kidneys (142 cards)
1
Q
Wilms’ tumor
A
kidney tumor assoc. with aniridia
2
Q
kidney functions
A
acid base balance, controling Na (&H20) excretion and thereby also controling BP, eliminate waste like urea, uric acid and creatinine, PRODUCE erythropoietin and vitamin D3, degrade insuline and PTH
3
Q
what % of body weight is water?
A
60%
4
Q
what % of body weight is INTRA-cellular
A
40%
5
Q
what is in EXTRA-cellular body fluid?
A
20% and has interstitial fluid, plasma, transcellular, NaCl and NaHCO3
6
Q
what is macula densa and where is it?
A
MD monitors fluid composition @ tubular lumen at the JG apparatus (in front of Lacis cells)
7
Q
what are lacis/ extraglomerular mesanglial cells?
A
they lie behind macula densa layer at the entrance near Bowman’s capsule–transmit info from macula densa to the granular cells
8
Q
what are granular cells? aka JG cells?
A
smooth muscles with epi appears @ AFFERENT arteriole near glomerulus–synthesize renin (vasoconstrictor when low BP)
9
Q
when do JG cells produce renin?
A
beta-1 adrenergic stimulation, JG detected low renal perfusion P-meaning when there’s low fluid P at JG, and low NaCl re-absorption by the macula densa due to a low GFR
10
Q
what is the equation for urine formation?
A
excreted: filtered - reabsorbed + secreted
11
Q
what is the quation for renal clearance in word form?
A
clearance= (urine concentration * flow rate) / plasma concentration—measured in RATIO to clearance of INULIN (same as GFR)
12
Q
what does it mean to have a LOW clearance? less than 1
A
low Clearance ratio= need MORE of it in the body= increase reabsorption of product
13
Q
why do we use inulin for GFR clearance? what’ a normal value?
A
inuline= fructose polymer that just stays in the tubule and goes to pee, nontoxic and normal= 110-125mL/min
14
Q
what is GFR?
A
rate at which plasma is filtered (out into bowman’s and into Prox. tubule) by the glomeruli
15
Q
what is creatinine? how’s it related to GFR?
A
from creatine phosphate and is always stable in blood unless there’s disease. has INVERSE relationship w/ GFR
16
Q
what does high creatinine clearance in pee mean?
A
good, efficient kidneys! they are working well to maintain stable plasma creatinine levels. low PLASMA creatinine= good filtration= high GFR!
17
Q
name something that should NOT be in urine?

what type of diabetes is likely in someone with ketones in their urine?
A
type 1
20
Q
what is bilirubin?
A
yellowing in brusing, from break down of blood. Usually means liver problem, but can be in newborns who are making too much RBC and liver is killing off the excess so there’s increase in bilirubin–that’s normal
21
Q
what % of cardiac output goes to renal blood flow? what is that in L/min?
A
20% – 1.2L/min
22
Q
assuming HIGH BP, what is the myogenic mechanism?
A
Ca channels open and contract smooth vessel walls which decrease the diameter= vaso-CONSTRICTION= increases resistance to “brace” for the high BP
23
Q
assuming HIGH BP, what is the tubuloglomerular feedback?
A
highBP= higher GFR to help get rid of some fluid to decrease the P. This happens with ATP released @ macula densa via adenosine release—a vasoconstrictor at the local level (also stops reninproduction which is for low BP)
24

26
what do the JG cells have that allow it to control what goes in/out? how?
has podocytes w/ food processes on the VISCERAL layer that work with endo. fenestrations/pores (RBC's can't leave cuz of this). slit membranes on the apical side facing Bowman's Space prevent mid-size proteins leaving, Basal lamina (middle layer, BM) prevents large proteins from leaving
27

31
what's going OUT from blood into urine @ prox. tubule?
H+ and base
32
what's an INHIBITOR @ prox. tubule? what will decrease reabsorption?
carbonic anhydrase= acetazolamide (diuretic)---decrease HCO3 resorp.= decrease Na resorp= water goes to pee!
33
what happens at DESCENENDING loop of henle?
only water leaves tubule to go towards blood (impermeable to NaCl)
34
what happens at ASCENDING loop of henle?
water cannot do anything here. NaCl &K all cotransport out to blood via Na/K ATPase
35
what is a INHIBITOR @ascending limb that blocks the NaCl&K cotransport? what disease can happen from this?
diuretic furosemide= increase EXCRETION= more pee with less resorption---can lead to hypokalemia= low K
36
what happens at distal tubule?
unless there's Aldosterone from adrenal glands or ADH water will not do anything here. mostly just Na, Ca (passive into cell, active to blood) and Cl cotransport to blood
37
what hormone enhances the Ca channel to increase Ca absorption?
PTH parathyroid
38
what INHIBITS @ the distal tuble...stopping NaCl cotransport to blood?
diuretic (thiazide)= more pee!

51
how does atrial natriuretic factor affect urine formation?
atrial cells that regulate Na sense volume expansion on atrial wall causing 1. vasodilation 2. decrease aldosterone=decrease angio2= vasodilate 3. decrease renin---all leads to more Na excreted=more water excreted!
52
increasing K levels will ___ aldosterone levels?
increase K = increase Aldosterone= decrease BP by increasing plasma K
53
if a pt has diabetc acidosis, why do they have to watch K levels when using insulin treatment?
insulin promotes decrease of K levels in blood by moving them INTO cells, but you could move too MUCH out of the cell causing "hypokalemia" if they originally had too low of K levels
54
is it harder for body to deal with alkalosis or acidosis? why?
harder to deal with alkalosis because there is a loss of H+ which causes an increase in bicarbonate (since you can't turn it into h2o and CO2)= body then decreases respiration to preserve HCO3 which just makes things MORE basic
55
does the parasymp. or the symp. system regulate micturition (urination?)
PARASYMP!! mediates internal spincter contraction and relaxation
56
what is the effect of atrial natriuretic factor? what type of patients are these?
bed ridden pts. heart cells sense "stretching" and more Na is excreted= more water in pee too! (leads to DIURESIS= bad)
57
how does aldosterone regulate kidneys?
high K in blood signals adrenal glands to produce aldosterone which keeps does water retention via Na resorption
(and K excretion)
58
how does Insulin affect K balance in blood/plasma?
more insulin= more K into cells and out of blood---but can cause cardiac arrest of to little K is in blood as in diabetics w/ ketoacidosis
