Summary Introduction

To review:

The effects of the following hormones on electrolyte balance.

a. Angiotensin-II

b. Aldosterone

c. Parathyroid hormone

d. Vitamin D

e. Atrial natriuretic peptide

Introduction:

The electrolytes are an important part of our body. The main electrolytes are sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium and calcium ions. The maintenance of these electrolytes is done by the urinary and the endocrine system of the body. The homeostasis of electrolytes is important for the body.

All of the following medications augment activity of sulfonylureas, except:A. Anabolic steroidsB. ACE inhibitorsC. SalicylatesD. Loop diureticsE. Tetracyclines
1. 3 of the following are true of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) A. The JG cells are located at the distal collecting tubule B. The Juxtaglomerular cells (JG cells) are modified smooth muscles in the afferent arteriole C. The Macula densa detects osmolality of the filtrate D. The Macula densa is made up of tall columnar cells 2. 2 of the following are true of the RAAS responding to a decrease in Na in the filtrate A. Macula densa detects the decrease in osmolality B. JG cells are stimulated by Macula densa through tight junctions C. Aldosterone stimulates principal cells of collecting tubule to reabsorb water D. Aldosterone reabsorbs Na and by osmotic forces increase fluid in the extracellular compartment 3. 2 of the following are true of the loop of Henle A. Descending thick limb is also called the pars recta of the proximal tubule B. The function of the descending thick limb is similar to the distal convoluted tubule C. Cells of the descending thin limb are very…
