22
Q

range of K+ excretion

A

1-110%

23
Q

alpha intercalated cells K+ transporters

A

blood end: Na+/K+ ATPase
lumen end: H+/K+ cotransporter
and leak K+ channel

24
Q

what happens to K+ at alpha intercalated cells of late distal tubule and collecting duct

A

reabsorption

25
Q

K+ transporters of principal cells

A

blood end: Na+/K+ ATPase
lumen end: ROMK (aldo stimulation)

26
Q

what happens at principal cells of late distal tubule and collecting duct

A

K+ secretion depending on Na+ absorption

27
Q

3 main factors contributing to K+ secretion

A

high K+ intake
aldosterone
tubular flow rate

28
Q

during K+ secretion, what side of cell has greatest concentration of K+; why?

A

lumen>serum; increased luminal fluid flow

29
Q

what is the result of alkalosis when H+ is lost to buffering (what happens to K+)

A

K+ uptake increases along with secretion
result: hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis

30
Q

3 main organs dealing w/ Ca2+ homeostasis

A

gut
bone
kidney

31
Q

regulates Ca2+ absorption from diet

A

gut

32
Q

major depository of Ca2+ w/ buffering capacity

A

bone

33
Q

final arbiter of Ca2+ by excretion or conservation

A

kidney

34
Q

3 forms of circulating Ca2+

A
  1. ion bound
  2. protein bound
  3. free or ionized
35
Q

active form of circulating Ca2+ that is the regulated component

A

free or ionized form

36
Q

regulators of Ca2+

A

PTH
active vitamin D

37
Q

when there is low levels of Ca2+, what happens

A

PTH and active vitamin D activate

38
Q

what 3 responses happen to low Ca2+

A

increase in Ca2+ absorption in intestine and kidneys
increase in Ca2+ release from bones

39
Q

where the free Ca2+ is filtered (60%)

A

glomerulus

40
Q

41
Q

Ca2+ coupled to Na+ absorption and passively moves to blood here

A

thick ascending limb

42
Q

Ca2+ absorption regulated by PTH here

A

A

PTH

45
Q

constituent of bone and urinary buffer for H+ excretion

A

phosphate

46
Q

PTH’s effect on PCT

A

blocks Na+/phosphate cotransporter (brings both into cell) and causes their excretion

47
Q
