GU Flashcards
Development of male and female genitalia
- what determines sex
- what determines gonadal and external genitalia differentiation
- genetic, wither XX or XY
- SRY gene
Gonadal Stage
- primitive gonads: what are they, how are they formed
- SRY gene
- germ cells; primordial germ cells
- influences gonads to secrete testosterone and Mullerian inhibiting factor
Ductal stage
- MIF causes
- mesonephric ducts develop into
- what is not produced in female embryo
- what does estrogen do
- regression of he paramesnopehric ducts
- epididymus, ductus deferens, seminal vesicles
- MIF and testosterone
- paramesonephric duct gives rise to uterine tubes, uterus, cervix, and upper vagina
Male and Female equivalents
- genital tubercle
- UG folds
- labioscrotal swellings
- UG sinus: bot sexes, female, male
- glans penis, clitoris
- ventral portion of penis, labia minor
- scrotum and labia majora
- give rise to the bladder, urethra; skenes ducts (in lower part of urethra that drains alkaline fluid into urethra)/ prostate duct, bartholins glans (in labia majora and produce muco protein secretion through duct) /cowpers glands at base of penis, and lower vagina
Male Vs Female Development
- mullerian inhibiting factor
- if not present
- mesnophric persists and paramensonephric die
- paramesonephric persists
Mullerian Inhibiting Factor
- produced at, by
- leydig secrete
- testosterone vs DHT
- 5- alpha reductase def
- around 8th week gestation, sertoli cells
- testosterone
- t: internal genitalia, D: external genitalia
- normal internal but female outside when born; will be able to develop 2nd sex characteristics at puberty bc of increase of testosterone
Development of Kidney
- perfusion
- increases susceptibility
- division of blood supply
- rate 3-5x of other organs
- to ischemia and infarcts
- 90% to cortex and 10% at medulla
Embryo of Kindey
- metanephros
- urteric bud
- vitillene duct
- allantois
- adult kidney
- outpouching of mesonephric duct
- communication between yolk sac and mid gut
- gas exchange and waste elimination
Phases of development of kidney
- derived from
- glomerulus produced by
- functional by
- maturation
- nephrogenic chord from urogenital ridge
- precursors of vasc endo cells position themselves at tip of renal tubules to diff into glomerulus
- 32-36 wks
- ascend and elongate the urters as body grows
Metanephros
- when
- made from
- when is renal tubule development signaled
- 5th wk gestation
- metnephrogenic mesoderm and urteric bud
- after ureteric bud starts to form it will signal metanephros to begin renal tubule development
Vitelline Duct
- what is it
- appears
- obliterated by
- vitelline fistula
- meckels diverticulum: what is it, rule of 2
- long narrow tube joins yolk sac to midgut lumen
- 4th wk gestation
- 9th week gestation
- if duct fails to close, will have digested food and bilious fluid come out of umbilicus
- persistence of proximal part of vitelline duct; 2 types tissue -> pancreatic and gastric, 2:1 male to female; 2 feet away from illeum
Allantois
- what is it
- becomes -> function
- patent
- urachal cyst
- urachal sinus
- urachal diverticulum
- connects bladder to hindgut and allows for waste elimination of fetus
- urachus; connection between bladder and umbilicus
- open communication between bladder and umbilicus -> expel urine from umbilicus
- failure of central portion of allontois to be obliterated causes extraperitoneal mass located between umbilicus and suprapubic region
- failure of closure at level of urachus and will get infected
- failure of close by bladder and urine will get into diverticulum allowing for stone formation
Location of kidneys
- left
- right
- L1
- L2, bc of liver
Cortex
- what is it
- contains
- function
- blood supply
- outermost layer of kidney
- glomerulus, PCT and DCT
- isotonic urine
- 90%
Medulla
- what is it
- contains
- function
- blood supply
- inner layer kidney
- LOH, papilla, caylexes, renal pelvis, ureters
- hypertonic urine
- 10% blood supply
Ureter blood supply
- abdominal
- pelvic
- renal or gonadal -> from aorta
- superior and inferior vesical a -> from internal illiac a
Ureter course
- abd: begins, UPJ, continues, level of pole of kidney, medial, lateral
- pelvic: enters, crosses, under, lateral, medial
- retroperitoneal; begins at level of renal a and v but is posterior to them, uretero pelvic junction at 2nd vertebrae; continues ant to psoas and at level of pole of kidney goes under gonadal v; head medially to SI then laterally once they get into pelvis
- enters pelvis and crosses ant to illiac A, then goes under ovarian vessels laterally to iliac vessels, then go laterally to ischial spines then go medial to get to bladder
Ureter constriction
- 1
- 2
- 3
- uretero pelvic junction
- mid ureter
- bladder entrance
Blood supply of kidneys
- pathway
- left renal v: size, drains
- right renal v location
- aorta -> renal a -> segmental a -> interlobar -> arcuate a -> cortical radiate a -> afferent arteriole -> glomerulus -> efferent arteriole -»»>IVC
