Renal Flashcards
% NaCl, H2O, Ca++ reabsorbed in proximal tubule
67% (entire proximal tubule)
2 solutes that are filtered and secreted
K+ and Urea
% HCO3 reabsorbed in proximal tubule
85-99%
% Urea reabsorbed in proximal tubule
50%
% Phosphate reabsorbed in proximal tubule
85%
% Magnesium reabsorbed in proximal tubule
30%
% Amino Acids and Glucose reabsorbed in proximal tubule
100%
Carbonic Anhydride Inhibitor
Mild Diuretic - inhibits HCO3 reabsorption and therefore Na+ reabsorption
Early proximal tubule
NaHCO3 reabsorption
Accounts for 20-25% Na+ reabsorption
Late Proximal Tubule
NaCl Passive Reabsorption
~35% Na+ reabsorption
Concentrated Cl due to water, Na+, Urea, etc. reabsorption.
Glomerulotubular Balance
Ensures that constant fraction of filtered Na+ (67%) is reabsorbed via filtration/reabsorption coupling
If GFR rises or falls, the rate of tubular reabsorption will rise or fall proportionally,
