renal section Flashcards
what type of bio transformations is the kidney capable of
phase 1 and 2
lungs excrete _______ acids and kidneys excrete ________ acids
lungs: volatile
kidneys: non volatile
when is EPO released via the kidney
when theres inadequate O2 delivery to kidney (anemia, reduced intravascular volume, hypoxia)
what stimulates erythrocyte production
EPO stimulates stem cells in bone marrow
what effect does PGE1 and PGE2 have on renal arterioles
vasodilation
what effect does thromboxane A2 have on renal arterioles
constriction
role of calcitrol with kidneys
- stimulates absorption of calcium from food
- instructs kidneys to reduce calcium and phosphate excretion
- increase deposition of calcium into bone
increased PTH _____’s calcitrol
increases
kidneys can synthesize _______ from amino acids
glucose
the kidneys receive _____ of CO (________mL/min_
20-25% (1000-1250mL/min)
How much of blood is filtered at glomerulus
20%
how much blood is reabsorbed in peritubular capillaries
99%
renal blood flow equation =
(MAP - renal venous pressure) / renal vascular resistance
how does blood flow through the kidney?
renal arteries -> renal segmental artery -> interlobular artery -> articulate artery -> interlobular artery -> afferent arterioles -> glomerular capillary bed -> efferent arterioles -> peritubular capillaries (reabsorption and secretion) -> venues -> interlobular vein ->arcuate vein -> interloper vein -> renal segmental vein
renal autoregulation includes
myogenic mechanism
JG apparatus
tubuloglomerular feedback
RAAS
prostaglandins
ANS
SNS
lower chloride concentration in ultrafiltrate does what
triggers renin release to activate RAAS
role of A2 and increase in GFR
constricts efferent arterioles
go over RAAS pathway
angiotensin–>(renin) angiotensin 1–> (ACE) angiotensin 2
5 roles of angiotensin 2
vasoconstriction (peripheral vessels and efferent arteriole)
increased aldosterone release from adrenal gland
SNS activation
increased ADH release from posterior ptuitary
increased thirst
where is aldosterone produced
zona glomerulosa of adrenal gland
what does aldosterone stimulate in kidney
Na/K/ATPase in principal cells of distal tubules and collecting ducts. H2O reabsorption and K/H excretion occurs
what two electrolyte changes increase aldosterone release
increased K or decreased Na
what is addisons
adrenocortical insufficiency (destruction of all cortical zones)
what stimulates ADH release
increased osmolarity of ECF. increased sodium shrinks osmoreceptors in hypothalamus. initiates transport of ADH from hypothalamus to posterior pituitary.
increased BV via unloading of baroreceptors in carotid sinuses, transverse aortic arch, great veins, right atrium
