| mesangial cells are...that surround... | smooth muscle cells(modified)...loops of glomerular capillary |
| mesangial cells regulate | blood flow |
| mesangial cells reduce | surface area of capillary to dec filtration |
| urine formation happens through 3 steps | glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption and tubular secretion |
| glomerular filtration occurs in | renal corpuscle |
| glomerular filtrat = | product but it is not urine yet |
| tubular reabsorption happens along the | entire length of nephron - past the corpuscle to collecting ducts |
| tubular reabsorption happens in the | proximal tubule, loop of henle and distal convoluted tubule |
| tubular reabsorption involves moving materials from...in order to... | filtrate to blood..retain good material |
| tubular secretion is into the...and involves the... | urine...distal convoluted tubule |
| tubular secretion involves materials moved from...in order to... | blood to filtrate...remove unwated material |
| the amount excreted = | amnt filtered + amt secreted - amoutn reabsorbed |
| the amounts | vary with physiological control |
| amt excreted = amt filtered + amt secreted - amt reabsorbed: glomerular filtration & some tubular secretion | excretion > filtration |
| glomerular filtration and some tubular reabsorption | excretion < filtration |
| glomerular filtration and total tubular reabsorption | excretion< filtration (glucose) |
| filtrate components | water and small dissolved substances |
| filtrate does not consist of | cellular components or large plasma proteins/substances that are transported bound to plasma proteins |
| filtration process happens through | bulk flow - net filtration |
| net filtration involves | hydrostatic pressure (P) and osmotic force(pi) |
| hydrostatic pressure is the...vs... | blood hydrostatic pressure of capillary...bowman's space hydrostatic pressure |
| hydrostatic pressure - what is greater than what | Pgc (out) > Pbs(in) |
| net movement w/ hydrostatic pressure is | out of blood to bowman's space |
| osmotic force (pi) is the | protein concentration of glomerular capillary (no proteins in bowman's space) |
| piGC goes...which draws... | in..water in |
| net movement of Pi is | in |
| net glomerular filtration pressure = | Pgc - Pbs - PIgc or Pgc - (Pbs + PIgc) |
| filtration means you should always...and not... | filter...reabsorb in the glomerulus |
| glomerular filtrate rate is measured as | volume per unit time |
| a 70 kg person - | 180 L/24 hours or 7.5 L/hr |
| how many L of plasma is filtered how many times per day..to get rid of... | 3 L - 60 x per day..potential toxins |
| factors affecting glomerular filtration rate | mesangial cells and afferent/efferent arteriole pressure |
| mesangial cells contraction results in | dec surface area to glomerular capillaries (less ability to filter out) |
| if you vasoconstrict afferent/efferent arterioles then you | ^ resistance, dec flow into glomerular, dec filtration |
| afferent and efferent arteriole pressure involves the equation...and also... | f=change in pressure/r...NE transmitter and alpha-adrenergic receptors |
| NE does either | vasoconstriction or vasodilation |
| vasoconstriction ^...which ^...which^...which ^..which dec... | symp activity..NE...vasoconstriction...resistance...flow |
| vasodilation dec...dec..dec..dec..^ | symp activity...NE...vasodilation...resistance..flow |
| effects of altering afferent arteriole diameter | vasoconstriction > ^ resistance > dec flow > dec filtration rate |
| vasoconstriction of afferent arteriole means pressure | dissipates in overcoming resistance |
| vasodilating the afferent arteriole | > dec resistance > ^ flow > ^ filtration rate |
| effects of altering efferent artiole are | opposite of afferent arteriole |
| vasoconstricting efferent arteriole...which essentially... | ^ resistance > dec flow > ^ filtration rate ...backs up blood |
| vasodilating efferent arteriole > ..which essentially means | dec resistance > ^ flow > dec filtration rate...blood flows through quickly |
| filtered load is the amount of | non-protein or non-protein bound substance (bec they can't be filtered)filtered per day |
| filtered load = | glomerular filtration rate x plasma concentration of the substance |
| net tubular reabsorption or net secretion is the amount in | urine v filtered load |
| filtered does not equal | excretion |
| possibilities for net tubular reabsorption or net secretion | filtered = excretion (don't reabosrb or secret), filtered < excretion (secretion), filtered > excretion (reabsorption) |
| why do we reabsorb? | bec we way over-filter in glomerular filtration - we want to return good material to the blood |
| mechanisms of reabsorption directions | from tubule lumen to interstitial fluid or from interstitial fluid to capillary |
| from tubule lumen to interstitial fluid the stuff can be reabsorbed through either | diffusion or mediated transport |
| diffusion from tubule means that you | pass between cells (concentration gradients) |
| mediated transport is...through the... | active transprot...transcellular pathway |
