Tubular Reabsorotion And Secretion Flashcards
Makes largest contribution for Reabsorption
PCT
The transfer of material from blood and tubule cells into filtrate
Secretion
Two important out comes from secretion
Secretion of H ions help control blood pH
Secretion of other items help eliminate them from the body
The top of soda cans
Apical
Bottom and sides of soda cans
Basolateral
Apical membrane contacts what type of fluid
Tubular fluid
Basolateral membrane contacts what type of fluid
Interstitial
Two types of Reabsorption routes
Paracellular
Transcellular
Water and solutes return to blood stream by moving between tubule cells
Paracellular
Water and solutes in tubular fluid pass through a tubule cell to return to blood stream
Transcellular
Function of tight junctions in tubule cells
Allows solutes to diffuse across them to return to peri tubular capillary
Why does renal tubules have a low concentration of Sodium ions in their cytosol
Na/K pump
Where are Na-K pumps located in the renal tubule cells?
The Basolateral portion
Lack of Na/K pump in the apical surface ensures what
Reabsorption of Na is one way process
Primary active transport
ATP is used to pump a substance across a membrane
Secondary active transport
Energy stored in an ions electrochemical gradient drives substance across a membrane
Membrane proteins that move two or more substances in the same direction across a membrane
Symporters
Move two or more substances in opposite direction across a membrane
Anti porters
The upper limit on how fast a transporter can work
Transport maximum
Obligatory water Reabsorption
Water is obliged to follow the solutes that are absorbed
Facultative water Reabsorption
The last 10 percent of water Reabsorption that may be needed
Regulates facultative water Reabsorption
ADH
Most solute Reabsorption in the PCT involves this ion
Na
