Q

Why hyperkalaemia not commoner following tfusion

A

blood bank blood has a high [K] 12mmol/l @ 7d
despite hyperK not comon cause

Restoration RCC metab act = K reuptake by RCC
Na K Atpse

Elevated catehcol - cell uptake K

Dilutional effect distrib Excell space

Q

Absorption Iron

A

Entercyte duodenum + upper jej

Firstly - Iron ferrous and ferric

Ferric convert to ferrous in stomach
promoted H+ andascrob avid

advant conersion
easily release ligand bound - soluble
Ferric precip >3
not avail abs

Ferrous sol up pH 7.5
avail absorption

Addit low gastric ph some sub - AA
bind ferric form sol chelate form - absorb in duo

Ideallly
1 Reduction of Ferric iron to ferrous - remain solbue at phys ph in do

Formation so chelate ferric release apical membrane

BOth facil low gastric pH

Ferriductase
DMT1

Haem abosorption
Diet Hb and my - degrad rel haem
haem soluble - alkaline duo contn
insol<6
Read abs intact - haem receptor

Indepp dmt1

Haem broken down rel ferrous

Transferrin bind Fe3 on 1 site
normal don tferrin 1/3 saturated

32
Q

How much iron absorbed day

A

Balance in = out

Typically .6-1mg dat male
2.1 mg female

Femal - menstrul loss
only 5-10% of whats in diet
Can increase during preg -

33
Q

How much iron is in the body

A

Tot body store70kg 3500-3700mg

NEarl all bound protein

Functional pool
Hb 65-70% 2500
Myo 5% 130
other prot 0.2% 8

Tport pool

Tferrin .1% 4mg

Storage pool
Ferritin (liver mostly) 25% 1000mg

34
Q

Why is always present bound

A

Chem active
potentially toxic sub
Bind non spec - many prot and impair func

Catalyst many ox reaction - lipid prex cell membrane

AVoid - always bound

No phys control mech - excretion
Control solely - regulation absorption

mense loss - other losses cell slouhgly
amt small
proess uncontrol

35
Q

Mucosal block

A
COntrol store - small bowel mucosal cell
control absorption - prevent excess entering
enterocytes
overload - mech malfxn - haemochroma
cant excrete excess

If iron low plasma level tferrin high
iron sat low
more iron passes ferritin to mucosal cell to tferrin blood

Iron adequate - sat tferrin higher - iron remin entercote
turonver freq - iron loss cell shed

Mucosal block can be overwhelmed

36
Q

What is absorbed iron used for

How iron enter cell

A

Haem bound prot

Hb most imp prot
myoglob cycto catalases oxidase

25mg haem used in hb syhtn
recycle store

All cell req Iron cytochromes for ox phosp w mitochond

tferrin tport iron to membrane
tferrin rec - endocyosis
Release returned intact to ISF

37
Q

Ferritin

A

storage iron
entercyte and liver prod apoferr which bind iron
apoferr and iron - ferritn

1 ferritin can have 4000 molecules of Fe3

Cell iron increase bind mRNA - increase tranlsation prot
Increased storage

Liver - stored major
many cell spleen b,m contrain

REtendomacrophage stoarge

Demand = tferr sat fall and increase tferrin sythn

Iron release and conv to Fe++

Ferrous form bind tport - cross membrane

Caerolupasmin convert ferric form can bind tferrin in blood

if irons tore high cell accum hemosiderin- insol cell iron

43
Q

Blood groups

What are the major blood groups

A

Various group genet determine antigen present membrane

Divided based presence / absence

Importane - antigenicity

Most antigenic - ABO
Next Rh

44
Q

Tell me about ABO - what antigens involved

A

A
B
H

Gene H - tferase enz - gene involveddoes not directly code antigen - enzyme places fucose reside on end membrane

A - tfrease - NAcetlyglacatosamine end fucose reside - alter A Antigen

B - tfrese - galacctose reside end near fucose - does not code direct

Indi only have H - no A / B - in rCC call O
Have circulating Anti A + B abody
present w/out previous exposure

Also found salivar, kidney, liverlung
Rh only RCC

45
Q

What Ig class Anti A and Anti B -

A

Nat occuring - ant a + b - IgM

Some people devlop - igG

46
Q

Rhesus

A

Two close releated located on chr 1

each person up to 4 Rh gene

D + CcEe - D or Dand C or C&E or E or e

D antigen - means absence of d antigen

Rh status test
Rh antigen
Rh+ or Rh - based on D antigen sat

Have D - Rh +
85% Cascausian

No naturally occuring abod to Rh (req exposure)

47
Q

Rh + foetus - Rh - mother affect 1 st preg

A

Moth not have Rh abod (anti D)
Unless prev exposed Rh +

Previous preg Rh + foetus
Use anti D passive immunisation + Avoid RH+ child bearing age
RH sens during deliver - rare

48
Q

Other that can cause rxn

A

Kell Duffy Kidd - also cause haemolytic rxn

49
Q

Complement

A

Proteolytic system - present in plasma
aPart innate non spec

> 25 pl prot

Classical / alternative

Come together coomon final pathy
Combine C3

Classical - activated antigen-abod complex
