Q

What are the two different isoforms of CA and how do they function

A

1) CA-IV is present on the brush boarder, so the CO2 and H2O formed readily cross the luminal membrane and enter the cell
2) Ca-II is inside the cell, and this is where H and bicarb are produced

Q

In the distal tubule, for each H that is being secreted, what is happening with bicarb

A

For each H that is being excreted as titratable acid, one new HCO3- is being synthesized and reabsorbed

Q

PT vs DT in terms of H secretion and bicarb

A

PT: No H acid secretion, and reabsorption of bicarb
DT: H excreted, bicarb synthesis, and reabsorption of bicarb

22
Q

Beta intercalated cells will secrete what

A

Bicarb, not H

23
Q

In the DT, bicarb is secreted through what transporter

A

Pendrin, it sends bicarb out and Cl into the cell

24
Q

How is H reabsorbed in DT

A

V-ATPase will reabsorb H

25
Q

Under meat-containing diets, what will dominate, H secretion or bicarb secretion?

A

H secretion will dominate

26
Q

How much acid is normally excreted in urine?

A

50-100 mEq of acid, so urine is normally acidic

27
Q

H can be removed in what two main forms

A

1) Titratable acids in the urine

2) NH4

28
Q

What is the most important titratable buffer and why?

A

Phosphate, because of its relatively high concentration in urine and its ideal pKa

29
Q

What is the percentage of Pi that is reabsorbed and excreted?

A

85% reabsorbed, 15% excreted

30
Q

What is a titratable acid

A

Since urinary pH is bounded over the range of 7.4 to 4.4, only those weak acids with pKas within this range are titrable acids

31
Q

What is ammonium and why is it in our urine?

A

Hydrogen ions that are not associated with Pi or other filtered bases are excreted as ammonium, and more H ions are excreted with ammonium than with filtered bases like Pi

32
Q

NH4 production and its relationship with bicarb

A

NH4 is produced by the kidneys and its synthesis and subsequent excretion adds HCO3 to the ECF, and this is regulated in response to the acid-base requirements of the body

33
Q

At pH 7.3, what form is ammonia in and because of this, what is the consequence for H

A

NH4 form, so ammonium, and H can be excreted

34
Q

What is ammoniagenesis

A

Production of NH4 from glutamine in the PT

35
Q

New bicarb is produced how

A

During the metabolism of glutamine by cells of the PT

36
Q

What is critical for the excretion of NH4?

A

H secretion by the CD is critical for the excretion of NH4

37
Q

If there is no H secretion, what happens to NH4

A

NH4 will be returned to the systemic circulation, converted to urea in the liver, and consume bicarb

38
Q

What is the overall net result with bicarb and ammonium

A

1 new bicarb is returned to the systemic circulation for each proton excreted in the form of NH4 in the urine

39
Q

What are the three quantities to consider when examining the net excretion of acid?

A

The amount of titratable acidity
The amount of ammonium
The amount of bicarbonate or free protons, if any

40
Q

The steps to excrete a base

A

1) Freely filter bicarb
2) Reabsorb the majority of the filtered bicarb
3) Reabsorb some additional bicarb
4) Secrete some bicarb
5) Excrete alkaline urine containing bicarb

41
Q

The steps to excrete an acid

A

1) Freely filter bicarb
2) Reabsorb the majority of the filtered bicarb
3) Reabsorb some additional bicarb
4) Secrete H and secrete NH4
5) Excrete acidic urine containing NH4

42
Q

What is the equation for quantifying RNAE

A

RNAE = titratable acid excreted + NH4 excreted - HCO3 excreted

43
Q

What will increase H secretion

A

Cellular acidosis
Endothelin
Cortisol
Ang II

44
Q

What will increase ammoniagenesis

A

Cellular acidosis
Cortisol
Ang II

45
Q

What will decrease Pi reabsorption

A

PTH

46
Q

What will increase new bicarb synthesis

A

Titratable acid (Pi)
NH4 excretion
Rhbg and Rhcg

47
Q

ECF volume expansion will do what for regulation of bicarb

A

ECF volume expansion will inhibit isosmotic reabsorption in the PT, which will inhibit bicarb reabsorption

48
Q

ECF volume contraction will do what for regulation of HCO3

A

WIll stimulate bicarb reabsorption

49
Q

Ang II will do what for regulation of bicarb

A

Stimulates Na-H exchange in the PT, which will stimulate bicarb reabsorption and increase blood bicarb concentration. This can cause contraction alkalosis, which can also be caused by loop diuretics or thiazide diuretics

50
Q

Effect of the lungs on bicarb

A

Chronic changes in PCO2 alters the reabsorption of filtered bicarb
Increases in PCO2 increases the reabsorption of bicarb and decreases the PCO2 will decrease the reabsorption of bicarb

51
Q

ET-1 will do what for H transport in the PT

A

Stimulate the insertion of Na/H antiporter into the apical membrane, and insertion of Na/3HCO3 symporter into the basolateral membrane in PT

52
Q

Cortisol will do what for cellular H transport in the PT

A

Increase the abundance of the Na/H antiporter and Na/3HCO3 symporter in the PT

53
Q

Ang II will do that for cellular H transport in the PT

A

Bind to the ang I receptor, stimulate H secretion and bicarb reabsorption by the PT
