Lec 28 Flashcards
pathway in nephron
1-bowman’s capsule
2- proximal tube
3- descending limb
4- ascending limb
5- distal tube
6- collecting duct
renal corpuscle is
glumerulus + bowman capsule
nephron is made up of —- cels
epithelial
different epithelial cell structure for diferrent regions of nephron
four processes of nephron
1- filtration – blood to nephron
2- reabsorption – lumen to blood
3- secretion – blood to lumen
4- excretion – lumen to outside of body
glomerulus in case of leaky
glomerulus is ultra leaky
how many liters per day glomerulus filter?
180 L/day
how many liters per day is excretion
1.5 L/day
what will be filtered
water
Na, K, Cl, Ca
glucose
urea
H+
creatinine
what generally will not be filtered
no RBC
no WBC
no protein
no cells
what will be reabsorbed
glucose
na
water
secretion
k+
H+
water reabsorption happen in
beginnig of collecting duct
how water reabsorption happen
vasopressin
1- insert water channel
2- insert aquaporin
–water reabsorption as needed by BP
amount of excretion formula
E = Filtered - Reabsorbed + secreted
Flitration fraction in glumerous
20% filters out
80% return via efferent arteriole
