Glomerulotubular balance – reabsorption matched GFR within limits.
Mostly occurs in the ____ tubule |
proximal
|
|
glomerulotubular balance refers to the fact that the total rate of reabsorption increases as the filtered load increases, even though the percentage of GFR reabsorbed in the proximal tubule remains relatively constant at about ___ %.
|
65
|
|
Glomerulotubular balance acts as a second line of defense to buffer the effects of spontaneous changes in GFR on urine output. (The first line of defense is what?)
|
includes the renal autoregulatory mechanisms, especially tubuloglomerular feedback, which help prevent changes in GFR
|
|
Peritubular Capillary net Reabsorption pressure is what?
|
10 mmHg
Pc = 13 out Pic = 32 in Pif = 6 in Piif= 15 out -13 + 32 + 6 - 15 |
|
Peritubular Capillary Reabsorption: what is K constant?
|
12.4 ml/min/mmHg
|
|
The normal rate of peritubular capillary reabsorption is about ___ ml/min.
|
124
|
|
Because the peritubular capillary reabsorption rate is normally about 124 ml/min and net reabsorption pressure is 10 mm Hg, Kf normally is about ____ ml/min/mm Hg.
|
12.4
|
|
Because filtration fraction is defined as the ratio of GFR/renal plasma flow, increased filtration fraction can occur as a result of increased GFR or decreased ____.
|
renal plasma flow
|
|
Increased Arterial Pressure Decreases Na+ Reabsorption. this is known as Pressure ____

Natriuresis
|
|
Increased peritubular capillary hydrostatic pressure: what is the effect on renin and aldosterone.
What about prostaglandins and EDRF |
Decreased renin and aldosterone
Increased release of intrarenal natriuretic factors - prostaglandins - EDRF |
|
The primary site of aldosterone action is on the _____
|
principal cells of the cortical collecting tubule
|
|
ANF's effect on NaCl reabsorption
|
decreases it
|
|
The mechanism by which aldosterone increases sodium reabsorption while at the same time increasing potassium secretion is by ______
|
stimulating the Na-K ATPase pump on the basolateral side of the cortical collecting tubule membrane
Also, Na permeability of lumen is incr |
|
Aldosterone increases H+ secretion from what cells?
|
Intercalated
|
|
Excess aldosterone disease
|
Conn's syndrome
Na+ retention, hypokalemia, alkalosis, hypertension |
|
Aldosterone deficiency disease
|
Addison’s disease
Na+ wasting, hyperkalemia, hypotension |
|
Factors that increase aldosterone secretion

Angiotensin II
Increased K+ adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) (permissive role ) |
|
Factors that decrease aldosterone secretion
|
Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF)
Increased Na+ concentration (osmolality) |
|
Angiotensin II directly stimulates sodium reabsorption where?
|
in the proximal tubules, the loops of Henle, the distal tubules, and the collecting tubules
|
|
ADH binds to specific __ receptors in the late distal tubules, collecting tubules, and collecting ducts, increasing the formation of ________ and activating protein kinases
|
V2
cyclic AMP |
|
Angiotensin II increases tubular Na reabsorption and ______ intracellular cAMP
|
decreases
|
|
Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) Secreted by _____
|
posterior pituitary
|
|
receptors that cause posterior pituitary to release ADH
|
osmoreceptors-
|
|
increasing the formation of cyclic AMP and activating protein kinases stimulates the movement of an intracellular protein, called _____ to the luminal side of the cell membranes.
|
aquaporin-2 (AQP-2),
|
|
Disease characterized by insufficient ADH
|
"Central” Diabetes insipidus
increased plasma osmolarity, hypernatremia, excess thirst |

|
|
Clearance formula
|
C = (U/P)*V
