Regulation of Kidney Function -

  • The functioning of the kidneys is efficiently monitored and regulated by hormonal feedback mechanisms involving the hypothalamus, JGA and to a certain extent, the heart.

Control by ANF:

  • An increase in blood flow to the atria of the heart can cause the release of Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF). 
  • ANF can cause vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels) and thereby decrease the blood pressure. 
  • ANF mechanism, therefore, acts as a check on the renin-angiotensin mechanism.
