VIOLATION OF DYNAMIC AUTOREGULATION OF RENAL BLOOD FLOW IN RATS WITH A DIET HIGH IN NACL

Аннотация

Research shows that a diet high in sodium chloride (NaCl) can a negative impact on the dynamic autoregulation of renal blood flow in rats. Dynamic autoregulation of renal blood flow is an important mechanism that helps the kidneys maintain stable blood flow within them during changes in arterial pressure. This mechanism involves the constriction or dilation of renal arterioles to maintain constant blood flow and filtration. A diet rich in sodium and chloride can disrupt this autoregulatory process. Elevated sodium levels in the body lead to increased circulating blood volume and arterial pressure. In response to this, renal arterioles must quickly react by constricting to maintain normal blood flow and filtration. However, with continued consumption of large amounts of sodium, these arterioles may lose the ability to constrict or dilate effectively, disrupting dynamic autoregulation.
