Kidney- Sodium, Chloride and Water Flashcards

1
Q

How does the kidney handle sodium ions to change ECF volume?

A

To increase ECF it will increase Na+ reabsorption

To decrease ECF it will decrease reabsorption - i.e. increase excretion

Q

How do we change the volume of water in the body?

A

Move ions and water follows

If you move water alone you effect osmolality and we don’t want that in a sheer volume problem

Q

How does sodium re-uptake change along the DCT?

A

Early DCT sodium reabsorption is by the NaCl symporter

Late DCT still has NaCl but also has ENaC which is also seen in the collecting duct.

Q

What would happen if we didn’t regulate the sodium reabsorption and thus the excretory rate of sodium to the ECF?

A

Very salty meal would cause a rise in circulating volume and if an individual became alt depleted BP would drop

28
Q

What is transcellular absorption?

A

movement through the cell into the blood from the lumen

29
Q

Where does paracellular secretion?

A

Movement in between the cells into the tubule

30
Q

What is the glomerulus?

Capillary tuft

31
Q

Which aqua porin channels are seen in the PCT?

A

AQP1 anf AQP7

32
Q

The collecting duct has which 3 aqua porin channels?

A

AQP2,3,4

33
Q

Which area of the kidney solely expresses AQP 1 channels?

A

Descending limb

34
Q

In the ascending limb which aqua porins do you find?

A

NONE

35
Q

How does chloride mainly get reabsorbed?

A

Transcellular (active) — some passive paracellular

36
Q

Which transporters in the PCT help Na+ absorption by being present on the apical membrane ?

A

Na-H antiporter
Na-Glucose symporter
Na-AA co-transporter
Na-Pi

37
Q

Which symporter reabsorbs sodium on the apical membrane in the Loop of Henle (ascending limb)?

A

NaKCC

Sodium Potassium Chloride Chloride (symporter)

38
Q

Where in the tubule is the NaCl symporter on the apical membrane responsible for sodium reabsorption?

A

Early DCT

39
Q

Which sodium transporter is important for variable Na+ absorption in the late DCT and the collecting duct?

A

ENaC

40
Q

In the first section of the PCT which apical transporters move sodium?

A

S1 - fast preferntial absorption with glucose, amminoacids, and phosphate , antiported with hydrogen.

41
Q

Outline the basolatteral sodium transporters in S1 of the PCT.

A

Sodium Potassium pump

NaHCO3- cotransporter

42
Q

How does water move in the PCT?

A

Follows water by aquaporin 1 and 7

43
Q

What happens to chloride and urea in s1 of the PCT?

A

Flow into the tubule to compensate for the loss of glucose

important Cl- gradient establishes to flow back in S2 and S3

44
Q

Outline the tubular cells of S2 and S3 in the PCT.

A

The apical membrane reabsorbs sodium by NaH antiporter.
The H+ in the tubule binds HCOO-, this HCOOH can flow back into the cell. This will dissociate in the cell. Net effect we’ve moved HCOO- into the cell.
The H+ in the cell will flow out by the NaH antiporter. The HCOO- will be antiported with Cl-

Cl- and K+ are symported on the basolateral membrane into the blood.
Na+ is antiproton into the blood and potassium moves back into the cell.

Cl- will move paracellularly as well

45
Q

In S2, S3 whats the osmotic gradient for water movement?

A

Favours water uptake from the lumen by 4mOsmol

46
Q

In the late PCT which cells can be reabsorbed paracellularly and why?

A

Cl- and Na+

Cl- becomes major anion in the lumen as HCO3- is reabsorbed

47
Q

Which capillaries surround the PCT?

A

peritubular

48
Q

What drives reabsorption in the PCT?

A

Osmotic gradient established as solute reabsorption happens. (interstitial becomes hypertonic and get a raised hydrostatic pressure)
The Oncotic pressure of the capillary is increased because 20% of volume lost at glomerulus.

49
Q

How does water move out of the descending limb?

A

Passively- thin flat epithelium and no tight junctions + AQP1

50
Q

Which part of the loop of Henle is active?

A

Ascending limb- tight junctions and totally impermeable to water

51
Q

What happens in the thin ascending limb to sodium?

A

Passive reabsoprtion. (water doesn’t move here but its because of the water reabsorption in the descending limb that sodium can now move passively here)

52
Q

What tonocity is the filtrate from the descending limb?

A

Water left but no sodium so hyperosmotic

53
Q

The NKCC2 transporter moves all these ions into the cell in the TAL from the lumen, how do they move at the basolatteral membrane and which ion is secreted back into the lumen?

A

K+ secreted by ROMK and Maxi-K (keeps NKCC2 working)
Cl-/K+ simper into blood
Sodium potassium pump
Chloride channel in basolateral membrane

54
Q

Which segment is the diluting segment?

A

ascending - no water is being reabsorbed but NaCl is leaving

55
Q

After filtrate leaves the Loop of Henle what is its tonicity compared to plasma?

A

Hypo-osmotic- its just moved though the diluting segment

56
Q

How does the early DCT dilute urine?

A

Active Na+ absorption

57
Q

Which hormone effects how much water and sodium we take up in the DCT and CD?

A

ADH

58
Q

Which diuretic effects the early DCT and late DCT?

A

Thaiazides inhibit the NaCl cotranspoter in the apical membrane

59
Q

Which diuretic inhibits ENaC?

A

Amiloride

60
Q

Where is the major site of calcium reabsoption?

A

DCT

NCX exchanger is responsible and this is tightly regulated by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and PTH

61
Q

Outline the transporters seen in the collecting duct.

A

Aquaporin, Na, K and Cl uniporters on the apical (K moves into lumen everything else into cell)
BAsolateral memebrane has the sodium pump and then Cl- and K+ uriporters into the blood

62
Q

What percentage of collecting duct cells are principles and what sodium transporter do they hold?

A

70%
ENaC like late DCT (DCT2) - driven by basolateral NaKATPase
This active Na+ movement sets up paracellular Cl- gradient and lets K+ secretion occur

63
Q

What are intercalated cells and where do you find them?

A

Collecting duct cells that actively reabsorb Cl-, secrete H+ or HCO3- dependent on pH
two types
AIC- acid secreting
BIC- bicabonate secreting

64
Q

Which transporter on the AIC allows for secretion of H+?

A

H+ ATPase

65
Q

How does bicarbonate move in the CD?

A

Type B intercalated cells can take HCO3- in from the lumen with Na+ and extrude Cl- by the NDCBE.
Pendrin lets Cl- extrusion and HCO3- absorptrion by the exchanger.
In the basolateral membrane is we need to become more basic we reabsorb bicarbonate and sodium together by AE4
