BTK
required for B cell development. Deficiency causes X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA).
29
CD21
bind to C3b opsonized antigen during cross linking
30
NKCC channel
- TAL symport Na+, K+ (or NH4+), Cl-, Cl- - needs ROMK to work - main transport of Na+ at TAL
31
ROMK channel
- TAL K+ secretion - allows NKCC to work - responsible for reabsorption of Mg+ because causes filtrate to become positive pushing Mg+ to blood via paracellular transport
32
Loop diuretics
inhibit NKCC - Na+, K+, and Cl- loss - can result in hypokalemia and hypocalcemia because no longer a positive gradient pushing positive ions via paracellular diffusion
33
NCC channel
- DCT1 Na+ and Cl- symport - main Na+ transport in DCT1 - Thiazide diuretic-sensitive channel
34
BK channel
upregulated in the DCT2 and principal cell (CD) as a result of shear stress from increase flow rate
35
aldosterone effect at DCT
increases activity of ROMK, BK, NCC, ENaC, Na+-K+-ATPase (↑Na+ absorption, ↑K+ secretion)
36
upregulated ENac in collecting duct principal cells
``` Insulin ADH/AVP Catecholamines ↑Tubular fluid flow Renal AngII Aldosterone ```
37
upregulates ROMK in collecting duct principal cells
Aldosterone | ↑dietary K+
38
Tubuloglomerular Feedback
- changes in systemic BP doesn't have a huge impact because of Tubuloglomerular Feedback and Myogenic autoregulation 1. high Na+ concentrations in DCT (means high GFR) 2. activation of macula densa cells that release ATP/ADP and activate extraglomerular mesangial cells via paracrine signaling 3. extraglomerular mesangial cells constrict the afferent capillary reducing GFR
39
Myogenic autoregulation
- changes in systemic BP doesn't have a huge impact because of Tubuloglomerular Feedback and Myogenic autoregulation - Myogenic autoregulation: an increase of pressure on the renal capillaries causes smooth muscles to contract via membrane depolarization opens voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels
40
Congenital nephrotic syndrome cause of edema
Leakage of excessive protein into the GF. This results in a decrease of oncotic pressure in the systemic capillaries because of hypoproteinmia. H2O will leave the capillary to the interstitial fluid causing edema -nephrin problem (holds pedicles together)
41
Net filtration pressure
glomerular capillary blood pressure – (plasma-colloid osmotic pressure + Bowman’s capsule hydrostatic pressure
42
Prostaglandin
- released when NaCl is low in DCT due to low Na+ - AA: dilated - EA: dilated - increases renal blood flow but no effect on GFR - NSAIDs inhibit prostaglandin release
43
Atrial Neuritic Peptide
- released from heart when it has been stretched too far - AA: dilate - EA: constrict - Inc GFR
44
Sympathetic stimulation
- AA: constrict - EA: normal - decrease GFR and renal blood flow but increase in Na+/H2O reabsorption
45
Angiotensin High and Low Levels
``` LOW -AA: normal -EA: constrict -Inc GFR HIGH -AA: constrict -EA: constrict -Dec GFR ```
46
Filtration fraction and equation
Amount of plasma that gets filtered = 20% (normal) FF = GFR / renal plasma flow
47
Filtration load and equation
The amount of substance that is filtered per time unit Filtration load = GFR x Plasma conc
48
increases renin
1. reduced AA BP 2. Dec NaCl in DCTn (means hyponatremia (low Na+) inc renin -> inc Na+ reabsorption 3. inc sympathetic stimulation (via b1-adrenergic receptors)
49
Effects of Angiotensin II
1. Constricts arteriolar smooth muscle, causing mean arterial pressure to rise 2. Stimulates the reabsorption of Na+ via aldosterone 3. Release ADH from hypothalamus and activates the thirst center 4. Constricts efferent arterioles (DECREASES PERITUBULAR CAPILLARY HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE WHICH INCREASE FLUID REABSORPTION) 5. Causes glomerular mesangial cells to contract (dec surface area for filtration
