Renal Flashcards
renal basic function is to do 5
filter maintain proper H2O and elyte balance maintain proper pH of blood secrete EPO activate vit D
filtrate proximal tubule: what should be completely removed?
Glucose, protein, amino acids
Proximal tubule what declines?
HCO3
Proximal tubule what increases?
Creatinine and urea
filtrate loop of henle what do the elytes do?
all (HCO3, Cl, Na, K) all go up then down
Filtrate of distal tubule: what happens here?
fine tune, end with (most)Creatinine, Urea, K, Cl, Na, HCO3(least)
Baroreceptor mechanism where, does what
in afferent arterole
tells JG cell whether to release renin or not
increase PRESSURE- inhibit renin release
tubuoglomerular feedback SNS what receptor stimulates release of what?
B1 stimulation, renin release
macula densa mechanism
in distal Nephron
increase NaCl- inhibits renin release
reabsorption of glucose where and by what
proximal tubule by SGLT2
SGLT2 transporter does what
Na and glucose (apical)
GLUT2 transporter does what
gradient glucose transporter (basallateral)
Acid base
LOOK in your damn notes
bottom line kidneys either reabsorb HCO3 through that dumb equation or make a new one with glutamine metabolism
hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis how get to alk and tx
vomiting loss of Cl- so kidney increased the reabsorption of HCO3 to compensate for the loss of neg end up with Alkalosis
**give NaCl and K to stop HCO3 reabsorption.
K in the distal tubule how does it get places
Basolateral membrane: Na-K pump, reabsorb Na, kicks out K
Apical membrane: H and K exchanger: K in to lumen (pee out) if acidic won’t reabsorb H there for won’t kick out K
DI, have a problem with not enough what bc of what
not enough ADH 2nd to pituitary damamge
who responds to ADH and what happens when they don’t?
the collecting tubules, and if unresponsive then get neurogenic DI
renin is released when?
decreased blood flow to kidneys, decreased Na, activation of SNS to JG cells
Natriuretic peptides release when, causes what
atrial cell in heart are over stretched.
Results in loss of Na, H2O
Urodilation released when does what
when the distal and collecting tubule cells identify increased volume.
Results in loss of Na, H2O
24 hr helpful for what
varying concentrations
urine color: cloudy, brown
cloudy WBC
brown: RBC
WBC cast associated with
pyelonephritis
RBC cast associated with
glomerulonephritis
*in RBC think bigger injury bc RBCs are big
epithelial cells cast indicated what
sloughing of tubular cells, ATN
Creatinine and BUN: which one more reliable for what
Creatinine more reliable for renal function.
monitor progression of renal disease
Creatinine is what
the end product of muscle metabolism, excreted EXCLUSIVELY by kidney
Creatinine is affected by 2 factors
1 rate muscle produces it
2 rate kidney (GFR) excretes it
if no muscle breakdown, then creatinine is a constant.
increase- decreased function
