How does ANF increase GFR?
ANF (Atrial Natriuretic Factor more commonly known as ANP - atrial natriuretic peptide) squeezes (vasoconstricts) the efferent arteriole. This means the pressure in the glomerulus is higher (like if you squeeze the end of a hose) and so more fluid is squeezed out i.e. the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is higher. It also dilates the afferent which means more fluid is going in, further increasing GFR (Marin-Grez et al.)