50
ACEinh/ARB + diuretic + NSAID
- diuretic decreases BP - normally anigiotensin will be released to keep GFR normal even with hypotension by constricting EA - NSAIDs block prostaglandin and so no dilation of AA
51
NCB1

58
RPF
UPAH x V ÷ (arterialPAH –venousPAH) Cpah or ERPF / .9 -ERPF = CPAH
59
parathyroid hormone controls
Na+/phosphate uptake is under the control of PTH at the PCT (reduces the Tm for phosphate ions) -Ca2+ reabsorption (vitamin D3)
60
Osmotic diuretics
- mannitol (I.V.) and glycerol (oral) - increase the osmolarity of the filtrate keeping water in the filtrate and not allowing for a lot of reabsorption - Useful in acute conditions such as cerebral edema and to reduce I.O. pressure in glaucoma
61
Thick ascending limb vs thin
The thin segment is permeable to water only, the thick is primarily permeable to salts
62
Tm secretion equation
(Uy x V) - (GFR or Cinu x Py)
63
loop diuretics (lasix)
- inhibit NKCC resulting in K+ and Na+ loss - Thiazides downregulate TRPM6 causing hypomagnesemia - Side effects: hypokalemia, hypocalcemia, hypomagnesia, increase urine bc increase filtrate solute
64
NKCC expression and phosphorylation is increased by
ADH
65
Change of osmolality along the nephron
PCT: isosmotic Descending tubule: hyper osmotic (H20 reabsorbed) TAL: hypotonic (Na+, Mg+, Ca2+ reabsorbed) DCT: hyposmotic
66
loop diuretics causing hypertrophy
- loop diuretic inhibit Na+ reabsorption in the TAL - this causes high levels of Na+ at the DCT1 which causes hypertrophy of the cells there and increase in NCC concluding in resistance to loop diuretics (thiazide)
67
ENaC filtration
-Influx of Na+ causes luminal fluid NEGATIVE -> increased paracellular absorption of Cl-
68
Aldosterone increases
- ENaCs (Na+ absorption) and ROMK (K+ secretion) trafficking and expression. - aldosterone increases activity of ROMK, BK, NCC, ENaC, Na+-K+-ATPase (↑Na+ absorption, ↑K+ secretion) - H+ ATPase and AE1
69
NCC is increased by
aldosterone, angiotensin II, insulin and ADH

``` Insulin ADH Catecholamines Tubular fluid flow Renal AngII ```
73
Diabetes insipidus
is caused by the failure of the posterior pituitary gland to release vasopressin (ADH) Gestational: placental vasopressinase break down mother's vasopressin Central: lack of ADH or hypothalamic osmoreceptors Nephrogenic: lack of functioning ADH receptors or AQP2 Amyloid degeneration, polycystic kidney
74
Syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH)
-continued secretion or action of ADH -normal levels of Na+ but significant retention of H2O Hyponatremia Concentrated urine Elevated urinary Na -Individual that has hyponatremia  give Na+ will drag H2O out of the neurons causing demyelination destroying the brain
75

85
Isosmotic overhydration
-Caused by administration of large volume of isotonic NaCl and edema
86
Hyperosmotic overhydration
Cases: Oral or parentral intake of large amounts of hypertonic fluid
87
Hyposmotic overhydration
Excessive ingestion of water and inappropriate ADH secretion
88
The hypothalamic thirst center osmoreceptors are stimulated by and release
- ↑ Plasma osmolality of 2–3% - Angiotensin II or baroreceptor input - Dry mouth - Substantial decrease in blood volume or pressure -Release AVP (ADH)
89
Congestive heart failure and AVP production
During CHF the heart cannot pump blood effectively so the kidneys sees this as decrease blood volume. As a result there is an increase in AVP (ADH) production. This causes water retention and HYPONATREMIA -> edema
90
AVP signaling
1. AVP binds to V2 receptor on CD epithelial cell 2. activate G protein AC to make cAMP 3. cAMP -> inc PKA increase aquaporins in collecting duct
91
ADH stimulation causes
↑aquaporin-2 at connecting tubules, cotical CD and inner medullary CD ↑Na+K+ATPase at the distal nephron ↑NKCC and ROMK at the TAL ↑NCC at DCT1 ↑ENaC at DCT2 and CD ↑ urea transporter (UT-A1) at the inner medulla
