where does filtration occur
renal corpuscle
- bulk flow
the portion of the fluid in plasma that enters kidney that is filtered into bowman’s capsule
filtration fraction
glomerular endothelium has what
fenestrated capillaries
- optimal for filtration
Volume of fluid filtered into Bowman’s capsule per unit time
GFR
what is GFR influenced by
net filtration pressure & filtration coefficient
range of MAP where GFR is relatively constant
80-180 mmHg
if MAP is less than 80, GFR will...

where does tubuloglomerular feedback happen
ascending loop of Henle & wall of afferent arteriole
2 groups of cells in JG apparatus:
macula densa cells & granular cells
what cells secrete paracrines
macula densa
what cells secrete renin
granular cells
what paracrines do macula densa cells secrete that are vasoconstrictors
ATP & adenosine
what is a vasodilator that controls GFR
prostaglandins
apical membrane has microvilli which do what
increase SA which is good for reabsorption
how is Na reabsorbed in proximal tubule
sodium leak channel on apical side, Na/K ATPase on basolateral side
how is glucose reabsorbed in proximal tubule
SGLT co-transporter on apical side & GLUT on basolateral side
is reabsorption of urea passive or active
passive
true or false- there is usually no protein in your urine
true!
plasma concentration at which the transport protein is completely saturated
renal threshold
true or false- secretion requires energy
true
penicillin is very efficiently ____
excreted
what is used to block penicillin secretion
probenicid
the rate at which a solute is removed from the
body by excretion or metabolism
clearance
if clearance of X is greater than inulin, then there is net:
secretion

where is the majority of water loss?
in urine (1.5 L/day)

collecting ducts on basolateral side
what aquaporin is regulated by ADH
AQP 2
what are target cells of aldosterone
principal cells- in medullary collecting duct
what does aldosterone do
reabsorption of Na
