renal 2 Flashcards
what can happen to tubular fluid after filtration
Reabsorption and secretion
what are the modes of transport in secretion and reabsorption
Transcellular (through tubular cells)
Paracellular (between tubular cells
what is the diffusion of water
Osmosis
what regulates the rate of osmosis in membrane transport
Aquaporins
what type of trasnport proteins are found in faciliated diffusion
Ion channels Transport proteins - uni - symp - anti
what are the types of vesicular transport
Endocytosis
Exocytosis
where can Sodium be reabsorbed in the nephron
All but one segment
- ocurs in:
- the proximal tubule(most)
- ascending limbs of loop of henle
- distal tubule
- collecting duct
how does Glucose and amino acids get reabsorbed in the proximal tubule
Glucose and amino acids reabsored using Na symporters
what keeps intracellular Na low in the proximal tubule
active transport on the basal side
how does water and solutes move in the proximal tubule
paracellular transport to keep the osmolarity of the tubular fluid constant
what does Na reabsorption occur with
With bicarbonate reabsorption using an Na/H antiporter
how is Bicarbonate reabsorbed
Not direct since H seceretion leads to HCO3 reabsorption
how is H secretion related to HCO non direct reabsorption
- Ca reaction produces H and HCO3 in tubule cell
- HCO3 transported into blood
- H transported into tubular fluid where it recombines with filtered HCO3
why is it important that the proximal tubular has transporters for organic cations and anions
to secrete drugs that are often organic ionic compounds, often bound to plasma proteins(not filtered)
- need to be secreted
what is the pro/con of transporters in the proximal tubule for drugs
low specificity so do lots of drugs, but are easily saturated
what all is resorbed in the proximal tubule
2/3 Na, Cl, water, and small proteins by endocytosis
K and divalent cation reabsored by solvent drag
All amino acids and glucose reabsored
Bicarbonate reabsored due to Na/H transporter
what all is secreted in the proximal tubule
Organic ions (Drugs)
what is reabsorbed in the loop of henle
25% of filtered Nacl
15% of water reabsorbed
what can and cannot pass through the descending thin limb
impermeable to slat
Permeable to water
what can and cannot pass through the ascending thin limb
impermeable to water
permeable to salt
how does reabsorption occurin the thin desending and ascending limb
passive
what happens to the fluid in the ascending thick limb
Fluid is diluted
what transport protein is found in the apical membrane in the ascending thick limb
Na, K, 2Cl symporter (goes into the cells)
what transport protein is found in the basolateral membrane in the thick ascending limb
Na K ATPase (Na out of cell, K into cell)
does solvent drag pull monovalents and divalents in the tick ascending limb
No, paracellular transport
how does paracellular transport occur in the thick ascending limb
tubular fluid becomes positive when Cl reabsored
- cations diffuse along electrical gradient
what is the concentration of solutes in the loop
Hyopsmotic
how does fluid leveling the loop become hyperosmotic urine
Countercurrent mechanisms to create an osmotic gradient
what hormone leads to concentration of tubular fluid
acting of ADH/Vasopressin in the collecting duct
what are peritubular capillaries pereable to
NaCl and water
what happens to plasma osmolarity as the capillaries follow the loop
changes, but eventually leaves in a vein as a normal osmolarity
