Q

Albumin has a MW of about 68,000. Significance?

A

Substances must be below 60,000 MW to pass through glomerulus

17
Q

Equation for GFR

A

[Urine volume x [Inulin]urine (mg/ml)] / [inulin]plasma

18
Q

If inulin is infused into a vein :

concentration in the urine is 30 mg/ml,

concentration in plasma is .5 mg/ml,

rate of urine formation is 2ml/min.

What is GFR?

A

2ml/min x 30 mg/ml=

60mg/min /.5 mg/ml =

120 ml/min

19
Q

Normal GFR is

A

115-125 ml/min

20
Q

Which substances are passively reabsorbed?

Which are actively?

A

Which substances are passively reabsorbed? H2O, Cl-, Urea,

Which are actively? Glucose, Na+, AAs, Cl-

21
Q

The transport maximum(Tm) for _______is 375 mg/min. If plasma levels are above 375 mg/min, it will be excreted in the urine.

A

The transport maximum(Tm) for glucose is 375 mg/min. If plasma levels are above 375 mg/min, it will be excreted in the urine.

22
Q

If someone has 3.5 mg/ml glucose in blood and has GFR of 125 ml/min will there be glucose in the urine? How much?

A

3.5 mg/ml x125 ml/min= 438 mg/min

438-375(Tm)= 63 mg/ml urine

23
Q

In Tubular secretion what three main substances are secreted into the lumen?

A

H+ ions, K+ ions, penicillin

24
Q

_______limb actively transports negatively charged Cl- out of the tubular fluid into the medullary insterstitium, Na+ follows beacuse of the charge.

A

Ascending limb actively transports negatively charged Cl- out of the tubular fluid into the medullary insterstitium, Na+ follows beacuse of the charge.

25
Q

The ascending limb is impermiable to _______

A

The ascending limb is impermiable to water

26
Q

Fluid in the ascending limb becomes more _______

A

Fluid in the ascending limb becomes more dilute

27
Q

ADH

A

Low levels ADH- distal tubules and collecting ducts become impermiable to water= dilute urine

High levels- highly permiable- concentrated urine

28
Q

Calculate clearance of inulin

Urine formation= 1 ml/min

Urine [inulin]=12.5 mg/ml

Plasma [inulin]= .1 mg/ml

A

1 ml/min X 12.5 mg/ml= 12.5mg/min

12.5 / .1 mg/ml= 125 ml/min

29
Q