- left is longer than r bc has to travel further to ge to to IVC, into renal v and then renal v goes to IVC (predisposed to vericocele) while right goes straight into IVC
- ant to abd aorta
Filtration membrane
- endothelial cells
- GBM
- podocyte
- fenestrated epi w/ small openings to prevent proteins from getting out
- type 4 collagen, negatively charged
- line outer side of basement membrane, have foor processes that also help w filtration
JG apparatus
- function
- macula densa: location, function
- detects changes in renal blood flow and produces renin if slower than it should be
- located in DCT, detects Na and leads to increase of renin release when NaCl detected is decreased
GFR
- what is it
- how much reabsorbed
- how is it calculated
- what is clearance
- filtration factor
- renal plasma flow
- volume of fluid filtered by glomerulus and sent into bowmans capsule / time
- 99% filtrate will be reabsorbed in nephron
- clearance of inulin; bc inulin will get filtered but cannot be reabsorbed or secreted
- [ ] urine * urine vol / [ ] plasma
- GFR/ renal plasma flow -> should be 20%
- clearance of PAH -> filtered by glomerulus, cannot be reabsorbed but can be secreted -> represents everything in blood
Glomerular Forces
- Kf
- hydrostatic pressure in glomerulus
- hydrostatic pressure in bowmans capsule
- oncotic pressure in vessel
- oncotic pressure in bowmans capsule
- constant due to number of fenestrations in endothelial cells of glomerulus
- blood being pushed forward in vessel and out into bowmans capsule
- fluid being pushed back into glomerulus -> pathologic
- proteins in glomerulus trying to pull fluid back into glomerulus -> pathologic
- pull fluid into bowmans capsule -> pahtologic
Dilation and constriction of arterioles
- dilation of afferent art: what does it do, what causes it
- constrict efferent art: what does it do, what causes it
- constrict afferent: what does it do, what causes it
- dilate efferent: what does it do, what causes it
- increases flow in -> increases GFR; prostgalndins, low dose dopamine, ANP, NP
- decreases flow out -> increase GFR; angiotensin II low dose
- decrease flow in -> decrease GFR; angiotensin II at high doses, NorEpi, ADH, prostaglandin blockaid (NSAID)
- increase flow out -> decrease GFR; angiotensin II blockade (ACE i)
Normal Clearance Valuse
- glucose
- inulin
- PAH
- completely reabsorbed
- not reabsorbed or secreted
- filtered and then completely secreted
Transport max
- what is it
- once concentration of solute reaches point that all carrier proteins are saturated, then can no longer reabsorb and it will be excreted
What happens in nephron
- PCT
- descending LOH
- ascending LOH
- DCT
- CT: what kind of cells and what do they do
- most active reabsorption -> glucose, AA, water, Na, bicarb, potassium, Ca, mg, phosphate, vitamins, and secretion of ammonia
- permeable to water
- only permeable to electrolytes (Na, K, 2 Cl, Ca, Mg)
- Na and water permeability -> reg by aldosterone and ADH; if PTH around then increase Ca and Bicarb reabsorption
- alpha intercalated (secrete H+ and reabsorb HCO3), beta intercalated (secrete HCO3 and reabsorb H)
Structures involved in osmostic gradient
- loop
- vasa recta
- collecting ducts
- created gradient
- preserves gradient
- use gradient
Aldosterone
- function
- how
- increase Na and H2O re absorption and secrete K
- increase synthesis and concentration of Na/K pumps
ADH
- function/ how
- what kind of pathway is used
- effect of EtOH
- stimulates V1 (vasoconstriction) and V2 (production and insertion of AQ2 through Gs pathway -> increased water reabsorption)
- supresses release -> produce high volume of dilute volume -> peeing out lots of water -> dehydrating -> makes you want to drink more
Diuretics
- carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
- osmostic
- loops
- Thiazides
- ADH antagonist
- in PCT
- PCT
- LOH
- DCT
- CT
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
- MOA
- examples
- indications: mountain sickness, glaucoma, stones
- SE
- prevent H and bicarb from being made from carbonic acid -> H cant get pushed into lumen and exhanged for Na -> if Na stays in lumen so will water -> Na combines with Bicarb in lumen and alkanalizes it causing acidosis in body
- acute mountain sickness -> the hypoxia causes edema and resp alkalosis -> will get rid of water and cause met acidosis balancing out the resp alkalosis and causing normal pH
- bicarb needed for production of aq humor
- met acidosis, renal stones (Ca and PHosphate bc of alkanalized urine), renal K wasting (bc Na-Biacarb formation causes decreased Na which increases renin); inhibits conversion of NH3 to NH4 -> hepatic encelopahty
- Acetazolamide
Loops
- MOA
- examples
- indications
- tox: OH DANG
- Bartter syndrome: what is it, looks like, BP
- blocks triple transporter -> osmotic gradient for water reabsorption decreased; also stimulate release of prostaglandins
- furosemide, torsemide, bumentanide or ethacrynic acid (non sulfa)
- CHF, pulm edema, edema, hypercalcemia, severe htn, forced diuresis for drug/chemical intoxication
