Q

glomerular filtration barrier

A
  1. podocytes (epi of bowmans capsule, fenestrated, large poors, neg charge, mensangial cells)
  2. basement membrane (basal lamina - neg charged, glycoprotiens, coarse sieve)
    lies in between
  3. epithelium of Bowman’s capsule (podocytes create filtration slits)
    allows 20% plasma to enter bowman’s space

Q

GFR =

A

GFR= KF [(PGC-PBS)-(πGC- πBS)], GFR is the volume tof plasma that enters bowman’s space, average 125 ml/min (above 100 good), most important regulator is blood flow

PGC: favors filtration, nearly constant
PBS: opposes filtration, constant
πGC: opposes filtration, high conc of protiens causes the rate to dec
πBS: favors filtration, no change because it can’t ever get out of capillaires

159
Q

what determiens how much acid can be buffered

A

how much before you can add before you see a change in pH

160
Q

CO2 reacts with water to produce what

A

carbonic acid

161
Q

pH =

A

6.1 + log ( [HCO3-] / 0.03 x Pco2)

162
Q

why is this such a good buffering system?

A

system is an open system: constantly changing and can add in the respiratory components. weak acid can be adjusted to meet the bodies needs. removal of CO2 by respiration or addition of CO2 by metabolism keeps the HCO3 : CO2 ratio near 20

163
Q

clinical correlation: increasing ketoacids

A

added H+, respiration will increase, renal will increase, bicarb dec, PCO2 increase

164
Q

metabolic acidosis

A

HCO3 < 24

  • respiratory compensation: PCO2 < 40 mmHg
  • Cause: addition of acid/loss of base
165
Q

respiratory acidosis

A

PCO2 > 40 mmHg

  • renal compensation, HCO3 > 24 mmHg
    cause: decreased ventilation
166
Q

metabolic alkalosis

A

HCO3 > 24

  • respiratory compensation, PCO3 > 40 mmHg
    cause: addition of base, loss of acid
167
Q

respiratory alkalosis

A

PCO3 < 40 mmHg

  • renal compensation, HCO3 < 24
    cause: increased ventilation
168
Q

renal correction in metabolic acidosis

A

increased acid titration : Increased NH3, increased HPO4-

increased acid excretion in the urine, increased bicarb regeneration. INC PH

169
Q

respiratory compensation metabolic acidosis

A

hyperventilation, dec pco2, dec H2CO3, dec H+, dec CO2 + H2O

170
Q

reabsorption of bicarbonate

A

bicarbonate enters the tubular fluid by glomerular filtration
forms H2CO3, converts to H2O and CO2 by carbonic anhydrase
CO2 can freely diffuse into proximal tubule cells, reacts with H2O inside to form HCO3- and H+, gets transported into PT capillaries across the basolateral membrane

171
Q

formation of ammonium

A

produced from glutamine in tubular cells

ammonium ion in the filtrate gets excreted removing H+

172
Q

acidosis and K+

A

collecting duct cells secrete H+ into the filtrate, this is done in exchange for K+ reabsorption, K+ increases in acidosis, secreted protons buffered by phosphate in the tubular fluid

173
Q

alkalosis and K+

A

cells in the collecting duct secrete bicarb and reabsorb H+, K+ exchanged for H+ to maintain neutrality, hypokalemia

174
Q

renal H+ excretion and HCO3- reabsorption / generation

A

normal: kidneys eliminate H+ and reabsorb new HCO3-
alkalosis: kidneys reduce secretion of H+ and secrete HCO3-
acidosis: kidneys increase secretion of H+ and increase formation/reabsorption of HCO3-

175
Q

diabetic ketoacidosis

A

increases ketoacids, K+ increase, pH < 7.4 (not complying with insulin therapy)
