Q

When you’re in +/- Na balance, which compartment is affected?

A

ECF volume will expand/contract, has nothing to do with plasma sodium concentration

**CHANGE IN NA+ IS EQUIVALENT TO ECF VOLUME

Q

effective circulating volume is related to adequate perfusion of vascular beds (brain, heart, and other vital organs) and is dependent on these 3 factors

A
  • cardiac output
  • MAP (BP)

Q

Changes in ECV will be picked up by volume sensors, which then send these 4 important signals to the kidney. List the ones that respond to increases in ECV and to decreased ECV.

A

Increased ECV: atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) –excretin sodium

Decrease ECV: SNS, RAAS, and ADH (from posterior pituitary)

Q

An increase in sympathetic nervous system (increases/decreases) 5 important things

A
  1. increases cardiac output
    (beta1 receptors, inotrophy, chronotropy, lusitropy)
  2. increases vascular tone (alpha1 receptors, constricts and increases resistance on arteriole side and venous side, moves blood from venous to circular side to increase preload)
  3. Decreases RPF and GFR (constricts afferent arteriole, decreases glomerular pressure, decreases filtration) causes….
  4. decrease in NaCl excretion
  5. increase renin release

Q

a decrease in MAP causes an (increase/decrease) of renin release

A

increase (decrease in MAP causes a decrease in arteriole stretch, renin is released, causing an increase in MAP, an increase in AA stretch, and a decrease of renin release)

Q

Function of aldosterone and where in nephron and what channels

A

increases Na reabsoprtion in CD (principal cell)

  • increases Na channel (reabsorption on apical side)
  • increases K channel (increased secretion due to paracellular transport of Cl)
  • increases ATPase on basal side

long term: increases the number of transporters/channels by acting on TFs

22
Q

3 aspects of glomerulotubular balance that try and keep NaCl delivery to CD constant

A
  1. starling forces
  2. filtered load: glucose/AA
  3. tubuloglomerular feedback
23
Q

How do starling forces contribute to glomerulotubular balance and thus constant delivery of NaCl to CD?

A
  • if lie down, increase hydrostatic pressure of glomerular capillary, thus more gets filtered
  • increased filtration causes increase in osmotic pressure in peritubular capillaries (since holding protein back)
  • since also moving more fluid out, hydrostatic pressure in capillaries decreases
  • favors reabsorption
24
Q

how does filtered load of glucose and amino acids contribute to glomerulotubular balance?

A

glucose and Na are coupled with Na in symporter

-if want to reabsorb them, will also reabsorb more Na

25
Q

how does tubuloglomerular feedback contribute to glomerulotubular balance?

A
  • JGA will release renin

- signals to MD

26
Q

When there is a decrease in ECV, where is the most Na reabsorbed so that the same amount is delivered to CD? Who are the major players and where are they acting on the nephron?

A

More absorbed in the PT/Thick descending loop
(normal is 67%, now its 75%)

TAL-will respond to amount being delivery by either increase or decreasing its capacity (normal is 25%, now it’s 15%

  • glomerulus: SNS and AII increase
  • PT: SNS and AII increase
  • DT: Aldo increases
  • CD: Aldo and ADH increase (enhances water reabsorption)
27
Q

When there is an increase in ECV, where is the most Na absorbed so that the same amount is delivered to the CD? Who are the major players and where are they acting on the nephron?

A

Less absorbed in the PT/Thick descending loop (normal is 67%, now its 60%)

TAL goes from 25% to 30% since flooded with stuff the PT didn’t absorb

SNS, AII, Aldo, and ADH decrease
ANP increases in CD

28
Q

changes in ____ will release ADH directly from ______

A

osmolality, posterior lobe of pituitary gland

29
Q

changes in ______ reflect water balance

A

plasma Na

30
Q

(+) H2O balance - 3 ways to describe it

A

input > output ….. low plasma[Na]….hyponatremic

31
Q

(-) H2O balance - 3 ways to describe it

A

output > input ….high plasma[Na]….hypernatremic

32
Q

most important osmoles in ECF:

most important osmoles in ICF:

A

ECF: Na+
ICF: K+

33
Q

Na is an (ineffective/effective) osmole, meaning….