- ototox, hypokalemia (both from triple transporter and renin), dehydration, allergy (sulfa -> also for preg bc of kernicterus), nephritis, gout (not peeing out uric acid); hypokalemic met alkalosis (bc once K gets too low it will trade K for H)
- triple transporter doesnt work, looks as if on loop but not, BP will be normal or low
Mannitol
- MOA
- where it works
- indication
- central pontine myelinolysis
- osmostic diuretic, pulls fluid from interstitum and intracellular spaces and moves back into lumen
- PCT and descending LOH
- increased intracranial pressures
- if given too fast will cause fluid to leave cells to go into vasc and if too fast will cause demyelination of pons -> locked in syndrome
Thiazides
- examples
- kind of drug
- secretion and location they work
- MOA
- electrolyte effects
- AE: effect on DM, affect on lipids
- indication
- HCTZ, chlorothiazide
- sulfa drug
- secreted into PCT but exert effects on DCT
- block Na-Cl symporter -> decrease water reabsorption
- increase Na/ Cl excretion, decrease Ca excretion, inhibit uric acid secretion (watch out for gout), increase Mg excretion
- sex dysfunction, worsening of DM (Na/ Cl not reabsorbed -> low Na -> increase in renin -> low K -> no depolarization in beta cells -> Ca not allowed into cell and no insulin release); insulin blocks hormone sensitive lipase and since there is decrease in insulin then will have release of stored triglycerides
- HTN, CHF, edema, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Potassium Sparing Diretics
- MOA
- aldosterone antagonist
- when are they used
- benefit of spironolactone
- indications
- contraindications
- AE
- Na channel inhibitor -> Na and water excretion -> K spared; amiloride, triaterne
- no increase in Na/ K atpase; spironolactone
- in combo w/ other diuretic bc it is weak diuretic, just helps to stop hypokalemia
- prevents myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis
- heart failure, aldosteronism caused by cirrhosis
- can never be taken with ACE i, and ARB (increase K by inhibiting RAAS), NSAID (decrease renin secretion), K+ supplementation
- hyperkalemia, gynecomastia, menstrual disturbances, decreased libido
SIADH
- what is it
- common cause
- effects on blood
- effect on urine
- TX
- increase ADH -> excessive water reabsorption in kidneys
- small cell lung CA; produces similar to ADH w/o negative feedback
- dilute blood -> hyponatremic, hypervolemic
- hypervolemia causes decrease of RAAS -> decrease reabsorption of Na and water -> so water begins to balance out but Na will still be low
- ADH antagonist -> conicaptan (v1 and v2) other vaptans only block V2; demeclocyline and lithium will inhibit action of ADH at some point distal to cAMP
Diabetes Inspidus
- sxs
- psychogenic: cause, dx, tx
- nurogenic: caused by, dx
- nephrogenic: caused by,
- managment
- tx
- polyuria and polydipsia
- excess fluid intake causing them to be hypervolemic and suppresses release of ADH (bc of defect in thirst mech of hypothalamus), restricting fluid for 24 hr will concentrate urine,
- post pit -> cannot secrete ADH; give synthetic ADH and will concentrate urine
- kidney cannot respond to ADH (lithium);
- admit -> do basline UA -> restrict water (if concentrates then psychogenic) -> give desmopressin (if [] then neurogenic but if no concentration then nephrogenic)
- thiazide -> pee out Na and water so slowly decrease serum Na and serum osmolarity so no more trigger for thirst
Compartments for water
- intracellular
- extracellular: includes
- 60%
- interstitial and plasma, 40%
Dehydrated pts
- never give
- correct tx
- when to give hypertonic
- hypertonic solution
- normal saline: push fluid into cell
- hyponatremic w/ sxs
How to answer body water questions
- loss of isotonic fluid: ex, what is affected
- gain of isotonic fluid: ex, what is affected
- loss hypotonic fluid: ex, what happens, fix
- gain of hypotonic fluid: ex, what happens
- gain of hypertonic fluid
- loss hypertonic fluid
- vomiting, diarrhea, hemorrhage; only vascular volume is decreased, concentration remains the same -> since concentration remains same fluid will not move
- administration of isotonic saline; only vascular space affected
- dehydration, DI, alcohol; osmolarity increases of blood -> water from cell move out to help, shrinkage of cells, give isotonic fluid
- water intoxication or giving hypotonic saline; fluid gain in vascular space, dilute blood, water moves into cell -> cellular swelling
- hypertonic saline, mannitol use; increase osmolarity in vasculature, fluid pulled from ICF into vascular -> cell shrinkage
- loop diuretics, thiazide diuretics, addisons dx; intravascular decreased and osmolality decreased, intracellular is more concentrated -> cell swelling
RAAS
- regulated by
- pathway
- when
- macula densa, intra-renal baro receptore, beta adrenergic pathway (B1)
- renin makes angiotensinogne turn into angiotensin I -> angiotensin I goes to lungs and is turned into angiotensin 2 by ACE -> angiotensin II will cause vasoconstriction and release of aldosterone (retention of Na, Cl and water)
- when in low fluid or low pressure state
