Glomerular Filtration (cont.): Occurs through pressure gradients…
Capillary blood pressure (~55mmHg) Favors filtration Plasma osmotic pressure (~30mmHg) Caused by distribution of plasma proteins across glomerular membrane Cannot cross into Bowman’s capsule Bowman’s capsule hydrostatic pressure (~15mmHG) Pressure by the fluid All three pressures determine filtration rate!

1) Changes in BP 2) Osmotic pressure Look at Table 14.1! 3) Hydrostatic pressure

GFR Regulation Autoregulation Extrinsic sympathetic control
Prevents spontaneous changes in GFR Vasoconstriction & vasodilation Myogenic mechanism – response to stretch Tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism Extrinsic sympathetic control Long-term regulation of arterial BP Sympathetic nervous system (no parasympathetic activity) Baroreceptor reflex

Distal tubule (~ 8% of total reabsorption) is hormonally regulated
Related to total Na+ load in body Changes in ECF affect osmotic pressures ex: Increased Na+ in ECF causes increased H2O in ECF Ultimately regulates blood pressure Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system ↑ Atrial natriuretic peptide ↓

Within juxtaglomerular apparatus…
Granular cells release renin In response to fall of NaCl/ ECF volume/ BP Recognized by intrarenal baroreceptors Sympathetic response to secrete more renin Ultimately trying to increase plasma volume
