17
Q

glomerular filtration rate regulation

A
  • vasocontriction/ dilation of afferent arteriole
    1. intrinsic regulation- renal auto regulation
    2. extrinsic regulation- SNS
18
Q

intrinsic controls of glomerular filtration

A
  • renal autoregulation
    1. myogenic mechanism- smooth muscle, BP
    2. tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism- ATP
19
Q

extrinsic controls of glomerular filtration

A
  • BP
    1. neural- SNS
    2. Hormonal- renin angiotensin aldosterone
20
Q

net filtration pressure equation

A

(HP glom + OPcapsule) - (HPcapsule + OPglom)

21
Q

glomerular filtration rate is directly proportional to?

A
  • net filtration pressure
  • total surface area
  • membrane permeability
22
Q

obligatory water loss

A

-min of 400 ml/ day is necessary to excrete waste

23
Q

reabsorption

A
  • return of filtered molecules
  • water not actively transported
  • active and passive tubular reabsorption
24
Q

what are the substances that follow the two routes of reabsorption?

A
  1. transcellular- across membrane

2. paracellular- next to, around

25
Q

where does 85% of the reabsorption occur?

A
  • proximal tubules

- descending loop of Henle

26
Q

sodium transport across the basolateral membrane

A
  • Na+ is most abundant
  • active transport
  • Na is pumped into interstitial space
  • Na is swept into peritubular capillaries
27
Q

transport across apical membrane

A
  • Na enters cell at apical surface
  • secondary active transport
  • Na pumped into basolateral membrane
28
Q

transport maximum

A
  • carriers for a solute are saturated, have glucose bound to is
  • want more glucose for more water and urine
29
Q

countercurrent multiplier

A
  • filtrate flow in ascending and descending limbs of juztamedullary nephrons
  • difference in concentration between asc. and dec.
30
Q

countercurrent exchanger

A
  • blood flow in limbs of vasa recta

- pressure by removing salt and water

31
Q

osmolality of cortex and plasma

A

300 mOsm

32
Q

descending limb

A
  • permeable to H2O

- impermeable to NaCL

33
Q

ascending limb

A
  • impermeable to H2O
  • permeable to salt
  • interstitial
34
Q

collecting duct

A
  • water conservation

- ANP; inhibit Na

35
Q

what are the different diuretics?

A
  1. ADH inhibitors- alc.
  2. caffeine
  3. loop diuretics
  4. osmotic diuretics
36
Q

renin angiotensin aldosterone system

A
  • decrease in BP and /or blood flow to kidneys
  • leads to release of renin
  • renin converts to angiotensinogen to angiotensin 1
  • then converted to angiotensin 2 by ACE
37
Q

what does angiotensin Ii stimulate?

A
  • ADH release
  • increase thirst
  • vasoconstriction
  • aldosterone
38
Q

renal plasma clearance

A
  • filtration in glomerular capsule begins
  • secretion finishes process
  • moved to peritubular capillaries
39
Q

excretion rate

A

C(clearance rate) = U(concentrate) x V(flow) / P(plasma)

40
Q

inulin

A

-great marker of glomerular filtration rate

41
Q

creatinin

A

-urine creatinin vs blood creatinin
