Renal 5 - Regulation of Tubular Reabsorption Flashcards
what is tubular reabsorption controlled by
local control mechanisms, nervous system and endocrine system
what are the local control mechanisms of tubular reabsorption
-tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF)
- glomerulotubular balance (GTB)
-pressure natriuresis/diuresis
what hormones control tubular reabsorption
- aldosterone
-ANG II - ADH
-ANP
-PTH
what division of the nervous system regulates tubular reabsorption
sympathetic nervous system
what does the TGF response do
autoregulation of GFR to keep it constant
what does the TGF response consist of
afferent and efferent arteriolar resistance related to flow rate of NaCl by macula densa
what does the GTB regulate
autoregulation of PT reabsorption rate related to tubular load
in GTB, as tubular load increases, the rate of reabsorption _____
increases
what does GTB depend on
changes in peritubular capillary and renal interstitial fluid starlings forces
what do TGF and GTB do together
prevent overloading of the distal tubule segment when GFR increases due to pressure changes or other disturbances
-assures homeostasis is maintained
what can small changes in MAP do to Na+ and water excretion
can cause large increases in their excretion
what do pressure natriuresis and pressure diuresis do
assure that large changes in salt and water intake only cause small changes in ECF volume, CO and MAP
what are the stimuli for aldosterone
-high [ANG II] in ECF
- high [K+] in ECF
- low blood pressure
- low Na+
what are the effector responses for aldosterone
-stimulates Na+ reabsorption
- stimulates K+ secretion
-increases H+ secretion by intercalated cells of late distal and cortical collecting tubule: excess aldosterone may cause metabolic acidosis
- increases Na+ reabsorption and K+ secretion by sweat and salivary glands
- increases Na+ absorption by intestine
what cells does aldosterone act on
principal cells
