Elimination
Environment
Excretion
Body fluid
Cortical nephrons [2]
Short LOH -> Medulla
Peritubular capillaries
Juxtamedullary nephron [2]
Deeper into pyramid
Vasa recta
Organic acid [3]
Uric acid
Antibiotic - penicillin
Diuretic
Organic base [2]
Creatinine
Procainamide
Renal filtration [3]
BP
Different diameters
Renal blood flow
Glomerular filtration [3]
Pores in glomerular cap endothelium
Basement membrane of Bowman’s capsule
Epithelial cells of Bowman’s capsule - Podocytes via filtration slits
Two forces filter fluid out
Glomerular cap hydrostatic pressure
Bowman’s capsule oncotic pressure (almost zero)
Two forces oppose ultrafiltration
Glomerular cap oncotic pressure
Bowman’s capsule hydrostatic pressure
Filtration pressure
(PGC) – (PBS + piGC)
Autoregulation of RBF
BP 90-200mmHg
Myogenic or metabolic
GFR increased by [5]
Prostaglandins, ANP, dopamine, NO, kinins
GFR decreased by [4]
Noradrenaline
(from symp nerves), endothelin, adenosine, ADH
Filtration pressure drop = GFR drop [4]
Less Na+ enter PT
Macula densa senses change in tubular Na+ levels
Stimulate juxtaglomerular cells to release renin
Ang II generated
Na+ co-transported with [2]
Sulphate
Phosphate
SGLT2 inhibitors
Dapagliflozin
Canagliflozin
Empagliflozin
APICAL
PAH [4]
Non-endoegenous compound
Transported into PT via alpha-ketoglutarate or di/tri carboxylates
Transported out in exchange for another anion
Tubular secretion
Thin limb
AQP1 and passive TJ movement
Flat cells
Thick limb
Na+K+2Cl-
Cl- and Na+ for K+ in
DT (throughout)
Na+ for K+ in
Late DT and early CD
Principal cells
Sensitive to aldosterone
Exchange Na+ for K+ in late DT and early CD
alpha-Intercalated Cells
Secretes acid (H+) via H+/Na+ or H+/K+ exchange, involving ATPase or H+ATPase
Reabsorbs bicarbonate (HCO3-)
beta-Intercalated Cells
Secrete bicarbonate (HCO3-) via Pendrin
Reabsorbs acid (H+)
CD & ADH [3]
Vasopressin V2 receptor
10-15min plasma half life Activate intracellular AQP2
Nephrogenic - diabetes inspidius
Inability of kidney to respond to ADH
Chlortalidone (diuretic)
Indometacin (anti-inflammatory
Neurogenic - diabetes inspidius
Due to lack of ADH production
by the brain
Desmopressin (ADH analogue)
Vasopressin
Carbamezapine (anti-convulsive)
SIADH can cause
Hyponatraemia
Fluid overload
ADH
- increased
- decreased
Nicotine
Ether
Morphine
Barbiturates
Alcohol
Diuretic use
Reduce circulating volume
Remove excess fluid
Loop diuretic use [6]
Inhibit NaK2Cl in THICK asc LOH
Reduced Na+ reabsorption
Acute pulmonary oedema
Chronic heart failure
Cirrhosis of the liver
Resistant hypertension
Nephrotic syndrome
Acute renal failure
