34
Q

Collecting ducts: site of what, controlled by what, other role

A

Water reabsorption in aquaporins through ADH. Acid base balance, a and b cells

35
Q

Mesangial cell: what it does, types

A

Smooth muscle cell that relaxes/contracts. Secretory and contractile types. Secretes stuff that makes extracellular matrix

36
Q

Pedicel

A

Cellular process of podocyte wrapped around capillary

37
Q

Bowman space: where, what happens to stuff here

A

Bw bowman capsule and glomerular capillaries. Goes to PCT and becomes filtrate

38
Q

What outside of glomerulus made from

A

Endothelial cells, fenestrations allow leak of solute through. Prevents movement of stuff through podocyte

39
Q

Mesangial cell: 4 roles

A

Structural support for glomerular capillaries, secretes matrix proteins, phagocytosis, regulates GFR

40
Q

Mesangial cells do what by contracting and relaxing

A

Alter surface area for filtration and GFR

41
Q

GFR determined by what

A

Filtration pressure in glomeruli and permeable surface of membrane

42
Q

What varies in glomerulus

A

Filtration pressure from afferrent to efferent end

43
Q

What affects filtration pressure and how

A

Blood volume. As it increases, gfr increases to excrete more fluid. And autoregulation

44
Q

How you calculate what is excreted

A

Filtered - reabsorbed + secreted

45
Q

How creatinine is processed

A

Freely filtered, goes to PCT not reabsorbed and goes to bladder

46
Q

Inulin tests what

A

GFR

47
Q

How glucose transported

A

Apical side- cotransporter with na

Basolateral- own concentration gradient

48
Q

Tmax glucose
Conc in plasma
Gfr

A

375 mg/min
80-100
1.25 dl/min

49
Q

How you calculate tmax

What renal threshold # is

A

Gfr x renal threshold

300 mg/dl

50
Q

Where most absorption occurs

A

Pct

51
Q

How much of what is filtered is reabsorbed

A

99%

52
Q

How most of flow occurs in PCT, what travels

A

Secondary active cotransporter, glucose, AA, phosphate, organic acids

53
Q

PCT apical transport

A

Na H antiporter

54
Q

PCT basolateral transport

A

Na K ATPase 3 Na out 2 K in

55
Q

What stimulates and inhibited reabsorption in PCT

A

Ang 2 and SNS stim, dopamine inhibits

56
Q

Descending limb permeable and impermeable to what

A

Water can go out, concentrates. Impermeable to na

57
Q

Where aldosterone works and what it does

A

Distal tubule and collecting duct, stim reabsorption

58
Q

Ascending limb transport

A

Apical na k 2 Cl cotransporter, na h antiporter

59
Q

Where thiazide drugs act

A

Distal tubule

60

63
Q

Bicarb: most reabsorbed where

A

Pct 80%

64
Q

What happens apical side and basolateral side to bicarb

A

Apical: reaction CA converts bicarb to co2 and water. Diffuse into cell. Converted back to carbonic acid in cell, bicarb transported out of cell by hco3 cl exchanger or na hco3 cotransporter. H back into lumen to reabsorb more hco 3

Concentrates urine and loop of henle

72
Q

Where and how baroreceptor works

A

Next to glomerulus. Senses what’s going on in DCT, affects renin release, decreased pressure promotes its release

73
Q
