Diuretics reduce the movement of water out of the filtrate Diuretics reduce ECF fluid volumes Use of diuretics results in increased urine volumes Diuretics increase the placement of aquaporinsarrow_forwardDiuresis is increased urinary excretion. 2-3 cups of coffee has a diuretic effect, most likely because it causes vasodilation of the afferent glomerular arteriole which leads to a change in glomerular filtration rate (how quickly/how much filtration is occurring). It also appears that caffeine has a natriuretic effect on the nephron, leading to decreased NaCl reabsorption. (from Rang et al., 2016; p594 & Shirley et al., 2002) Considering that information, describe the effects that Lacy's coffee consumption had on her hydration statusarrow_forward
- Which of the following is TRUE concerning renal handling of potassium? a. A high potassium meal will cause enhanced basolateral uptake via sodium-potassium pumps b. Most potassium reabsorption occurs at the distal tubules c. Aldosterone enhances potassium reabsorption at the proximal tubule d. Potassium is not filtered, so urinary excretion of potassium will only occur by stimulating potassium secretion e. Decreased extracellular potassium concentration increases aldosterone production and thereby reduces potassium secretionarrow_forwardDiuretics cause sodium excretion. Sodium follows water. Therefore, diuretics lead to a reduction in volume (remember BP = heart rate x volume x blood vessel tone (SVR)). Since diuretics lower volume, they lower BP. When would diuretics be indicated? When would they be contraindicated?arrow_forwardThiazide diuretics are a type of drug that act on the sodium transport pump in the distal convoluted tubule, used to treat hypertension and edema. They inhibit sodium and chloride reabsorption by blocking this transporter. Based on your understanding, describe the effects this would have in the relevant structures and functions inside the nephron , the effect it would have on the resulting urine output , and the effect this would have on the blood throughout the body . Use specific terms and structures discussed in class in your answer.arrow_forward
