Loop of Henle (Muster) - W2 Flashcards
thin descending limb
permeable to water, not solutes
thin ascending limb
begins solute reabsorption, not permeable to water
How much sodium is reabsorbed in the thick ascending limb?
25%
What are the transporters on the luminal side of the thick ascending limb?
- NKCC2 - brings in Na, 2Cl, K+
- ROMK - K+ recycling into lumen
what are the transporters on the basolateral side of the thick ascending limb?
- K+ and Cl- symporter
- Cl- and K+ recycling
- 2K/3Na pump
How are calcium and magnesum reabsorbed in the thick ascending limb?
How much of each is reabsorbed?
- move paracellularly - driven by higher + charge in lumen.
- 20% calcium
- 50-60% magnesium
What 2 things can upregulate NKCC2?
- Angiotensin II
- Vasopressin
What are the genetic mutations in the thick ascending limb- what syndrome can this cause?
- Bartter syndrome
- depends on which genetic mutation for if it presents early or later in life
- causes growth and mental issues
- volume depletion
- low blood pressure
- hypokalemia
- metabolic acidosis
- hypercalciuria
What is a drug that blocks the NK2Cl channel?
lasix
What are the channels on the luminal side of the distal convoluted tubule?
- Na+/Cl- symporter = NCC channel
- TRPV5 - brings in calcium
What are the channels on the basolateral side of the distal convoluted tubule?
- Cl-
- K+/Cl- symporter
- K+ recycling
- Na+ in/Ca2+ out antiporter
- ATPase
How much of each is absorbed in the distal convoluted tubule?
sodium
calcium
magnesium
Sodium = 5%
Calcium = 7-10%
Magnesium = 10%
What is the disease that results if the NaCL transporter in the distal convoluted tubule doesn’t work?
Symptoms?
-
Gitleman Syndrome
- normal bp
- metabolic acidosis
- HYPOcalciuria
- HYPOmagnesemia
- HYPOkalemia
What drug can manipulate the Na-Cl channel?
hydrochlorothiazide
Describe the principle cell of the collecting duct?
- Principle cell
- salt, chloride reabsorption
- potassium exceretion
