RAAS — Flashcards

In both the afferent and efferent arterioles of the kidney, angiotensin II activity causes vaso-_____

_____ (aldosterone or ADH) primarily regulates ECF volume and Na+ content

In response to decreased Na+ delivery, the macula densa causes increased renin release, which ultimately constricts the _____ arterioles

Angiotensin II affects baroreceptor function, limiting reflex _____ that would normally accompany its pressor effects

The action of PTH on osteoclasts is indirect and mediated by cytokines released from _____

In response to _____ Na+ delivery to the macula densa cells, the JG cells of the kidney cause increased renin release

What effect do high levels of angiotensin II have on GFR? _____

Can cortisol activate mineralcorticoid receptors?_____

When unbound, the glucocorticoid receptor is located in the _____
