lecture 16 (T3)- Tubular reabsorption and secretion Flashcards
what must happen for a substance to be reabsorbed (it must first be transported):
- across the tubular epithelial membranes into the renal interstitial fluid
- through the peritubular capillary membrane back into the blood
what is wanter transported form the lumen through the tubular cells into the interstitial by
both transcellular and paracellular routes by osmosis
what are attributes of aquaporin-1
widespread, including renal tubulesq
what are attributes of aquaporin-2
present in apical membranes of collecting tubule cells
controlled by ADH
what are attributes of aquaporin-3
present in basolateral membranes of collecting tubule cells
what establishes ionic gradients across nephron cell membranes
ATPases
what are attributes of ENaC channel
found in apical membrane of nephron cells
closed by drug amiloride
opened by a number of hormones
where are CFTR (chloride channels) and K+ channels sometimes found on some segments of nephrons
apical membranes
what are uniporters in cell membranes driven by
concentration gradient of substance concerned
what is an transport occurring through channels or uniporters and an example
facilitated transport
ie: glucose transport
what is transport directly coupled to an energy source
active transport
what is transport that is coupled indirectly to an energy source
secondary active transport
what are examples of primary active transporters
Na+K+ ATPase
H+ ATPase
H+K+ ATPase
Calcium ATPase
what does SGLT2 do
reabsorbs 90% of glucose in early proximal tubule
what does SGLT1 do
reabsorbs 10% of glucose in late proximal tubule
what substances are actively secreted into the renal tubules
creatinine
para-aminohippuric acid
what is transport maximum due to
saturation of a specific transport system
what is transport maximum
limit to the rate at which the salute can be transported
what is the transport max for glucose
375 mg/min
what is the filtered load for glucose
125 mg/min
what are some reasons that some passively reabsorbed substances do not have a transport max
rate of diffusion is determined by electrochemical gradient of the substance
permeability of the membrane for the substance
time that the fluid containing the substance remains within the tubule
what does the rate of transport depend on
the electrochemical gradient
time the substance is in the tubule (depends on tubular flow rate)
define solvent drag
osmotic movement of water can also carry some solutes
passive water reabsorption by osmosis is coupled mainly to sodium reabsorption
what are characteristics of the proximal tubule
highly metabolic (large number mitochondria) extensive brush border on luminal surfaces extensive intercellular and basal channels on interstitial surfaces
what does the proximal tubule reabsorb
all filtered glucose and amino acids
65% of filtered sodium, chloride, bicarbonate and potassium
what does the proximal tubule secrete
organic acids, bases and hydrogen ions into tubular lumen
