45
Q

what is the primary role of the ascending loop of henle

A

countercurrent mechanisms and no H2O permeability
- unlike descending LOH, thin and thick segments are not permeable to H2O
-ions pumped from tubular fluid into peritubular interstitium. Na/K/Cl co transporter is most important pump.
-since H2O cannot follow Na into peritubular interstitium, tubular fluid becomes more dilute and peritubular interstitium becomes concentrated

46
Q

primary role of distal convoluted tubule

fine tune solute concentration
-Na(5%) is reabsorbed and Na/K/HCO3- follow via sodium co transport mechanism
-late distal tubule is impermeable to H2O except in the presence of aldosterone or ADH
-home to juxtaglomerular apparatus
-adjusts urea concentration

47
Q

Q

what is the function of carbonic anhydrase in the proximal tubule? (5 steps)

A
  1. CO2 and H2O diffuse into proximal convoluted tubule cells
  2. carbonic anhydrase facilitates production of H2CO3
