RENAL PHYSIOLOGY 4 Flashcards
proximal tubule
major reabsorptive area because of presence of ___, its basolateral membrane are ________ and it has abundant mitochondria
brush borders
invaginated
transport processes
limitation is equilibrium and important factor: permeability and gradient
passive transport
transport processes
includes primary, secondary, and endocytosis
active transport
site of glucose reabsorption
early portion of the proximal of tubule
glucose is freely ______ and ______ reabsorbed
freely
100% reabsorbed
glucose
this is a secondary active transport mechanism co-transported with sodium - utilizing a carrier known as ______________
sodium glucose transporter 2
glucose
across the basolateral when it goes to the blood, it is already done by facilitated diffusion which is _____________
glucose transporter 2
Normal glucose concentration in blood (FBS) is _________
80-110 mg/dL
site of reabsorption of amino acids
early portion of the proximal tubule
amino acids
in the apical membrane is co transported with ____
in the basolateral membrane there is ______/_______ diffusion
sodium
simple or facilitated diffusion
proteins
reabsorption rate
the site is ____________
early portion of the proximal tubule
proteins
they are large, cannot pass through they will undergo ___________ in the apical membrane
in the basolateral membrane they will undergo ____________
endocytosis in the apical
exocytosis in the basolateral
in endocytosis of proteins there are multiligand endocytic receptors
they can bind a wide range of peptides and proteins and thereby mediate their endocytosis:
M
C
megalin
cubilin
reabsorption site of urea
mainly in the medullary collecting duct
Urea us reabsorbed back at the collecting duct through the ________ and it is enhanced by the ________
Urea transporter A1
enhanced by ADH
urea is the waste product of the __________
protein metabolism
uric acid is primarily reabsorbed at the ___________
proximal tubule
uric acid the waste product of ________________-
nucleic acid metabolism
creatinineL excretion rate is ________ to filtration rate
equal
ascorbic acid:
excretion rate is regulated by:
_________ filtration
Tubular reabsorption: _________
tubular secretion: ___________
glomerular filtration
proximal tubule
distal tubule
