Kidney Additional Functions
Maintains BP

Erythropoietin
Regulates 1,25 Vitamin D3
Renin production

Gluconeogenesis
Regulators of GFR
Vasoconstriction of afferent arteriole decreases GFR
- Sympathetics
- Catecholamines
- Endothelin

Vasoconstriction of efferent arteriole increases GFR
- Renin / Angiotensin II

Vasodilation increases GFR
- Prostaglandin E2, I2
- NO
Aldosterone, ANP, PTH & Vitamin D3
Aldosterone - Increases sodium and thus water, decreases K
ANP - Decreases Na & thus water
PTH - Increase Ca2+ but decreases PO4
Vit D3 - Indirectly counters PTH
GFR rate & Filtration cutoff.
120ml/min 180L/d about 20% of plasma.

70kD is cutoff but high negative charge also traps most proteins.
Kf & Influences
Filtration coefficient 12.5ml/min/mmHg

HTN & Diabetes decreases capillary surface area & Increase glomerular capillary membrane thickness.

Reducing Kf
Functional anatomy, Transport mechanisms & Regulation
PCT - 50%, Na H+ exchanger
Descending limb - 20%
TAL - 20% NKCC in
DCT - 5% Na Cl cotransporter in
Collecting duct - 5% Just sodium

-Aldosterone & ATII increases expression of Na/K ATPase
- Aldosterone increases Na+ in DCT
- ATII increases Na/H exchanger in PCT
Drug classes on kidney function
Na/K - Ace inhibitors & Aldosterone antagonists

Na/H - Ace inhibitors & Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors 50%

NKCC - Loop diuretics 20%

Na-Cl - Thazides 5%

Na+ - Aldosterone antagonists 5%

* Aldosterone antagonists are K+ Sparing.