92
What all causes aldosterone release
angiotensin II elevated K+ levels in the ECF sympathetic stimulation -slow effect (hours to days)
93
Estrogens

95
Glucocorticoids
Increase Na+ reabsorption and promote edema
96
increases K+ uptake to the cells
insulin | EPI
97
What influences Ca2+ reabsorption
- PTH (via TRPV5) - Calcium reabsorption and phosphate excretion go hand in hand - PTH inhibits phosphate reabsorption the PCT by decreasing the Tm
98
Low EABV
1. fire baroreceptors -> sympathetic stimulation -> inc renin via b1-adrenergic receptors 2. AA constriction -> - less solutes filtered - more efficient absorption 3. inc angiotensin II -> inc Na+/H2O absorption
99
hyperaldosterone
- hypernatremia (high Na+) - hypervolemia -> hypertension - hypokalemia
100
hypoaldosterone
- hyponatremia - hypovolemia -> drop in BP - hyperkalemia
101
FOXP3 mutation
APEX

103
Hyperacute rejection cause
preexisting antibodies against donor ABO or HLA class 1
104
Acute rejection cause
alloreactive T cells via direct or indirect allorecognition
105
Corticosteroids

alloreactive T cell via indirect recognition
113
Complement-dependent cell cytotoxicity (CDCC)
classical pathway of complement is activated by IgM (best) or IgG (IgG3 & IgG1>>>IgG2, not IgG4). Complement cascade terminates with the membrane attack complex (MAC), which perforates (& kills) target
114
Antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC)
activating receptors on NK cells include FcRγIII. When NK cells bind IgG Fcr via FcRγIII, NK cells induce apoptosis of target cell (perforin & granzyme).
115
Clonal deletion
multivalent antigen -> strong BCR cross-linking | -mediated centrally and peripherally by Fas/FasL
116
Receptor editing
requires continued RAG expression and continued rearrangement of light chain V-J segments. Receptor editing is UNIQUE to B cells
117
Anergy
- low valence, soluble antigen; unresponsive to signaling, Anergic B cells cannot be activated by their cognate antigen even with T cell help. - B cell becomes activated by binding with protein but doesn't get Th help -> anergy - T cell recognizes antigen presented on an MHC molecule without costimulation
118
BTK
is required for B cell development. Deficiency causes X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA)
119
Agammaglobulinemia
is a group of inherited immune deficiencies characterized by a low concentration of antibodies in the blood due to the lack of particular lymphocytes in the blood and lymph
120
Subcapsular macrophages and follicular dendritic cells
-low endocytic activity, so they display whole, unprocessed antigen
121
required for naive B cell recognition
CD21 (C3d-opsonized pathogen (antigen) will induce cross-linking of co-Rc (CD21 complex)) CD19 CD81 Igalpha and Igbeta
122
dark zone
- proliferation/blasting/ clonal expansion (“centroblasts”) | - SHM and CSR
123
light zone
- antigen capture and linked recognition (“centrocytes”) | - B cell test affinity with FDCs then bind with Tfh -> recognition initiates clonal expansion again
124
Memory B cells
-100X increased frequency over naïve B cells specific for same antigen -BCR with increased affinity -Populate lymph nodes, spleen, circulation Are first antibody-secreting (plasma) cells at onset of secondary response
125
Memory T cells
- 100-1000X increased frequency over naïve T cells specific for same antigen - Effector memory T cells localize to tissues & respond rapidly to re-stimulation - Central memory T cells remain in lymphoid tissues & are slower & less effective effectors upon re-stimulation—likely have greater role in maintaining memory pool
126
Long-lived plasma cells
- Antibody with increased affinity | - Predominantly populate bone marrow
127

