week 19 epithelial fluid secretion Flashcards
which has a greater fluid recover volume? small or large intestine
small 7L
Large 1.9L
what disease inhibits fluid reabsorption in the gut?
cholera
ion movement across a ‘tight’ epithelial monolayers drives _____ movement
water
polarised organisation of channels, pumps, exchangers and junction proteins determines _____ and ______ of water movement
direction and movement
how many routes of transepithelial water movement are there
2
intracellular movement of water occurs where
inside cells
intracellular movement of water occurs within cells and is regulated by what
water channels - aquaporins
paracellular movement of water occurs where
between cells
paracellular movement of water occurs between cells and is regulated by what
tight junction permeability
what are the 2 routes of transepithelial water movement
intracellular
paracellular
ENaC draws fluid from where of the cell nd into the blood
apical surface of the cell
what pump allows Cl- ions into the cell
NKCC
where is the NKCC pump located
on the basolateral surface of the cell
cl- accumulates in the ____ of the cell and creates ________ movement of which ion
lumen
paracellular movement
Na
Cl- channels = fluid _______
secretion
Cl- channels transport from where to where
basolateral to apical transport
Na+ channels = fluid _____
absorption
Na+ channels transport from where to where
apical to basolateral transport
what is the swelling-activated Cl- channel
(IClvol)
what does the swelling-activated Cl- channel (IClvol) do
how is it activated
activated transiently by osmotic shock
sustained opening does not occur
what is the calcium activated Cl- channel
CaCC
what does the Calcium activated Cl- channel do (CaCC)
how is it activated and is it transient?
activated by release of intracellular Ca2+ stores. Activity is transient and therefore unlikely to be sustained in development
what is the outwardly rectifying Cl- channel
(ORCC)
what does the Outwardly rectifying Cl- channel (ORCC) do
how is it regulated
regulated by release of intracellular ATP. Maintains potential by regulated depolarisation to physiological set point
what is the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
CFTR
what does the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator do
what does it regulate and where
best characterised channel due to role in cystic fibrosis disease. Long presumed to be channel regulating fluid secretion in adult lung
what is the voltage dependant Cl- channel
CLCN
what does the voltage dependant Cl- channels (CLCN) do
where is it and what process development does it follow (organ)
recently characterised in lung. Expression pattern follows the process of lung development
what is the CFTR a member of
member of the ATP binding cassette (ABS) glycoprotein superfamily
what is the kDa of CFTR
170kDa
how many _ transmembrane domains is CFTR composed of
2x 6 transmembrane domains
how many nucleotide binding domains does CFTR have
2
what are the 2 nucleotide binding domains that CFTR has (common to all ABC proteins)
NBD1 and NBD2
how many R domains are there in CFTR
1
what is a unique feature of CFTR
has one single domain of highly charged amino acids
in CFTR, the R domain is a regulatory site containing several ______ sites for what protein kinases
phosphorylation sites
protein kinases A and C
activation of CGTR Cl- conductance requires ___ binding to what domains
ATP binding
to the NBD domains and phosphorylation of the R domain
