Atrial natriuretic peptide role in the kidneys - ️️-Increases GFR by altering pressure 
in the glomerular capillaries 
-Reduces the reabsorption of sodium in the distal convoluted tubules through inhibition 
of ADH 
-Reduces renin secretion, inhibiting the RAAS 
◦Result = fluid loss from the extra cellular compartment and lowered blood pressure