| going from interstitial fluid to capillary can happen through either | diffusion or bulk flow |
| reabsorption by diffusion follows | concentration gradient |
| reabsorption by mediated transport is often | secondary active transport |
| secondary active transport sets up | Na gradient using the pump |
| secondary active transport means that the | second compound follows na movment (like w/ glucose) |
| transport maximum is abbreviated as...and it means there is a limit to... | Tmax...rate of transport |
| limiting the rate of transport involves | # of transporters, turn-over rate of transporters |
| if filtered load > tmax then... | substance present in urine |
| filtered load > tmax then substance present in urine results in...and involves... | glucosuria (plasma [glucose] > 180 mg/dl)...water soluble vitamins like vitamin C, B complex |
| regulation of transporters includes | hormones, paracrine an autocrine chemicals |
| tubular secretion is into the...tubular reabsorption is into the... | filtrate...blood stream |
| tubular secretion removes...from.. | unwated material...peritubular capillary to tubule lumen |
| tubular secretion increases...and includes... | the amount removed by glumerular filtration ...H+, K+, creatinine and drugs |
| mechanisms of secretion include going from...and to... | capillary (or interstitial fluid) to interstitial fluid (tubule lumen) |
| secretion from capillary to interstitial fluid is done through | diffusion and bulk flow |
| secretion from interstitial fluid to tubule lumen happens through | diffusion into the tubule or mediated transport |
| diffusion into the tubule means that the substance | passes between the cells |
| mediated transport involves...throught the... | active transport...transcellular pathway |
| secretion by diffusion follows | concentration gradient |
| secretion by mediated transport is often...and it involves...and it does... | 2ndary active transport...transport maximum ...transporters |
| 2ndary active transport sets up...and the second compound... | na+ gradient...follows na+ movement |
| transport maximum is abbreviated...and itmeans there is a limit to | Tmax...rate of transport (# of transporters and turn-over rate of transporters) |
| regulation of transporters via | hormones and paracrin/autocrine chemicals |
| other functions of the tubules(kidneys) include | metabolic action - anabolism and catabolism |
| anabolism involves...and catabolism involves | gluconeogensis...cellular breakdown of organics and some peptides |
| the peptides weren't | broken down by the intestines or processed by the liver |
| renal clearance is the v olume of | plasma you removed a solute from |
| clerance of s = | mass s excreted per time/plasma [s] |
| CS | (US * V)/PS |
| cs = | clearance of S |
| US = | urine concentration of S |
| V = | urine volume per unit time |
| PS= | plasma concentration of S |
| (US*V) = | total amount in the urine |
| example of clearance: CS = 5L/hr means the substance is removed | from 5 L of plasma in 1 hour |
| clearance tells you how well the | glomerulus and bowman's space is working |
| inulin clearance is perfect for...because... | measuring clearance...it is filtered but not reabsorbed or secreted |
| inulin is a..which means you get it in the body... | polysaccharide not normally found in the body...intravenously |
| inulin clearance = ...thus it can be used to... | GFR...montior GFR |
| P[IN] = 4 mg/L, U(IN) = 300 mg/L, V = .1 L/hr, C(IN) =? | (300 * .1)/4 = 30/4 = 7.5L/hr |
| if the clearance is less than 7.5L/hr then the kidneys | aren't working properly |
| other compounds besides inulin are | either reabsorbed or secreted |
| clearance does not = | GFR |
| howwould you get clearance < GFR?...such as with... | reabsorbing...calcium |
| how would you get clearance > GFR?...which is seen with... | more secretion...creatine from skeletal muscle (slight increase over GFR) |
| clinically, creatinine is used to determine..because... | clearance...it is only slightly > than GFR |
| how would you get clearance = 0...as seen with.. | completely reabsorb....glucose |
| urination involves the | urinary bladder and urethra |
| the urinary bladder is controlled by what 3 things | detrusor muscle, internal and external urethral sphincter |
| the detrusor muscle in the normal state is...and it includes...that do what... | relaxed(so it can fill and stretch with urine)...stretch receptors...tell brain the amt of stretch |
| internal and external urethral sphincter in the normal state are | contracted/closed |
| neural innervation or control of the detrusor muscle | parasymp |
| neural control of internal urethral sphincter | sympathetic stimulation |
| neural control of external urethral sphincter | somatic motor stimuatlion (voluntary) |
| micturation involves the...which involves stimulation of..and inhibition of... | stretch reflex...detrusor...internal and external urethral sphincters |
| voluntary control means you can | prevent and promote micturition |
| prevent micturition through | stimulation of internal and external urethral sphincters |
| promote micturition through | inhibition of internal and external sphincters |
