Anp prostaglandins adh - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

ANP, Prostaglandins, ADHWhat are the 3 forms of natriuretic peptides? - correct answer ANP BNP CNP What is the levels of potentcy of the natriuretic peptides? - correct answer ANP>BNP>CNP ANP - correct answer Synthesized in cardiac atrial cells and ventricular myocardium. Released when atrial are stretched (mechanosensitive ion channels), laying down, volume expansion, exercise. Release can also be increased by sympathetic stimulation via alpha-1A adrenoreceptors, endothelin vi...

NURS 5315: Advanced Patho Exam 5|Latest Update Graded A+ What are the key functions of the kidneys? Excretion of metabolic waste. Regulation of water and electrolyte balance Regulation of arterial BP Erythrocyte production 1, 25 -dihyydroxy vitamin production (calcitriol) Gluconeogenesis What metabolic waste do the kidneys excrete? Urea Creatinine Bilirubin Drugs Hormone metabolites How do the kidneys regulate arterial blood pressure? RAAS The renin-angiotensin-aldoster...

Anatomy of the Kidney: - The nephron is the functional unit of the kidney. - Normal GFR is 120-125. - If 75% of nephrons quit = renal insufficiency. - Kidneys are sensitive to changes in cardiac output. VOLUME DEPENDENT. A decrease in urine output indicates a decrease in cardiac output. - If the SBP is below 70 for over 40 minutes, the kidney will become hypo then ischemic. - If the SBP drops, the arterioles dilate. If the SBP elevate, arterioles constrict. Normal Functions of the Kidney...

nephron + parts of nephron -functional unit of the kidney; consists of the following: -glomerulus: cluster of tiny blood vessels; filters blood & selectively reabsorbs material into blood, secretes others to be secreted in urine via hydrostatic pressure -bowman capsule: filtrates; GRF -basement membrane: within glomerulus; determines permeability of solutes -tubular components: proximal tubule, loop of henle, distal convoluted tube, collecting tubule (SEE OTHER NOTE FOR ROLES OF EA...
