28
Q

do carbonic anhydrase inhibitors have a big effect in the thick ascending limb?

A

no bc only 10% of H secr/bicarb reab happen here

compared to 80% in the PT

29
Q

what diuretics are preferred for loosing bone older women?

A

thiazide bc they lower intracellular Na and help increase Ca reabsor here

30
Q

what channel does Calcium go through in the distal tubule?

A

TRP channel

31
Q

what increases the expression of the TRP channel?

A

PTH

Vitamin D

32
Q

how does vitamin D help retain calcium

A

regulates calbindin that traps calcium inside of the cell and prevents excretion

33
Q

what are the two main things that happen in the distal cortical tubule/cortical collecting duct

A

3% Na reab

regulation of K, H/HCO3

34
Q

what does aldosterone do in the DCT/CCD?

A

increases ENaC, Na/K ATPase, K channel

35
Q

what does ADH do in the DCT/CCD?

A

increases ENaC, and AQP channels

36
Q

amiloride

A

blocks ENaC,
potassium sparing
moderately powerful

37
Q

two cell types in the DCT/CCD?

A

principal cells

type A intercalated cells

38
Q

what happens at the type A cell?

A

K reabsor

H secret

39
Q

when is H/K ATPase activity increased?

A

hypokalemia

leads to alkalosis

40
Q

what does AngII do in the PT?

A

stimulates NHE, Na/HCO3, and NaKATPase

41
Q

what does PTH and FGF23 inhibit in the PT?

A

Na/Pi inhibition

42
Q

what stimualtes the Na/Pi in the PT?

A

Vitamin D

43
Q

what are SGLT2 inhibitors for>

A

lower blood glucose in pts with type 2 diabetes

44
Q

what is the role of ADH

A

adjust the conc of medullary intersitium
urinate or reabsorb water using urea
HYPOtonic solution

45
Q

how can we obtain such a wide range of urine Volume and Osm?

A

high osmolarity of medullary fluids

regulation of H2O reabsorb by ADH

46
Q

what are the two countercurrent systems?

A
countercurrent multiplier (in LOH; creates gradient)
countercurrent exchanger (in vein; preserves the gradient)
47
Q

what does ADH respond to?

A

changes in plasma Na

via thirst and water transport

48
Q

what does RAAS respond best to?

A

changes in plasma volume

increases Na and H2O reabsorb at same rate and increases volume

49
Q

what does dehydration do to
plasma Na
plasma Osmo
Urine Osmo

A

Na- increase
plasma Osmo- increase
urine osmo- increase

50
Q

what does hypersecretion of ADH do to
plasma Na
plasma osmo
urine osmo

A

Na- decrease
plasma osmo- decrease
urine osmo- increase

51
Q

what does diabetes insipidus (ADH deficient) do to
plasma Na
plasma osmo
urine osmo

A

Na- increase
plasma osmo- increase
urine osmo- decrease

52
Q

what is RAAS opposed by?

A

ANP/BNP

53
Q

what is Reabsorption of Na controlled principally by?

A

RAAS bc it does not effect urea

ISOtonic volume

54
Q

what is the goal of ANP and BNP

A

oppose RAAS and lower ECFV via Na and water excretion

55
Q

what things increase Na excretion

A

ECF Na
ECF volume

A

<3.5mM

59
Q

hyperkalemia number

60
Q

what happens when plasma K is increased?
