hard questiosn urinary Flashcards
units of osmolarity
osm/l
how is countercurrent multiplication achieved
active salt resorption in thick limb, passive water reabsorption in decending loop
where is uta2
thing descending limb
2 pruposes of urea recycling
less water wasted
allows urine concentratio n
stimulatory factos for vasopressin
neausea
osmolarity up, bp down
angiotensin 2
nicotine
inhibitory factors for vasopressin
low osmolarity, bp up
anp
ethanol
mechanism of adh action
binds to v2 on collecting duct
g protein signalling
protein kinase a
aquaporins to membrae
what transporters are present in the dct
na/cl co
na/k atpase
na/ca
principal cell transporters
enac
na/k atpase
effects of adh on channels
increase aps uta1 and uta3 triple transpoter na/cl enac
how is siadh treated
vaptans
outline how the kidsney produces new hco3
glutamine - 2hco3
2 nh4
out as nh3 or as nh4 via na/h transporter
what is the role of phospahte in the dct
allows h to be neutralised without wasting hco3
what is the henderson hesselbach equation
[h+] = (24 x pCO 2)/ [HCO3]
What suppresses salt intake
glutamate and serotonin in the lateral parabrachial nucleus
how does the relationship betwwen rpf and gfr plateau
high tubular sodium, increased na/cl uptake
adenosine released from macula densa
detected by extraglomerular mesangial cells
less renin
afferent smc contact
role of the b1 sympathetics
increase na uptake
stimulate renin from juxtaglomerular cells
contract afferent arteriole
how is renin stimulated
less firing from juxtaglomerular cells
what is anp
a vasodilator
how does aldosterone work
binds to mineralocorticoid receptor hsp90 dissociates dimeriss into nucleus transcription
3 effects of aldosteroen
h out
na/k
enac
symptoms oh hypoaldosteronism
syncope
low bp
salt cravings
palpitation
symptoms of hyperaldosteronism
hypertension
muscle weaknes
polyuria
thirst
3 low pressure receptors
atria
right ventricles
pulmoary vasculature
3 high pressure receptors
carotid sinus
aortic arch
juxtaglomerular apperatus
where does anp bind
guanalyl cyclase
