Q

What occurs in thick ascending limb?

A

Primary site sodium reabsorption
Impermeable water
Na+/K+ ATPase on the basolateral membrane
Pump Na+ and K+ into cell

Q

Explain RAAS system?

A

1) Reduced sodium delivery to distal convoluted tubule detected by macula densa cells
2) Reduced blood pressure (decrease perfusion pressure) detected by baroreceptors in afferent arteriole
3) Sympathetic stimulation juxtaglomerular cells via B1 adrenoreceptors
4) Renin cleaves angiotensinogen (liver) to form angiotensin 1
5) Angiotensin 1 converted to angiotensin 2 by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE- lungs)
6) Angiotensin exert action binding receptors (most AT1)
7) Effect angiotensin:
Arterioles- vasoconstriction
Kidney- stimulate Na+ reabsorption
Adrenal cortex- release aldosterone
Hypothalamus- increase thirst sensation
- stimulate release ADH- AQP1
8) Angiotensin 2 act AT1 receptors in endothelium of arterioles- vasoconstrict- signalling via Gq protein- increase peripheral resistance- increase blood pressure
9) Angiotensin 2 act hypothalamus stimulate thirst- fluid consumption- raise circulating volume- raise bp
Act hypothalamus increase secretion ADH from posterior pituitary- more concentration urine
10) Angiotensin 2 stimulate sympathetic nervous system- increase release noradrenaline- increase CO, vasoconstrict arterioles, release renin

11) Angiotensin 2 act kidney:

1) Renal artery and afferent arteriole-
- Vasoconstriction- increase resistance (less efferent)
- Voltage-gated calcium channels open- influx of calcium ions

2) Efferent arteriole- increase resistance
-Vasoconstriction (greater than afferent arteriole)

3) Mesangial cells- contraction, l
- Decreased filtration area
- Activation of Gq receptors- open voltage-gated calcium
channels

4) Proximal convoluted tubule- Increased Na+ reabsorption
- Increased Na+/H+ antiporter activity

12) Act adrenal cortex stimulate release aldosterone (released
zona glomerulus)
Aldosterone act principal cells of collecting ducts in nephron-
expression apical epithelial Na+ channels (ENaC) to reabsorb urinary sodium- sodium pumped into blood via Na/K pump- K+ moved blood to principle cell- renal tubule- K+ excreted
Aldosterone reduces lvls potassium blood
Activity of the basolateral Na+/K+/ATPase is increased
