28 sie 2012 · The kidney plays a central role in the regulation of arterial blood pressure. A large body of experimental and physiological evidence indicates that renal control of extracellular...
Learn how the kidneys vary our salt and water content to regulate our blood pressure.
24 sty 2023 · In this setting, kidney plays a pivotal role on the modulation of blood pressure via extracellular fluid volume regulation acquired through salt reabsorption activity, under the control of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS).
11 lut 2021 · The kidneys, which have a high specific metabolic rate, play an essential role in the long-term regulation of arterial blood pressure. In this review, we discuss the emerging role of renal ...
Activation or impairment of renal vascular P2 receptors appear to play and important role in regulating renal vascular resistance, glomerular capillary pressure, and whole kidney autoregulation, therefore contributing to the regulation of renal function and systemic blood pressure.
Renal blood flow is regulated by the autonomic nervous system, hormones, and local autoregulation mechanisms. The autonomic nervous system, primarily the sympathetic nervous system, can increase or decrease renal blood flow by constricting or dilating renal arterioles.
Evidence that the kidneys play a key role in blood pressure regulation comes from the fact that chronic abnormalities of blood pressure control, such as hypertension, almost always begin with some abnormality of renal function.
