How does Na move as it moves along a nephron?
PCT: 2/3 is reabsorbed
Desc Loop: impermeable
Thin Asc Limb: passive reabs
Thick Asc Limb: Transported
DCT: reabsorbed (transported)
Collecting Duct: ENaC moves it
Na Movement in Proximal Tubule is via?
Na Co-Transporter (w/ glucose, phosphate, or AA's)
Na/H Exchanger
NaCl Co-transporter
How is Na moved in Thick Asc Limb?
Na/K/2Cl Co-Transporter
what part of the nephron is impermeable to water?
Asc Limb
How is Na moved in DCT?
NaCl Co-Transporter (different one than in Prox Tubule)
what other ion is affected by NaCl Co-Transporter in DCT?
Calcium
Who moves Na in the cortical and maybe medullary Collecting Ducts?
ENaC
What is responsible for activating/increasing ENaC?
Aldosterone does in the cortical CD's, but not medullary
what is another ionic role of the collecting duct?
H+ secretion to maintain pH
Regulators of Na Excretion?
GFR
Aldosterone
Atrial Natriuretic Peptide
Pressure Natriuresis
Natritropes
Examples of natritropes?
Sympathetic nerves
Ang II
NO
Endothelin
Regulation of H2O excretion?
passive reabsorption
ADH aka vasopressin
Regulation of K+ Excretion?
Passive Reabsorption and Secretion
Aldosterone increases K transporters in response to inc in plasma [K]
Tubular Flow Rate (inc TFR-->Inc K excretion
General Classes of Diuretics?
Osmotic
Mercurial
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors
Thiazides
Loop
K-Sparing
Kickers w/ Osmotic Diuretics?
Non-Reabsorbable Solute
Expands ECF Volume = bad for CHF
Main example of osmotic diuretics?
Mannitol
Kickers with Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors?
More useful in acid/base issues
Weak diuretic b/c it works almost exclusively in proximal tubule
Good for acute mountain sickness
Mechanism of Loop Diuretics/
Blocks Na/K/Cl transporter of thick ascending limb
Why are loops good?
they get rid of lots real fast
cheap
Orally bioavailable
Indications for Loops?
HTN
Pulm Edema
Acute Renal Failure
CHF!!!
SE's of Loop Diuretics?
Hyperglycemia
Ototoxicity
Hypokalemic Alkalosis
Mech of Thiazide Diuretics?
Inhibit NaCl Co-Transporter in Distal Tubule
Other effects of Thiazide Diuretics?
Enhance Ca reabsorption
Indications of Thiazide Diuretics?
HTN
CHF
Kidney Stones

very safe w/ few side effects
Containdications of Thiazide Diuretics?
Antidiuretic in Diabetes Insipidus
Effects of Aldosterone Antagonists on ions?
Inc Na Excretion
Dec K excretion
Examples of Aldo Antagonists?
Spironolactone
Eplerenone
Indications for Aldo Antagonists?
Hyperaldosteronism
Adjunct w/ other diuretics
HTN
SE's of Aldo Antagonists?
Hyperkalemia
Acidosis
Gynecomastia
Mech of Na Entry Blockers?
Block ENaC
K-Sparing
Examples of Na Entry Blockers?
Amiloride
Triampterene
Indications of Na Entry Blockers?
Adjunct with other diuretics
Hypokalemia
HTN
Edema
SE's of Na Entry Blockers
Hyperkalemia
Acidosis
