Renal Random Flashcards
pronephros
degenerates
mesonephros
interim kidney in first trimester
contributes to male genital system
ureteric bud
ureter pelvises, calyces, collecting ducts
canalized by 10th week
metanephric mesenchyme (blastema)
glomerulus through DCT
last to canalize
ureteropelvic junction
most common site of obstruction-hydronephrosis
causes Potter sequence
ARPKD, obstructive uropathy, bilateral renal agenesis, chronic placental insufficiency
associations horseshoe kidney
chromosomal aneuploidy
Turner, trisomy 13, 18, 21
unilateral renal agenesis
ureteric bud fails to develop, fails to induce diff of metanephric
leads to complete absence of kidney and ureter
multicystic dysplastic kidney
ureteric bud fails to induce diff
cysts and connective tissue in kidney
nonhereditary and unilateral
posterior urethral valves
remnant of posterior urethra in males leading to obstruction
kidney in transplant
left due to longer renal vein
renal blood flow
seg interlobar arcuate interlobular afferent arteriole glomerulus efferent vasa recta
damage to ureter
gynecologic procedures
ureters pass under uterine artery or vas
measure plasma volume
albumin
measure ECF
inulin or mannitol
composition glomerular filtration barrier
fenestrated capillary endothelium
basement membrane
epithelial layer
basement membrane composition
heparan sulfate and type IV collagen
clearance and GFR
lower-reabsorption
higher-secretion
measurement RPF
PAH
RBF
RPF/1-hematocrit
location prostaglandins
dilate arteriole
increase FF
efferent arteriole constriction (increase GFR, decrease RPF)
decrease plasma concentration (increase GFR)
dehydration
pregnancy and glucose clearance
decrease PCT ability to reabsorb glucose and AA
splay
between threshold and Tm
due to heterogeneity of nephrons
isotonic absorption
PCT
makes hypotonic (dilute) urine
Early DCT
concentrating segment
thin descending loop of henle
makes urine hypertonic
defect in PCT
Fanconi syndrome
increased excretion of AA, glucose, HCO3, PO4
results in metabolic acidosis
causes Fanconi syndrome
Wilson disease, tyrosinemia, glycogen storage diseases, cystinosis, ischemia, multiple myeloma, toxins, lead poisoning
defect in thick ascending loop of Henle
Bartter
hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis with hypercalciuria
AR
defect in NaCl in DCT
Gitelman
hypokalmeia, hypomagnesemia, metabolic hypocalciuria
AR
gain of function in Na channel
Liddle syndrome
hypertension, hypokalmeia, alkalosis, decrease aldo
syndrome of apparent mineraldocorticoid excess
def in 11b hydroxysteroid increase mineralocorticoid receptor activity leading to hypertension, hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis
treatment syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess
corticosteroids
cortisol tries to do same as aldo
Cl relative to Na
slower than Na in PCT
matches Na more distally
affects baroreceptor function
AT II
helps maintain blood volume and blood pressure
limits bradycardia
renin secretion
decrease arterial pressure, increase sympathetic discharge, decrease Na delivery to macula densa
modified smooth muscle of afferent arteriole
JG cells
release of EPO
interstitial cells in peritubular capillary
dopamine in the kidney
secreted by PCT to promote natriuresis
low-dilation
high-vasoconstriction
shifts K out of cell
digitalis hyperosmolarity lysis-crush injury acidosis beta blocker high blood sugar succinylcholine
RTA 1
alkaline urine
defect in alpha intercalated (distal)
hypokalemia, risk of CaPO4 stones
causes RTA1
ampho B, analgesic nephropathy, congenital anomalies
RTA 2
acidic urine, defect in HCO3 reabsorption
metabolic acidosis and hypokalemia
risk of hypophosphatemia rickets
causes RTA 2
Fanconi and CA inhibitors
RTA 4
urine acidic, hyperkalmeia
hypoaldo
