg is absorbed in mTAL, whihc is critical.
_________ (_________ derivative) is the most popular loop diuretic in veterinary medicine (tablets, boluses, injections).
- It increases ______ and ______ excretion with the urine → ___ ECF
- Blockage of the ?
- Disruption of the _________ ______ system
- Possess ________ effects at low doses
Furosemide, sulfonamide, sodium, chloride, ↓, tubulo-glomerular feedback, countercurrent, multiplier, antioxidant
ECF = intersttiial fluid, wihc we want to remove to prevent edema.
Block feedback; NKCC is a functional component of glomerular feedback. NKCC is in macula densa cells and this is the only way they can detect how much sodium enters cells so they can adjust GFR. ? is not able to communicate with glomerulus, so the GFR will keep going b/c you are blokcing the tubularglomerular feedback.
System: Is it important for the process of the counter current multiplying mechanism? Blood flows via vasorecta on one side it flows down and the ubular fluid flows up. Vasa recta goes up, blood flows upwards, and then the descending loop of henle makes fluid flow down. The other aspect is the increased osmolarity in the medullary interstitium.
Osmolality of interstiiium goes down when block NKCC whihc impairs urine concentration system maanged by countercurrent system, which is good because we want to get rid of the water.
Furoesemid specifically –> antiox. It can act as a free radical scavenger, making free radicals less harmful

During exercise, cardiac ________ increases 6 to 8 times → high _____ atrial pressure → pulmonary capillaries → blood vessels _____ in order to ___ PVR and eventually ______
Signs:
pulmonary ________, _____, ________ of the pulmonary ______, intra-alveolar ______, and presence of blood in the ______
Furosemide lowers pulmonary vascular pressure and is used to treat exercise-
induced pulmonary hemorrhage in horses
During exercise, cardiac output increases 6 to 8 times → high left atrial pressure → pulmonary
hypertension → blood vessels dilate in order to ↓PVR and eventually rupture
Signs:
pulmonary hypertension, edema, rupture of the pulmonary capillaries, intra-alveolar hemorrhage, and presence of blood in the
airways
Furosemide indications:
- Udder edema, cattle: 1 mg/kg IM or IV; 5 mg/kg PO
- Diuresis with acute renal failure: 5-20 mg/kg IM, IV, PO, 8-12 h or as needed. Adjust to lowest dose possible. Very low urine production in ARF, so you need to make patient urinate ASAP, so make patient urinate. Use furosemide (first choice).
- Hypertension: 1-2 mg/kg; maximum of 8 mg/kg for acute renal failure, PO 12 h
EIPH: 0.5-1 mg/kg IV no later than 4 h prior the race - Hydrocephalus, brain edema: 0.5-2 mg/kg PO 12 h
- Ascites from hepatic failure: 1-2 mg/kg PO, SC 12-24
Hypercalcemia: 1-2 mg/kg IM, IV, PO, SC 8-12 h; 5 mg/kg IV as needed; 2-5 mg/kg
IV to effect. Reduce reabsorb of Ca in TAL
What happens as a result of treating conditions with furosemide long term?
Treating long term with furosemide causes detrimental effects to K in the blood. Either use a potassium sparing diuretic or check electrolytes.
Potassium sparing in image
- List two examples of Potassium sparing diuretics.
- Potassium sparing diuretics function to?
- Triamterene and amiloride
- Impair the electrogenic sodium reabsorption in the late DT and CD. Reduced sodium reabsorption causes less potassium to leave the cell → spare of
potassium
… However, the limited elimination of sodium makes these drugs less effective in
wasting sodium and they are usually combined with another diuretic
- List two examples of Potassium sparing diuretics
- _____ bioavailability, ___-____% in humans
- Side effects: May save too much ____ –> ________)
- Contraindications?
- Treatment with _______
- Indication and doses: As a ________, 1-2 mg/kg, ___ every 12 h
- Triamterene and amiloride
- Oral bioavailability, 50-60% in humans
- Side effects: May save too much K –> hyperkalemia)
- Contraindications: Hyperkalemia.
- Treatment with NSAIDs
- Indication and doses:
As a diuretic, 1-2 mg/kg, PO every 12 h
- List an example of a Potassium sparing diuretic that also acts as an Aldosterone antagonists.
- Receptors for this diuretic are located where?
- Describe the MOA.
- What does this diuretic NOT require to reach its site of action?
- Spironolactone
- Spironolactone is an antagonist of aldosterone receptors in the late DCT and CDs
- It causes calcium excretion in the urine
- Spironolactone does not require active secretion at the PT in order to reach its site of action
Spirinolactone bind to the ___________ receptor in the renal tubules, blocking the synthesis of __________. This reduces _____ reabsorption and ____ and ____ secretion –> diuresis and the potential for the patient to develop _________. ________ is also excreted in the urine.
Spirinolactone bind to the mineralcorticoid receptor in the renal tubules, blocking the synthesis of aldosterone. This reduces Na+ reabsorption and K+ and H+ secretion –> diuresis and the potential for the patient to develop hyperkalemia. Calcium is also excreted in the urine.
The target, mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is the receptor for aldoesterone, in the CD in the principal cells. MR receptor is in the cytosol, not membrane bound, so aldosteroen diffuses into cell, moves to nucleus and induces transcription of genes that will produce ENAC. At the same time, aldosterone will also induce activity of Na, K, ATPase. What stimulates rebaospriton of Na ithout stimulating movement of Na at ? membrane. Aldosteorne does oth? so sodium can leave the cell.
Spironolacton e will difuse into the cell. Comes fro the blood, and reaches the target/ Binds to MR and prevents ldosterone from binding to receptor so that this process does not happen. No Aldosteorne receptor complex, no translcoation to nucleus, no gene transcripton., and finally less Na/K/ATPase
Amiloride ?
Causes Na and Ca elimination.
Spironolactone
- ______ protein binding and ____ bioavailability (60-70%), _____ half-life (1.4 h)

Hypoalbuminemia + proteinuria + edema
Less protein binding of the drug
and reduced distribution to
action site

lumen reduces action
Effects of ADH (aka ?)
Either increased ECF __________ or decrease in blood ________ stimulate hypothalamic osmoreceptors which has two important effects:
o ______ release, which stimulates water _________ by the kidneys (urine concentration)
o Stimulation of the thirst center to promote fluid _______
arginine vasopressin, AVP
Either increased ECF osmolality or decrease in blood volume stimulate hypothalamic osmoreceptors which has two important effects:
o ADH release, which stimulates water reabsorption by the kidneys (urine concentration)
o Stimulation of the thirst center to promote fluid intake
List the ADH receptors
ADH receptors:
V1a: glomerulus and renal
medulla
V1b: inner medulla
V2: mTAL, DCT, CDs (AQP2)
The receptors for ADH are called?
- How does only water get through the AQP2?
V receptors, or Vasopressin receptors (b/c ADH is also called vasopressin).
V2 are relevant for aquaporins. Not every aquaporin is responsive to ADH, only AQP2.
Argenine vasopressin/AVP will bind to V2 –> form cAMP –> pKa –> phosphorylation of target proteins –> translation –> more AQP2. AQP 2 is packed in vesicles which then migrate to apical membrane via sorting and then fuse with the apical membrane in place.
- Size and charge via the selectivity filter.
AQP3 and 4 enable the water molecules to leave the cell.
List the ADH stimulants
- Vinca alkaloids
- Cyclophosphamide
- Tricyclic antidepressants
- Isoproterenol
List the ADH inhibitors
GEM
- Ethanol
- Mineralocorticoids
- Glucocorticoids
