Glomweular permeability
small mol w/ less than 15A free
15-35 possible depending on charge Cations preferred
large 35 or greater no filtration
Over all charge of pedicels
negative
Delta P
[(Pg+Pbc) -(Pbc +Pg)]
Eqn for GFR
Kf x Delta P
kf is a constant
normal GFR
90-140
Constrict afferent
Decrease Renal Plasma flow(RPF)
Decrease GFR
Dilate Afferent
Increase RPF
Increase GFR
Constrict Effernt
Decrease RPF
Increase GFR
Dilate Efferent
Increase RPG
Decrease GFR
Myogenic response
increase arterial pressure scratch sm in blood vessels induces constriction of afferent
increased GFR
Tubuloglomerulr feedback
