Week 1 Flashcards
mesoderm derivative that gives rise to kidney and gonads
intermediate mesoderm
mesoderm derivative that gives rise to head and somite
paraxial mesoderm
mesoderm derivative that gives rise to splanchnic, somatic, and extraembryonic
lateral mesoderm
transitory, non-functional kidney
pronephros (cervical nephrotomes)
functional during development of permanent kidney, duct contributes to developing testis, male genital system, and vestigial remnants in female
mesonephros
permanent kidney in 5th week, produces urine at 11-13 weeks
metanephros
ureteric bud forms what structures?
ureter, pelvis, calyces
polyhydramnios
less swallowing, excess amniotic fluid due to esophageal or duodenal atresia
oligohydramnios
less urine output, shortage of amniotic fluid due to failure of kidneys to develop normally
derivative of ureteric bud
collecting tubules
derivative of nephrogenic mesenchyme
nephron and Bowman’s capsule
expressed by mesenchyme, enables tissue to respond to induction by ureteric bud
WT1
receptor that mediates programmed cell death, localized to mesenchyme during ureteric bud branching
Angiotensin II receptor
division of cloaca by urorectal septum into dorsal rectum and ventral urogenital sinus
bladder formation
mesonephric ducts and attached ureteric buds intercalated into posterior wall
exstrophy of the bladder
dysregulation of fetal adrenal gland, hypertrophy of adrenal cortex, overproduction of dehydroepiandrosterone, masculinization of female genitalia
congenital virilizing hyperplasia (CAH)
bilateral renal agenesis, due to oligohydramnios, lung hypoplasia, clubbed feet, bow legs
Potter sequence
nephroblastoma, most common primary renal tumor affecting children, 4th most common pediatric tumor, mutation in WT-1, poorly formed tubules
Wilm’s tumor
pelvic kidney, often pancake shaped or horseshoe kidney where inferior poles fused and ascent blocked by inferior mesenteric artery
ectopic kidneys
tube open at both ends, may cause urine to drain from umbilicus
urachal fistula
exposure and protrusion of posterior wall of bladder through abdominal wall
exstrophy of the bladder
affects laminins, nephrotic syndrome and ocular abnormalities, proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia,
Pierson syndrome
defect in type 4 collagen, males, uremic syndrome to end stage renal failure, treat with dialysis or transplant
Alport disease
defect in nephrin compromising slit diaphragm, massive proteinuria and albuminemia (causing edema), treat w/ albumin and ACE inhibitors, requires dialysis/transplant, leaking protein into urine
congenital nephrotic syndrome
normal value for RBF
1.2 L/min, 20-25% of cardiac output
normal value for RPF
660 mL/min
