Topic 8 A: Basic Principles Tubular Reabsorption & Secretion Flashcards
Excretion = equation?
Filtration–Reabsorption + Secretion
Filtration: occurs where?
Glomerulus
Reabsorption & Secretion occurs where?
Proximal tubule; loop of Henle;
distal tubule; collecting tubule
Filtration Rate = equation?
GFR x Plasma concentration

99.4%
Chloride: % of filtered load reabsorbed
99.1%
Potassium: % of filtered load reabsorbed
87.8%

0%
Kidneys has independent control over exertion rate by changing what?
appropriate reabsorption rate
Several distinct movements for water and solutes (4)
Transcellular path
Paracellular path
From interior of cell into tubular interstitial space
From interstitial space into peritubular capillary
Transcellular path
From tubular lumen into tubular cells
Paracellular path
From tubular lumen into tubular interstitial space
From interstitial space into peritubular capillary
Driven by capillary filtration forces [bulk flow]–net movement into the capillaries
Primary active transport mechanisms of tubular reabsorption (4)
Na-K ATPase (basal lateral membrane)
Hydrogen ATPase
H-K ATPase
Ca ATPase
Secondary active transport: Co-transport mechanisms of tubular reabsorption (2)
Sodium-glucose
Sodium-amino acids
Secondary active transport: Counter-transport mechanisms of tubular reabsorption
Sodium-hydrogen
Pinocytosis mechanisms of tubular reabsorption
(requires energy)
Proteins–once in cell broken down to component amino acids and amino acids reabsorbed
Passive mechanisms of tubular reabsorption (2)
Osmotic movement of water
Bulk flow into peritubular capillaries
Na reabsorption:
Na-K ATPase on basolateral sides of tubular epithelial cells
Creates membrane potential of what?
-70 mV
Na reabsorption
Na reabsorption:
Brush board of proximal tubule luminal membrane creates what?
huge surface area for diffusion (20x increase)
part of Na reabsorption
Sodium Rabsorption - Sodium reabsorption also enhanced by carrier proteins through luminal membrane
Co-transport & counter-transport proteins
Glucose Reabsorption: Co-transport mechanism so tied to what?
tied to sodium gradient from tubular lumen to interior of tubular cells
So efficient that usually removes all filtered glucose
KNOW
Glucose Reabsorption: Two luminal transporters?
SGLT2 and SGLT1
SGLT2 what is reabsorbed and where?
90% glucose reabsorbed via SGLT2 in early part of proximal tubule
SGLT1 what is reabsorbed and where?
10% reabsorbed in later part of proximal tubule
