Renal Flashcards
When is the ureteric bud fully canalized?
10wk
What do the
pronephros
mesonephros
metanephros become?
Pronephros- degenerates
Mesonephros- male gential system (interim kidney for 1st trimester)
Metanephros- filtration portion of kidney
Where does the ureteric bud start?
collecting duct
What presents as limb deformities, facial anomalies, low-set ears, retrognathia
Potter sequence (oligohydramnios)
What vessel does a horeshoe kidney get trapped under?
IMA
What is the cause of multicystic dysplastic kidney?
abnormal interaction between ureteric bud and metanephric mesenchyme
What percentage of body weight is
- total body water
- ICF
- ECF?
60% total body water
40% ICF
20% ECF
What are is used to measure plasma volume? ECF?
plasma volume- radiolabeled albumin
ECF- inulin
How is clearance calculated?
Cx=UxV/Px
What is a normal GFR?
100ml/min
What is used to calculate GFR? RPF?
GFR- inulin, creatinine clearance
RPF- PAH
What is FF? What is a normal value?
FF=GFR/RPF
normal= 20%
What is the effect of Ang II on RPF/GFR/FF? Why is this?
Ang II preferentially restricts efferent arteriole
decr RPF, incr GFR, incr FF
What is the effect of prostaglandin on RPF/GFR/FF? Why is this?
prostaglandins dilate afferent arterioles
incr RPF, incr GFR, FF constant
What is the threshold of glucosuria? When are transporters fully saturated?
threshold- 200mg/dL
saturated- 375 mg/dl
What presents as a pellagra-like disease with neutral amminoaciduria?
Hartnup disease
What is the treatment of Hartnup disease?
High protein diet and nicotinic acid
What does effect does Ang II have on kidney absorption?
PCT- stimulates Na/H exchange- incr abs Na, H20, HCO3
What do loop diuretics work on?
NaKCC of thick ascending loop of Henle
How do loop diuretics affect absorption of Mg, Ca?
diminish + potential in thick ascending limb
Mg2+, Ca2+ no longer diffuse down gradient (decr reabsorption)
What are the effects of PTH on the kidney?
inhibit Na/PO4 cotransport in PCT
incr Ca/Na exchange in DCT
What renal tubular defect presents as metabolic acidosis, glucosuria, amnioaciduria?
Fanconi syndrome
What is defective in Fanconi syndrome?
Reabsorptive defect in PCT
What renal tubular defect presents as hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, and hypercalciuria?
Bartter syndrome
What renal tubular defect presents as hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, no hypercalciuria?
Gitelman syndrome
What renal tubular defect presents as hypertension, hypokalemia, metabolic acidosis, decr aldost?
Liddle syndrome
What is the treatment of Liddle syndrome?
Amiloride
What is defective in Bartter syndrome?
Na/K/CC in thick ascending loop of Henle
What is defective in Liddle syndrome?
Incr Na+ reabsorption in distal and collecting tubules (aut dom- incr ENac activity)
What is defective in Gitelman syndrome?
Reabsorptive defect of NaCl in DCT
What is the autonomic stimulation of the kidney?
Incr sympathetic tone (B1 receptors)
incr renin secretion
What effect does AT II have on baroreceptor reflect?
limits reflex bradycardia
What is the stimulus and effect of ANP?
stimulus- incr volume in atria
effect- relaxes smooth muscle via cGMP- incr GFR, decr renin
What cells secrete EPO?
interstitial cells in peritubular capillary bed
