proportion of plasma filtered
20%
which arteriole does Ang II constrict
efferent
two parts of autoregulation
myogenic response
tubuloglomerular feedback
actions of ang II
constrict efferent arteriole
Na reabsorption prox tubule
actions of aldosterone
Na reabsorption collecting duct - Na/K ATPase and Na channels
symp actions in kidney
constricts afferent arteriole ( bad) so stimulates juxtaglomerular cells to secrete renin
atrial natriuretic peptide actions
dilates afferent arteriole
decreases Na reabsorption in collecting duct
inhibits secretion of renin
what are granular cells
juxtaglomerular cells - renin
reabsorption in kidney tubules
Na/K sets up gradient - Na into cells
anions follow electrochemical gradient
water moves by osmosis
rest of solutes follow
SGLUT
Na/glucose transporter
stimulators of renin release
decreased BP at afferent arteriole
decreased Na delivery to macula densa
symp
vasopressin release due to
normally increase in osmolarity
ECF volume if <15% normal
medullary concentration gradient mostly due to
Na and urea
compensations for resp acidosis
kidney - reabsorb bicarb and secrete H
compensations for metabolic aklalosis (vom)
kidney - secrete bicarb
lungs - decrease resp drive
bicarb reabsorption and acid secretion
Na/H symporter secretes H into lumen (proportional to blood CO2)
H combine with HCO3- in lumen, converted to CO2 and H2O by carbonic anhydrase on luminal cell surface
CO2 and H2O diffuse into cells, converted back to bicarb and H by carbonic anhydrase –> bicarb reabsorbed and H secreted again
When reabsorbed all bicarb, H in lumen builds up in lumen and excreted
Lumen has min pH of 4.4, after this H needs a carrier
So glutamine is metabolised to ammonium ion and bicarb –> bicarb reabsorbed (creating bicarb) and ammonium ion secreted and binds with H and excreted
If build up of bicarb in lumen bc used up all H, get loss fo bicarb (e.g. metabolic alkalosis)
type A intercalated cell
collecting duct - functions in acidosis to pump out H with H/K ATPase
side effect (K) of metabolic acidosis
get hyperkalaemia bc type A intercalated cell pumping out H with H/K ATPase so get uptake of K
type B intercalated cell
collecting duct - functions in alkalosis to transport out bicarb with bicarb/Cl antiporter
some causes of metabolic acidosis
chronic renal failure
chronic diarrhoea
starvation - keto acids (diabetes)
why is creatinine could measure of GFR
because constant production, not reabsorbed
little bit remains bound to plasma proteins (so not filtered) but also little bit secreted so these balance out
oliguria
decreased urine output
polyuria
increased urine output
where do ICC cells lie
next to myenteric plexus
what do vagovagal reflexes control
vagus - swallowing, acid secretion, stomach and duo contractions