A

effective. doesn’t pass through membrane easily, sets gradient for water
ineffective: urea and glucose

34
Q

What happens to the following (increase/decrease) when you drink a lot of water:

  • Posm
  • Osmoreceptors
  • ADH secretion
  • Thirst + H20 intake
  • Water Excretion
  • net effect on Posm
A
  • Posm decreases
  • osmoreceptors swell
  • ADH secretion decreases
  • thirst and H20 uptake decreases
  • water excretion increases
  • Posm increases
35
Q

What happens to the following (increase/decrease) you eat a salty bag of chips

  • Posm
  • Osmoreceptors
  • ADH secretion
  • Thirst + H20 intake
  • Water Excretion
  • net effect on Posm
A
  • Posm increases
  • osmoreceptors shrink (water moves from inside cell to outside)
  • ADH secretion increases
  • thirst/H2O intake increases
  • water excretion decreases
  • Posm decreases
36
Q

What are 3 main factors regulating ADH secretion

A
  1. Body fluid osmolality (Posm)
  2. Change in effective circulating volume (non-osmotic)
  3. Non-physiologic factors (pain, nausea, drugs)
37
Q

change in ECV has a (more/less) sensitive response for ADH release

A

less sensitive-goes all out when reaches threshold

38
Q

Which is more important in causing ADH release?

A

Non-osmotic change change in ECV–most important factor-survival mechanism

39
Q

As change in ECV becomes more negative (decreases), ADH (increases/decreases)

A

ADH increases exponentially

40
Q

ECV depletion vs. dehydration

A

ECV depletion: water AND sodium depletion

dehydration: ONLY water depletion

41
Q

When urine flow rate (V) is low, urine osmolality is (low/high)

A

high (little amount, very concentrated)

42
Q

when ADH is low, amount of urine is (low/high)

A

high, since ADH is responsible for water absorption.

43
Q

While urine flow rate (V) and urine osmolality are inversely exponentially proportional, what factor stays constant?

A 
Solute excretion (predominantly Na)
excretion rate: Uoxm x V
44
Q

Kidney can regulate solute excretion independently from what? What disease causes problems with this?

A

independently from water intake. renal disease disrupts this

45
Q

Kidney can regulate solute excretion independently of water intake. Where does this occur in the nephron and explain the mechanism.

A

Principal cell of CD is where this regulation occurs. ADH binds to V2 receptors on basolateral side, causes addition of AQP channels on apical side, allows for H2O reabsorption.

46
Q

Dilute urine:

Urine osmolality > Plasma Osmolality

A

Posm > Uosm (Uosm min = 50 mOsm/L)

47
Q

Concentrated urine:

Urine osmolality > Plasma osmolality

A

Uosm > Posm (Uosm max = 1200 mOsm/L)

+ADH

48
Q

What determines Uosm?

A

Water balance

49
Q

Reference Posm

A

~300 mOsm/Kg H20

50
Q

Diluting segments of the nephron and why

A

Thick ascending limb & distal tubule

water impermeable region of nephron

51
Q

3 factors for max excretion (max dilute urine)

disease entities correspond to these

A
  1. in tact tubules (diluting segments)
  2. adequate delivery of H2O and solute (GFR)
  3. need absence of ADH
52
Q

5 important factors for max reabsorption (max concentrated urine)

A
  1. in tact tubules (need TAL to establish a gradient by actively transporting NaCl out of lumen)
  2. adequate delivery of H2O and solute
  3. hyperosmotic medullary gradient (gradient set-up for water to be reabsorbed)
  4. need ADH–signal to tell principal cells to integrate AQP channels
  5. proper cell response to ADh signal
53
Q

Diuretics have direct impact on which part of the nephron?

A

on the diluting segment, blocking NaCl reabsorption
