26
Q

What is the Vte of principle cells in the collecting ducts and why?

A

-40 mV

ENac is pulling Na+ out of lumen

27
Q

How does the early proximal tubule play a role in acid secretion?

A

Na/HCO3- exchanger
- HCO3- reabsorption

H+ secretion

28
Q

What’s the normal HCO3-?

A

24

29
Q

What is the Vte of beta-intercalated cells in the collecting duct and why?

A

-40 mV

HCO3- is being pumped into lumen via HCO3-/Cl- exchanger

30
Q

What is the Vte of the thick ascending limb and why?

A

+10 mV

lots of K+ channels pump K+ into lumen

31
Q

How does auto-regulation of renal function via the tubuloglomerular feedback work?

A

single nephron senses increase in lumenal NaCl (at macula densa)
increased constriction of arterioles
decreased GFR/RBF

32
Q

What is aldosterone’s affect on NaCl reabsorption?

A

increases

33
Q

What are the 2 steps to generating a hyperosmotic medullary interstitum?

A

glutamine breakdown

35
Q

What are the 2 factors that affect GT balance?

A

peritubular factors (change in starling forces)
luminal factors (tubule flow

36
Q

What is Gitelman Syndrome?

A

defective thiazide-sensitive NaCl co-transporter

less NaCl reabsorption = more concentrated urine

37
Q

0

A

0

38
Q

What transporter do beta-intercalated cells use to transport Cl-?

A

HCO3-/Cl- exchanger

  • aids in HCO3- secretion

A

contains masala dense and aids in tubuloglomerulus feedback (autoregulation)
