How does the kidney works?
The Kidney as an Endocrine Gland
In addition to its excretory and homeostatic roles, the kidneys also release two important hormones into the blood. These are:
Erythropoietin which acts on bone marrow to increase the production of red blood cells
Calcitriol which promotes the absorption of calcium from food in the intestine and acts directly on bones to shift calcium into the bloodstream.
Finally the kidney produces the enzyme renin, an important regulator of blood pressure.
THE RENIN ±ANGIOTENSIN MECHANISM
Decreased blood pressure stimulates the kidney to stimulates the kidney
to secrete renin. Renin splits the plasma protein angiotensinogen (synthesized by the
liver) to angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is converted to angiotensin II by an enzyme (called
converting enzyme) Secreted by the lung tissue and vascular endothelium. Angiotensin II : - causes vasoconstriction
- stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete aldosterone which maintains normalblood levels of sodium and potassium and contributes to the maintenance of normalblood pH, blood volume, and blood pressure.
