Renal 1 Flashcards
secretion vs. reabsorption
secretion: moving from system into glomiluar filtrate
reabsorption: from renal tubule into system
secretion vs. reabsorption
secretion: moving from system into glomiluar filtrate
reabsorption: from renal tubule into system
Renal activity major influencer of ____ and ____ fluid compartments
ECF and ICF
filtrate not urine until hits
ureter
Total boday water TBW broken into 2 categories
ECF 1/3
ICF 2/3
ECF broken into 3 categories
- interstitial fluid 3/4
- plasma 1/4
- transcellular fluid .5 liters
provides immediate environment around cell
ECF–responsible for health of individual cells
_____ plays major part in composition of ECF
kidneys
7 rolls of kidneys
- excretion of metabolic waste
- regulation of H2O/ electrolyte balance
- Regulate body fluid osmolarity
- Regulate arterial pressure
- Regulate acid/base balance–excretion of “fixed” acids
- Regulate erythrocyte production via erythropoietin- ^ HgB
- Influence Ca/ Phosphorus/ Vit D metabolic pathways
arterial pressure regulated by
- varying levels of Na+/H2O
2. direct and indirect effect of the Rennin-angiotensin-aldo system
Gen Kidney Functions 8
- osmotic press and volume
- ions
- Acid/Base
- BP
- waste removal
- Toxic compounds
- hormone production
- degrade hormones
Ca and Phosphorus move in ______ ________ in blood
opposite direction–seasaw
Functional unit of kidney
the nephron
____ kidney a little higher
left
outer layer of kidneys
cortex
______ and ______ calyx
major and minor
nephron composed of
- glomerulus–accompanying eff/aff arterial surrounded by Bowman’s capsule
- Renal tubules–
number of nephrons/ kidney
million
glomerulus produces
ultra filtrate of blood
renal tubules lined w/
epithelial cells function in reabsorption/ secration of:
water
electrolytes
and waste products
7 Areas of tubules
- proximal convoluted tubules
- proximal straight tubules
- thin descending limb of the loop of Henley
- thick ascending limp of LofH
- Early distal tubule and Macula densa
- distal convoluted tubule
- collection duct
second capillary network in the unusual arrangement of two capillary beds in series
peritubular capillary beds
kidneys engage in ________-allowing for consistant blood flow
autoregulation of blood flow–from roughly 60-180 torr–even for transplanted kidneys (not reliant on ANS)
**_______ ________ allows for autoregulation–watch video
jutaglomerular apparatus–macula densa cells at glomerular capillaries
_____% of blood presented to glomerulus is filtered
20%
filtrate is identical to serum plasma except missing
protein and other larger substances in serum plasma
GFR
glomerular filtration rate
ml/minute
renal pathophys
- DIABETES (main cause)
- HTN hypertension (^ African Americans–> kidney failure)
- glomerulunephritis
- UTI
if protein in urine
problem with glomerulus likely–podocytes damaged–> proteinuria
leakage of very large amounts of protein (albumin) from glomerulus resulting in massive proteinuria
nephrotic syndrome –> edema (lower oncotic pressure)
fenestrated filtering cells of glomerulus
podocytes
molecule used to test GFR
Inulin–Fick principle
small rises in serum creatinine may indicate
impairment or loss of function of majority of nephrons
constrict afferent blood flow
lower RBF
lower GFR
& visa versa for dilation
constrict efferent blood flow to glom
lower RBF
raise GFR
and visa versa for dilation
