Q

Carriers have to mediate 3 things. What 3 things affect carriers?

A
  • Saturation: Limited number of binding sites, so once saturated, you’ve hit Tm and rate levels off.
  • Stereospecificity: Only transports certain conformations of a molecule (simple diffusion takes glucose, stereospecificty says only L-type glucose)
  • Competition: Chemically related solutes compete for the spot.

Q

What is MOA of glucosuria and diabetes mellitis?
Pregnancy?
Crappy Na Glucose cotransporter?

A

DM: no insulin to uptake glucose –> glucose overwhelms the cotransporter –> not as much reabsorbed

Pregnancy:
GFR increased -> increased filtration –> So much filtered that Cotransporter is overwhelmed.

Crappy Na glucose cotransporter:
Decreased Tm, glucose excreted at lower than normal plasma concentrations.

Q

Why does splay happen?

A

Reabsorption is aproaching saturation but hasn’t gotten tehre yet, glucose is still excreted. Why?
Low affinity of Na- glucose cotransporter -if glucose falls off, it’s not getting back onto another one because they’re full.
All nephrons do not have the same Tm

If GFR is increased and plasma glucose concentration remained constant, how would this affect the filtered load? Would the threshold of glucose saturation value change?
Increase filtered load Theshold would not change, but due to the increased filtration, you may have too much glucose in blood to be reabsorbed.
32
You administer a drug that inhibits Na K ATPase. What happens to reabsorption of glucose?
Na/K ATPase maintains the low Na+ content inside the cell so the SGLT transporter can use Na/glucose cotransporter to go inside. So if you messed up the Na/K, you would mess up all SGLT transporters, lowering the glucose reabsorption

The early distal tubule is responsible for what? | Late distal tubule?
Early distal tubule never permeable to water. Reabsorbs NaCl and Calcium. Contains juxtaglomerular apparatus Late segment permeable to water in presence of ADH. Principal cells and beta intercalated increase K+ Secretion. alpha intercalated reabsorb K+ for acid base balance
119
We all know aldosterone increases Na+ Reabsorption, but how?
antagonizes the Na/K ATPase so the gradient isn't maintained?
120
The alpha intercalated cells use what transporters? What is the cell's function? In what metabolic state is this stimulated?
H+ Excretion and HCO3- reabsorption Use HCO3- and H+ to use H+ ATPase and H/KATPase transporters to move hydrogen into lumen. Acidosis
121
The beta intercalated cells use what transporters? What is the cell's function? In what metabolic state is this stimulated?
H+ Reabsorption and bicarb secretion Use HCO3- and H+ to use H+ ATPase and H/KATPase transporters to move hydrogen into interstitial fluid. Alkalosis
122
What is the renal effect of ANP?
Secreted in response to high atrial pressure. Causes increased GFR and increased Sodium filtration, but no Sodium rebasorption
123
What is the renal effect of Angiotensin II?
Secreted in rresponse to low BP. Efferent arteriole constriction, increased GFR and Increased FF. Compensatory Sodium rebasorption in proximal and distal nephronto maintain circulating volume
124
What is the renal effect of PTH
Secreted in resopnse to low plasma clcium and high plasma phosphate or low plasma 1,25 OH2D3. Calcium is reabsorbed, phosophate is secreted, and 1,25OHD is produced.
125
A pt has hypervolemia hyponatremia, what do you expect the past medical history to show?
Congestive heart failure Renal impairment cirrhosis
126
A pt has euvolemic hyponatremia, what do you expect the past medical history to show?
SIADH COPD Malignancy
127
What is the difference between Central diabetes insipidus and nephrogenic insipidus
Central: Deficient secretion of ADH from hypothalamus or pituitary Nephrogenic: Renal insensitivity to ADH
128
You know this person has Diabetes insipidus. What steps do you use to find out if it's central or nephrogenic?
Test urine output Challenge with ADH Retest urine output. If the ADH fixes the problem, it'll be central
129
If the blood flwo in the vasa recta icnresaes too much, what happens?
The gradient in the loop of henle is messed up, then the urine can't get concentrated
130
Formula sheet Osmolar Clearance Olbigatory urine volume Free Water Clearance Fractional Excretion
Cosm = Uosm (V)/Posm OUV = Max slute excretion per day/Max urine concetrating ability Ch2O = V - Cosm FE= Amount of X excreted/Amount of X filtered = Ux (v)/ Px (GFR) = Ux Pcr/Px*Ucr
131
Hypoxia = Acute Renal injury. Inflammation can be a cause of that! Which is why in steril erenal inflammation, What type of alarmins are secreted? What are those released by?
DAMPs Parenchymal cells, HMGB1, Uric acid, HSP
132
Kidney cells express what CD?? Ischemic kidney cells express what CD? If these are stimulated, what happens?
TLR TLR4 Proinflammatory cytokines (Dendrites, Mascrphage, endothelial cell). Exacerbates kidney damage due to massive leukocyte and cytotoxic stuff
133
When TLR4 is stimulated, the Dendritic cell release what? Macrohpage? Endothelial cell?
Dendrite: Type I IFNs, IL12, IL1 Macrophage: IL 1 IL6 Endothelial cell;: TNF, IL6, IFN gam
134
Acute kidney infection stimualtes what immune response? Chronic Kidney disease?
Macrophages M1--> TNF alpha and IL6 INFLAMMATION Macrophage 2 --> IL 10 NOT INFLAMMATORY
135
Kidney is ischemic, so it releases _____. The Damps activate teh _______. This activates Cytokines, which activates ______. Inflammation ensues. Until chronic, and you get FIRROSIS!
DAMPs Complement Macrophages
136
This ischemia just happened, the immune response is just kicking in, what cytokines are ifrst responders?
Th17 cells, then Th1 cells TH1 activate Macrophages Treg also prouce IL10
137
What stimulates Th1? What does it relaease? Stimualtes TH2? What does it release? Stimulates TH17? What does it release?
IL12 --> TH1 --> IFNg IL4> TH2 > IL4, IL5, IL13 IL23 > TH17 > IL17
138
What does IL 17 do?
Stimulates resident renalcells to produce chemokine | - Leads to neutrophil recruitment
139
What hypersensitivities can arise in the kidney?
II and III
140
End stage renal failure. Treatment is transplant. | There are types of rejection, name them and describe.
Hyperacute rejection: Immediate; via antibody Acute rejection: Caused by T cells. dasys to weeks Chronic: months to years. caused by vascular trauma and inflammation
141
``` What are these types of graphs? Autograft Isograft Allograft Xenograft ```
Autograft - same individual Isograft: Twins Allograft: nonidentical members of same species Xenograft: Different species
142
What non-immunological facotrs are at risk with transplants?
Mechanical trauma to graft tissues - Clottin gcascade = fibrinogepeptides --> Vascular permeability increases and attracts neutrophils and macrophages --> Bradykini produces, vasodilation --> proinflammatory response, if uncontrolled result in yperacute
143
If you're getting what type of transplant, it doesn't matter your ABO?
Corneal, Heart Valve, Bone and tendon grfat
144
With HLA, how does that work?
1) Have donor cells, stick them with pt cells. If pt cells proliferate then it does not work. There was a reaction
