(13) - Tubular Reabsorption Flashcards
1
Q
he didn’t spend much time on this
A
2
Q
A
B (this is the action of a loop diuretic)
3
Q

A
4
Q
(Aldosterone and Late Distal TUbule and Collecting Ducts)
- fine regulation of what two things?
- Principal cells present for what?
- What does aldosterone do?
A
- sodium and potassium
- Na - K exchange
- regulates by insertion of sodium channels
5
Q
A
6
Q
(Where are the sensors?)
- barorecetpors in what two places?
- volume receptors in what?
- juxtaglomerular apparatus measures what?
A
- carotid sinus and aortic arch (measure blood pressure - stretch)
- atria
- renal perfusion (stimulates renin release)

8
Q
he says to understand these charts really well
A
9
Q
(REcap - Key Points)
- total body sodium content is regulated by what?
- Do kidneys have seperate or combined mechanisms for regulating sodium and water?
- The majority of Na is reabsorbed where?
A
- the kidneys
- separate
- proximal tubules (with progressively smaller amounts in the loop of Henle, the distal tubules and the collecting ducts)
10
Q
(Recap - Key Points)
- Reabsorption of Na is what kind of process - driven by what?
A
(just read it)
11
Q
A
12
Q
kidney regulates Na in long term - not short term - need a way to manage this
A
13
Q
(Internal potassium balance)
- normally what percentage in cells? what in ECF?
- Movement of how much into ECF is fatal?
A
- 98% in cells, 2% in ECF
- 1.5 - 2%
(there are processes that make sure K is moved intracellularly)
14
Q
A
15
Q
(Kidneys: Major Route of K Excretion)
- potassium is freely filtered, but almost all reabsorbed before reaching what?
- Primary Event: Secretion of K into distal tubule - what does this?
- Net distal reabsorption rather than secretion may occur in states of what?
A
- distal tubule
- principal cells (located in cortical and outer medullary collecting tubule)
- potassium depletion (reabsorption by alpha-intercalated cells)