IgA nephritis where IgA gets lodges in the glomerulus | -Excess monomeric IgA w/defective galactosylation
130
Hyper IgE syndrome
-is caused by (AD or AR) mutations in txn factors important for Th17 polarization, resulting in aberrant Th2 differentiation. Abundant IL-4 -> IgE
131
Wiskott-Aldrich
- syndrome is caused by (X-linked) mutations in WASp | - Decreased IgM, normal IgG, elevated IgA/IgE, and T cell defects
132
immune-privileged tissues
central nervous system, the eye, and parts of the reproductive systems - hard for T cells and Ig to cross barrier to enter - Fas/FasL expressed that induces apoptosis in T cells that gain entry
133
Activation-induced cell death (AICD)
occurs in T cells that have been exposed repeatedly to the same antigen via Fas/FasL
134
Fas/FasL
- FasL expressed predominantly in activated T & NK cells - FasL triggers death of cells expressing Fas - Fas and FasL are both found on the CTL and when two cells get close together Fas binds to FasL and apoptosis occurs to cell presenting Fas
135
autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS)
-lack of Fas/FasL
136
Foxp3+ deg
IPEX—Immune dysregulation, Polyendocrinopathy, Enteropathy, X-linked
137
Tregs
- express high affinity IL-2R that allow them to out compete effector T cells for IL-2 - can bind to MHC II molecules that posses self antigens and harmless environmental antigens - inhibit neighboring T cells by secreting the cytokines interleukin 10 (IL-10) or TGF-β
138
natural Tregs (Tregs)
in the thymus can be produced if a thymocyte recognizes self antigen plus MHC class II at high affinity producing the trans factor FOXP3
139
Induced Tregs (iTregs)
naive CD4+ cells that are exposed to TGF-B in the periphery
140
If an immature B cell is producing antibody in response to antigen in the gut in the presence of TGF-β, it will class switch to immunoglobulin
IgA
141
CTLA-4
- expressed by activated T cells and has a higher affinity for B7 than CD28 - Regulates proliferation & effector responses to limit immune-mediated pathology
142
CTLA-4 def
autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS).
143
PD-1
- PD-1 is unregulated on T cell when there is persistent activation - PD-1 will bind to PD-1L on normal/abnormal cell inhibiting T cell function - PD-1 blockers bind to either PD-1 or PD-1L blocking contraction allowing T cells effector function to persist
144
Atopy
an immediate hypersensitivity reaction to environmental antigens mediated by IgE
145
Allergic March
individuals develop different types of allergy throughout their lives
146
Allergens
antigens which trigger allergic reactions
147
peanut allergen
ARA h2 early in life, ARA h8 later in life
148
Cardiac hypertrophy is caused by
increased BP via catacholemines and angiotensin II which result in an increase of - calcineurin ->NFAT - CaMKII -> MEF-2 - IL-6 -> Jak/STAT pathway
149
Physiologic hypertrophy pathway
- PKB-P -> Akt -> uTOR -> UEBP -> CIF4E -> proliferation - activation of uTOR inhibits UEBP which inhibits CIF4E - inhibition of an inhibitor allows CIF4E (phosphorylated) to be turn on
150
glucocorticoids myostatin NF-kappaB
glucocorticoids: class of corticosteroid important for muscle protein degradation myostatin: inhibitor of muscle fiber growth NF-kappaB: key signaling hub and transcription factor
151
cause of hyperplasia

metaplasia Gastroesophogeal junction: -chronic acid reflex causes stomach cells to migrate to esophagus
153
Mechanisms of cell injury
- ATP depletion: dec Ox Phos -> dec ATP -> inc glycolysis, dec protein production, Na+/K+ ATPase disruption - mitochondrial damage: inc cytosolic Ca2+, inc ROS, lipid peroxidase - entry of Ca2+ - membrane damage - protein misfolding, DNA damage
154
Reperfusion restores blood flow to ischemic tissues and can promote recovery, but can also exacerbate injury. HOW?
