A&P Final lecture 2 Notes Flashcards by Jasmine Nowels

What happen to pressure as it moves through a system and encounter resistance ?

-As the blood is flowing through high resistance arteries the blood pressures decrease
-The higher the resistance the more the decrease

-Example: if we have a choke point somewhere with very high resistance and we look distal (or downstream) from that resistance expect to see a lower pressure on the other side of the resistance

What is the mean capillary pressure?

Mean Capillary pressure = 17.3 mmhg

The average pressure is a little lower than what is expected due to venous capillary side having more surface area related to vessels splitting and larger size

What is the NFP across the entire average capillary and what does the charge of the number tells us?

When we take in consideration the other forces the NFP across the entire average capillary is +0.3 mmhg

What are the 2 capillary beds and what role do they play in the renal system?

Glomerular Capillaries (filtration) -Immediately behind or downstream from the afferent arteriole -Large fluid movement is due to large surface area -Twisting ball in the bowman's capsule Peritubular capillaries (reabsorption) -Surround the Loop of Henle -Twisting and branching around -Large fluid movement is due to large surface area

Where is the Afferent and efferent arterioles located in relation to the Glomerular capillaries.

What is the structure: Found in the Outer Medulla and some extend deeper in the kidney Majority of reabsorption happens in this region Vasa Recta (VR) -The capillaries that extend deep into the kidney - Descending and Ascending Vasa Recta (DVR and AVR) - 5% of are part of the Vasa Recta

Peritubular Capillaries

Where is the kidneys located?

Pudendal nerve

What is the structure name that we use to process waste

Renal Tubular

True or false. large surface area in the glomerular capillaries allow you to filter a lot of stuff

True

What is the supporting structure that keeps the blood vessels intact and in place? What is the type of tissue?

podocytes epithelium cell

How do the podcytes support the glomerular capillaries

podocytic end feet extensions support the glomerular capillaries

What are the large opening called that provide little to no resistance to movement of fluid (water) and small dissolved compounds

fenestrations

What are slit pores

-is another structure that’s supposed to keep proteins out of this area -Openings between the podocytes end feet -Slit pores typically have lots of negative charges and the negative charges tend to repel other things with negative charges -So typically doesn’t really repel chloride or negatively charged ions but it does repel larger negatively charged compounds which tend to be proteins -Proteins typically have a net negative charge having the glomerular capillaries have a in the surrounding structures it prevents those proteins from trying to squeeze through these small openings

What is the name of the rate of all of the fluid that’s being filtered, witihin the nephrons?

GFR (glomerular filtration rate)

Related to filtration/ Secretion/Reabsorption: What happens to drugs that we want to get rid of but don't reabsorb it ?

filtration only

Related to filtration/ Secretion/Reabsorption: what happen to most compounds?

filtration and complete reabsoroption

Related to filtration/ Secretion/Reabsorption: what will be the case for a drug that only partial is needed

filtration and partial reabsorbed

Related to filtration/ Secretion/Reabsorption: body has the ability to actively grab things and move them into the tubule to put these compounds into our urine.

filtration, secretion

Related to filtration/ Secretion/Reabsorption: all the compound leaves the body

filteration

What is the formula of excretion

filtration - reabsorption + secreted

Efferent loops around and becomes the ______.

Peritiubular capillaries

How much water is reabsorb by the peritublar capillaries and how much counts as urinary content ?

124mls (98 - 99% reabsorbed) 1mls a count for urine

What is driving flow of the filtration?

capillary pressure (pCAP) Oconic pressure pressure of the tube

What is the NFP to allow the filtration to take place in the glomerular capillaries ?

10 mmhg

What is the hydrostatic pressure in the glomerular capillaries and why ?

60 mmgh, due to not a lot of resistance from the heart

What is the name of the first part of the tubual and what is the pressure?

Bowman's Capsule 18 mmgh

What is the glomerular colloid osmotic (oncontic) pressure and how do it becomes that number?

32 mmgh which is averages, -As filter more fluid in capillary bed (no reabsorption happening here), lots of fluid being filtered and larger things being left behind -The proteins are concentrated as the fluids are leaving capillary beds into the proximal tubule (proteins left behind) -Glomerular capillary oncotic pressure starts off at 28 mmHg but as lose more and more fluid, the proteins end up being concentrated and oncotic pressure increases as go through glomerular capillary bed

What are the 3 pressures to take in consideration and the values regarding NFP?

-Glomerular blood pressure 60 mmHg -Bowman’s capsule pressure 18 mmHg (hydrostatic pressure) -glomerular oncontic pressure – on average 32 mmHg

What are the 2 forces that appose filtration and 1 force that favors

Favor filtration: Glomerular blood pressure Forces oppose filtration: Bowman’s capsule pressure 18 mmHg (hydrostatic pressure) glomerular oncotic pressure – on average 32 mmHg

What is the pressure that we don't have to take in to account in regarding the NFP and why?

dissolved protein osmotic pressure in Bowman’s capsule, because there is no protein floating around to be filter so the pressure is 0.

What would happen down-stream with an increase in the afferent arteriole resistance and how would that affect the GFR?

the Glomerular capillary blood pressure decreases GFR would decrease also decrease renal blood flow

What would happen up-stream and down - stream with an increase in the efferent arteriole resistance and how would that affect the GFR?

the Glomerular capillary blood pressure increase GFR would increase lower pressure down- stream that would increase the reabsorption

What arteriole auto-regulate the GFR

Efferent arterioles

Any manipulation to the afferent and efferent arterioles will affect what 2 elements in the renal system?

the GFR Renal blood flow

True or false: If we increase the glomerular colloid osmotic pressure we will decrease the amount of fluid filtered

False

What is the blood pressure (Pc) in the peritubular capillaries and why?

13 mmhg, because it is down stream from a 2nd resistance

What is the flood pressure outside the peritubular capillaries?

6 mmgh

What is the onconic pressure outside the peritublar capillaries

15 mmgh

What is the net reabsorption pressure in the peritublar capillaies?

10 mmgh

True or false the reabsorption needs energy to function

True

What is renal clearance?

a number that tells us how much fluid that has been cleared of a compound per unit time.

What is the formula for clearance and what does the abbreviation means?

Cx = (V * Ux)/ Px V = urine flow rate Ux = urinary concentration of this compound Px = Plasma concentration of this compound

The what is the measurements for renal clearance?

volume / time ml /minute

After the fluid is filtered by the glomerular, it moves down the peritublar where it comes into contact with cells outside the tubular, What are there two jobs?

aid in reabsorption and serection

How is the glucose reabsorbed back into the peritubuar

-Glut 2 transporters, which is a secondary active transporter -Goes back across the instistium back in to the peritubular capillaries

how much fluid do we reabsorb form the filtration

124 ml of volume

How much glucose would be left in the 1ml of urine if you reabsorb 100mg/ml of glucose and is the clearance rate high or low

0 mg, clearance rate is low

True or false. In order to have renal clearance we do not have to have the same compound

False, in order to have renal clearance you most have the same compound

What is the rate of plasma fluid and blood flow through a kidney in a person that is completely healthy?

660 ml/min 1100 ml/min

Why is renal plasma fluid and renal blood flow rate separated ?

because red blood cells can’t be filtered, so their volume isn’t included in this filtration fraction formula.

What is the percentage amount of renal plasma we filter through the kidney?

19%

What is the filtration fraction formula?

GFR/ RPF = FF 125/660 = 0.19 which is 1/5 of the plasma flowing through kidney

What is the HCT for our class

0.40
