Effects of acid-base imbalance on vascular reactivity.
Acid-base homeostasis maintains systemic arterial pH within a narrow range. Whereas the normal range of pH for clinical laboratories is 7.35-7.45, in vivo pH is maintained within a much narrower range. In clinical and experimental settings, blood pH can vary in response to respiratory or renal impairment. This altered pH promotes changes in vascular smooth muscle tone with impact on circulation...
متن کاملAcid-base imbalance and the skeleton.
Humans generally consume a diet that generates metabolic acids leading to a reduction in the concentration of systemic bicarbonate and a fall in pH. In vitro experiments indicate that this metabolic acidosis causes a release of calcium from bone that initially is simply due to physicochemical dissolution of the mineral. On a more chronic basis metabolic acidosis alters bone cell function; there...
متن کاملEffects of ouabain on vascular reactivity.
Ouabain is an endogenous substance occurring in the plasma in the nanomolar range, that has been proposed to increase vascular resistance and induce hypertension. This substance acts on the alpha-subunit of Na+,K(+)-ATPase inhibiting the Na(+)-pump activity. In the vascular smooth muscle this effect leads to intracellular Na+ accumulation that reduces the activity of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger and ...
متن کاملEffects of lead on vascular reactivity.
Considerable controversy exists concerning the possible role of lead in the etiology of human hypertension. In animal studies, there is convincing evidence that lead alters cardiovascular responsiveness; rats drinking water containing 100 ppm lead develop a chronic, significant 15 to 20 mm Hg elevation in systolic blood pressure. Pressor responsiveness to catecholamines is enhanced in animals c...
متن کاملEffects on acid-base status
SINCE the introduction of external cardiac massage the technique and results of cardiac resuscitation have received much attention, but less information is available on the effect of cardiac arrest on respiration and circulation. The authors, who provided a resuscitation service for a general hospital, were particularly interested in these aspects and in thirty-eight of the first 100 patients t...
