|
PCT |
Cuboidal cells w/microvilli for surface area diffusion. Majority of reabsorption happens here (99% nutrients, 60-70% water 60-70% Na+ & Cl-) |
|
Nephron loop, descending |
Reabsorb water, concentrates tubular fluid. Permeable to water, but not solutes. |

|
Passive reabsorption |
Osmosis (water follows salt), facilitated diffusion (Na+ leak channels), cotransport (Na+ & glucose), countertransport (Na+ out of tube fluid, H+ in) |

|
Strong acids
|
Complete dissociation & liberation of H+ in water |
|
Weak acids |
Low dissociation & liberation of H+. Most stays in acid form.
|
|
acidosis |
pH below 7.35 |
|
alkalosis |
pH above 7.45 |
|
volatile acids |
acids can leave solution & enter atmosphere |
|
fixed acids |
do not leave solution until filtered out |
|
organic acids |
byproducts of metabolism |
|
Protein Buffer system |
Fast acting, but limited response. Proteins in cells/plasma can bind H+ on ends/carboxyl group can dissociate to provide H+. Hb can take up CO2/H+ to quickly buffer blood. |
|
Carbonic Acid Buffer system |
Strongest, most powerful, uses lungs. Lungs <=> CO2 + H2O <=>H2CO3 <=> H+ + HCO3 <=> ||Na+ + HCO3 <=> NaHCO3 (bicarb reserve)|| |
|
Phosphate Buffer system |
Important for buffering ICF & urine. H+ combines with HPO42 to form H2PO4. Na2HPO4 in cell reserve can provide HPO4 also. H2PO4 <=> H+ + PO42 and 2Na+ + HPO42 <=> Na2HPO4 |
|
Respiratory acidosis |
Inability to remove CO2 created. Lower pH, up PCO2. Mainly carbonic-acid buffer system.
RR up, kidneys secrete H+, other buffers take H+, bicarb reserve mobilizes. |
|
Respiratory alkalosis |
Hyperventilation gets rid of CO2. Up pH, lowers PCO2.
RR down, kidneys secrete HCO3, other buffers release H+, bicarb goes back in reserve. |
|
Metabolic acidosis |
Lactic acidosis (not enough O2) or keto acidosis (diabetes/starvation. Up H+, lowers pH. Severe diarrhea can cause HCO3 loss, lower pH. If kidneys can't excrete H+ (diuretics, glomerulonephritis). Na+ needs reabsorbed to excrete H+. |
|
Metabolic alkalosis |
Rare, but very deadly. Alkaline tide from secretion of HCl in stomach, severe vomiting. RR down, urine HCO3 up. Control vomiting, possibly administer ammonium cholride NH4Cl |
