Renal Flashcards
ADH stimulation

Inc osmolality (sensed ant hypothalamus)
AT 2 around 3rd and 4th vents
Morphine
Barbiturates
Nicotine
Stress
Nausea and vomiting
Carbamazapine
ADH inhibition
Water
Alcohol
Cortisol
ANP
Lithium
Domeclocycline
Adr
ADH on kidney
Decreases blood flow to renal medulla
Vasoconstrictor at high concs
Increases inner medulla collecting dict permeability to aurea
Increases cd permeability to water
Maximum renal glucose resorbtion
300-375mg/m
Resorption via sodium glucose co transporter SGLT2 (secondary active)
Then GLUT2 on basolateral
Gluconeogenesis in renal cortex
Filtration fraction
GFR/RPF
0.2
Proportion if fluid reaching kidneys that passes into renal tubules
Increased by catecholamines
Decreased by diuretics
Angiotensin II effects
Arteriolar constriction
Aldosteron secretion
Mesengial cell constriction causing decreased GFR
Increased ADH
Increased ACTH
Decreased barreflex
Inc thirst
Norad release
less effective hypoNa and cirrhosis
Urea filtration kidney
Freely filtered
Half resorbed pct
Half secreted back into LOH
Half resorbed back CD
Mesangial cells
extraglomerular - part of JGA, lacis cells
Intraglomerular - structure, contract reduce GFR, phagocytic, secrete PGs and ECM
PCT
resorption 100% glucose SGLT2 cotransporter
65% NaCl +H20, K
60% calcium
80% bicarbonate
50% urea
H2 secreted (majority)
Ammonia produced and excreted
Small proteins and peptide hormones reabsorbed through endocytosis
Ascending LOH
25% sodium reabsorbed
20% potassium
chloride resorbed
calcium resorbed via PTH
50% urea secreted
Loop diuretic Na/K/2Cl
DCT
5% sodium resorbed
Thiazides inhibit Na Cl cotransporter
Potassium secreted
hypotonic
CDs
5% sodium resorbed - P cells regulated by aldosterone (ENaC)
Water reabsorbed (ADH)
Potassium secrete
50% urea resorbed (CD)
Renin inhibition
increased Na/Cl resorbtion macula densa
ADH
ATII
Beta blockers
ANP
Increased afferent arteriolar pressure
Baroreceptor firing
Measure renal blood flow
25%CO
Ficks principle used
PAH used
excreted not metabolised, does not affect flow
90% cleared from circulation
constriction afferent arteriole kidney
adenosine
Glomerular pressure
if MAP 100, glomerular cap 45
peritubular cap 8
renal vein 4
Regulation renal blood flow
ATII constricts afferent + efferent
Norad - afferent + interlobular
Adenosine - afferent
Dop and ACh - vasodilation
PGs - increased flow cortex, reduced medulla
Protein rich diet - increased renal blood flow, inc cap pressure
Symp action on kidneys
Beta 1 JGA -> renin release -> Na resorption
Norad afferent and interlobular vasoconstriction
High stimulus -> alpha vasoconstriction, reduced RBF and GFR(RBF>GFR)
Coretx vs medulla
cortex high blood flow low O2 demand
Medulla opposite, prone to ischemia
Contraction/ relaxation mesangial cells
contract - ATII
Relax - dopamine, cAMP, ANP, PGE2
Renal plasma flow
volume of blood plasma to kidneys/ unit time
600ml/m
Renal plasma clearance
Volume of plasma from which substance completely cleared / unit time
Tx kidneys
Amount of substance transferred into tubules in kidney
0 = GFR inulin
+ve exceeds GR e.g. PAH
-ve less than GFR e.g. glucose
Sodium transporters PCT
Co: SGLT2, phosphate, AA, lactate
Exchange: Na/H, Cl/base
Sodium transporters LOH asc
Co: Na/K/2Cl
Exchange; Na/H
Channel: K excretion
DCT and CD sodium
DCT NaCl cotransporter
CD ENaC
Aquaporins
1 - blm pct 70% resorption
desc lop 15%
2 - ADH on CD medulla, apical surface 15%
Counter-current mechanism
mechanism for kidney to conc urine
multiplier: Na pumped pumped out asc LOH, water absorbed from desc LOH
exchanger: vasa recta absorb water
Urea kidney
helps establish osmotic grad medulla
distal PCT Resorbed by facilitated diffusion UTa1-4 - up regulated by ADH
Resorbed PCT 50%
Secreted into LOH 50%
Resorbed CD 50%
40-50%% in urine
Regulation Na excretion
main determinant ECF volume
96-99% resorbed
Aldosterone up regs ENaC on principle cells - more resorbed
ANP down regulates ENaC
ATII causes Na and HCO3 resorb PCT
