URINARY Flashcards
how much fluid can the bladder hold on average
700-800ml
what level of the spine controls the micturition reflex
S2,S3
which layer of bladder controls the internal sphincter
middle (involuntary controlled)
what is the order of filtrate passing through a nephron
(PDADC)
PCT
descending limb
ascending limb
distal convoluted tubule
collecting duct
what is secreted into the filtrate at the DCT
K+, H+
in tubular secretion which method of transport utilizes symporters and antiporters?
secondary active transport
functions of urinary system
excrete waste
REGULATION OF:
blood ions
blood pH
blood volume
blood pressure
blood glucose
maintain blood osmolality
produce hormone
what is contained in the renal hilum of the kidneys
renal artery, pelvis, nerves, vein, calyces
the micturition reflex involves what action?
involuntary relaxation of internal sphincter
the juxtaglomerular apparatus is made of what cells?
macula cells and juxtaglomerular cells
urea is absorbed and recycled predominantly from where
collecting duct
blood supply to kidney in order
ASIACAGE
aorta
segmental arteries
interlobar
arcuate
cortical radiate
afferent arterioles
glomerular capillaries
efferent arterioles
what are the two types of nephrons
C & J
which is closer to medulla
cortical (short loops)
juxtamedullary nephron (deep near medulla) (long loops)
how do our kidneys regulate glomerular filtration
GFR is the amount of renal filtrate formed in all renal corpuscles of both kidneys in one minute, must be stable
mechanisms that allow kidney to autoregulate w/o influence (5)
MMNHH
myogenic - walls of afferent arteriole stretch due to high BP = reduced GFR
macula densa feedback -arteries constrict or dilate and increase GFR
neuroregulation - SNS firing, decrease in GFR, BP
hormonal regulation - below
homeostatic regulation - RAAS
which hormone increase GFR
atrial naturetic peptide ANP
decrease BV/BP
which hormone decreases GFR
angiotensin II
vasoconstrictor, decrease BP
what does the Antidiuertic Hormone do
increase blood volume/pressure
decrease urine
posterior pit.gland releases it in response to dehydration
vasoconstriction
in late distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct
what does Atrial Natriuertic Peptide do
decrease blood volume and pressure
increase GFR
stretching of atria stimulates secretion, increase surface by relaxing capillaries or dilating afferent arteriole
increase Na and water secretions
what does aldosterone do
increases BV&BP
stimulates principal cells & aquaporin channels in CT to reabsorb more Na+ and more water to secrete more K+
stimulated by angiotensin II
where is urea recycled and why do we get rid of it
collecting duct
to keep the medulla more salty and to retain more water
what is excreted and absorbed at the proximal convoluted tubule
excreted: hydrogen, urea, creatinine, ammonium
absorbed: water, sodium, urea, glucose, chlorine, AA, bicarbonate, calcium, magnesium
what is not secreted by PCT
glucose
what is dysuria
painful urination