ROS “burst” upon reperfusion (either due to damaged mitochondria or damaged antioxidant defense mechanisms); intracellular calcium overload; inflammatory response elicited by neutrophil recruitment/influx + activation of complement system
155
Proteotoxic stress
- build up of misfolded protein due to lack of chaperones | - results in inc chaperone, dec protein synthesis, and inc protein degradation
156
Players of type I hypersensitivity
``` Antigen (Allergen) APC TH2 cell B cell IL-4 Plasma Cells IgE FceR1 receptor (high affinity) Mast Cell (or Eosinophil) Inflammatory molecules ```
157
Serum Sickness Vasculitis
- receive a passive immunization containing animal Ig - upon second treatment Type III hypersensitivity reaction can occur that attacks animal Ig - diphtheria, tetanus, and gangrene
158
issues with plasma creatine and GFR
- age and muscle can determine change levels - must have a large change in GFR for creatinine levels to change - secreted
159
ACE-inhibitors diuretics
``` Reduce angiotensin II Reduce blood pressure INCREASE GLOMERULAR FILTRATION Increase K+ retention and Na+ loss (loss of aldosterone production) Reduce ADH secretion ```
160
infected in medulla of kidney
- no blood flow to the medulla resulting in glomerular filtration and reabsorption of solutes at the PCT and DCT but no blood flow to the loop of henle and collecting duct where H2O is absorbed - result: increase in dilute urine
161
IL-8
neutrophil recruitment
162
AVP is released in response to Suppression
Increased plasma Osmolarity Drop in plasma volume (effective arterial blood volume/EABV) Angiotensin II Thirst Emotional stress Pain, trauma, anesthetics, morphine, nicotine Suppression: ANP and alcohol
163
Why do we make more urine when swimming in colder water?
Bc vasoconstriction inc the effective plasma volume causing water to go into urine to reduce volume
164
change in AVP mainly because
osmolarity more than volume
165
Increase in arterial blood pressure leads to
increased urine output (pressure diuresis)
166
Locally at the kidneys low EABV will
- inc renin by action of stretch receptors at AA - dec net filtration pressure - dec peritubular hydrostatic pressure and speed  increase the renal reabsorption
167
where does gluconeogenesis occurs in the kidneys
cortex
168
main source for renal gluconeogenesis

170
Ammonia transport at PCT
-NH3 diffusion to lumen -NH4+ transport via NHE3 (exchange Na+ to cell for NH4+ to lumen) Substituting NH4+ for K+
171
Ammonia transport at TAL
- NH4+ uses NKCC2 | - Basolateral NHE4 (mutation causes ↑↑ ammonia in urine) exchanges Na+ (in) for NH4+ (to blood)
172
Ammonia transport at CD
Rhbg: excrete NH4+ (on base lateral side only) Rhcg: excretes NH4+ (on basolateral and lumenal side)
173
Effect of acidosis on ammoniagenesis
↑ glutamine transporters (SN1) ↑ glutamate dehydrogenase/GDH (yields NH4+) ↑ phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase/PEPCK (eliminate the reverse reaction) ↑ NHE3 at PCT ↑ NKCC2 at TAL ↑Rhcg expression and apical translocation
174

180
Hypertension effect on blood pH
- decreases NHE3 so there is more Na+ secretion | - results in increase H+ in blood -> acidosis
181
Na+ effect on blood pH
- decrease NHE3 -> H+ accumulation in blood - increase ENaC - filtrate more negative -> blood becomes alkalotic - more K+ secreted -> hypokalemic -> metabolic alkolosis
182
diabetes mellitus
so much glucose in the blood that it is excreted and the huge filtration load retains water in the lumen
183
effect on vasopressin (ADH)
- recognized by hypothalamus osmoreceptors -> released from posterior pituitary - decreased vascular pressure also stimulates vasopressin release but - angiotensin increases release - osmolarity has a greater effect than volume - alcohol inhibit vasopressin release -> inc urine
184

vasopressin: fast bc peptide aldosterone: slow bc steriod
185
UT-A1 and A3
urea transporter at the inner medulla | -inc with ADH
186
increase BP effect on pH
- metabolic acidosis bc decreases NHE3 activity causing retention of H+ - less ENaC activity -> filtrate not as negative so less of a gradient for H+ to move to filtrate
187
inhibition of CAII
- decrease blood pH | - dec HCO3-
188
aldosterone effect on pH
- decreases pH - stimulate H+ATPase - stimulate ENaC which makes filtrate more negative favoring H+ secretion - promotes K+ secretion via ROMK causing hypokalemia -> cellular K+ to blood and H+ into cell -> alkalosis
