Tubular Reabsorption & Secretion Flashcards
Paracellular Path of reabsorption
Filtrate travels from the LUMEN through the Intercellular Space into the capillary
Transcellular Path or Reabsorption
Filtrate travels from the LUMEN through the CELL and then to the capillary
Aquaporin-1 location?
WIDESPREAD
Including the Renal tubules
Aquaporin-2 location?
- Present in APICAL membranes of COLLECTING Tubule cells
- Controlled by ADH
Aquaporin-3 location?
Present in BASOLATERAL membranes membranes of Collecting Tubule cells
Role of ATPases in the Nephron?
- Establish IONIC gradient across nephron
- Gradients drive reabsorption/secretion of many other solutes
- Transported by SECONDARY active transport
Most Primary Active Transporters have what characteristic?
ATPase attached to the name
Sodium enters the cell via ____ and exits the cell via ____.
Diffusion
Active Transport Pumps
Ion gradient determines what pathway for ____ concentration.
Sodium
What are examples of SECONDARY active transport?
- Reabsorption of GLUCOSE by the Renal tubule
2. Reabsorption of AA by the Renal Tubule
Sodium-glucose co transporter on the _______ of the ______ tubule.
- Brush Border
- Proximal
SGLT2
- Reabsorbs 90% of Glucose in EARLY Proximal Tubule
SGLT1
Reabsorbs 10% of Glucose in the LATE Proximal Tubule
Substances that are ACTIVELY secreted into the Renal Tubules.
- Creatinine
2. Para-aminohippuric Acid
PAHA
Transport max for glucose reabsorption
VS
Filtered Load for glucose
375mg/min
VS
125mg/min
Reasons that some passively reabsorbed substances do not have a Transport Maximum?
- Diffusion determined by E-chemical gradient
- Permeability of membrane
- TIME that the fluid remains in the tubule
Excretion will occur when [BG] exceeds how much?
250mg/min
Filtered load for glucose
- What you CONSUME is what you FILTER
- LINEAR on a graph
Rate of transport depends on what?
- E-Chemical gradient
- TIME in the tubule
- FLOW RATE
Proximal Tubule
- Highly metabolic w/ LARGE # of Mitochondria
- Extensive brush borders
- Extensive IC and Basal channels on interstitial surfaces
Purpose of a brush border?
To increase SURFACE AREA
What does the Proximal Tubule Reabsorb
- 65% of Filtered
- Na+
- Cl-
- Bicarbonate
- K+
“NaCl BiK (Nickel back)”
- ALL filtered glucose and AA
