some stats
what % of BF does the kidney receive what % of plasma is filtered? what % of the BF to kidney goes to nephron, where does the remainder go? how much filtrate is made each day, what does this say about reabsorption |
25%
20% (GFR/RPF) 90%, rest to support the capsule and fatty tissue 180L, LOTS of reabs |
|
wht is the filtration fraction
|
FF= GFR/RPF
RPF = RBF x (1-HCT) **usually 20% of plasma is filtered |
|
if you know RBF how do you determine PBF, what can PBF tell us
|
RPF = RBF x (1-HCT)
FF= GFR/RPF **usually the filtration fraction os 20%, this ism 20% of our plasma is filtered |

1. SNS: D 2. NO: I 3. Glucocorticoids: I 4. ANG II: D 5. ANP: I 6. ADH: d 7. Endothelin: d 8. prostaglandins: i |
|
what is the afferent arteriole more sensitive to?
what is the effernt arteriole more sensitive to?> |
Afferent: a1 SNS constriction
Effernt: ANG II **both decrease GFR and RBF |
|
what responds to ANG II
|
effernt arteriole is more sensitive
**constrict and decrease GFR RBF |
|
at arterial pressures of what is there constant BF nad GFR, what mech allows this
|
80-180
**autoregulation **wide range of pressure without an effect on GFR/RBF |
|
what can overide the autoreg that keeps GFR/RBF constant at arterial pressure of 80-180 (2)
|
1. SNS tone, **decrease GFR/RBF
2. severe blood loss, decrease RBF/GFR |
|
what happens to GFR/RBF with large hemmorage
|
decerase
|
|
autoregulation of the kidney refers to what? what are the mechanisms
|
constant BF when pressure is 80-180
1. myogenic: intrinsic property of VSM to contract in reponse to stretch 2. Tubuloglomerular feedback (flow dependent): increased GFR increases NaCl transport past the macula densa, MD responds by increasing afferent arteriole Pressure to decrease GFR |
|
the 2 mechanisms of autoregulation of GFR do what?
|
alter resistance of afferent arteriole
|
|
explain how the tubuloglomerular feedback works
|
increased GFR increases NaCl that passes the MD, MD senses this increase and respinds by constricting the afferent arteriole and increasing pressue so GFR decreases
|
|
what is the myogenic mechanism?
|
intrinsic property of VSM to contract in response to stretch,
one way kidneys autoregulate to have a constant GFR with pressures from 80-180 |
|
again, the 4 parts of renal function
|
1. Glomerular Filtration: protein free filtrate
2. Reabsorption: from tubule to blood 3. Secretion: from blood to lumen 4. Excretion: pee |
|
what is the conc of small molecules in the filtrate in comparison to plasma
|
isoosmotic
**the molecules that enter filtrate are isoosmotic to plasma initially |
|
the fluid in bowmans capsule can be referred to as what
|
protein free filtrate of blood plasma
|
|
what are the main barriers to filtration
|
BL: excludes negative things, lots of proteins in blood are negative
Filtration Slits: exclude big things (have diaphragms) **the fenestrae exclude RBC |
|
what structures easily pass into bowmans space base on size, wht doesnt
|
water
NaCl glucose inulin **proteins are excluded: albumin, hg **recall large things are excluded by filtration slits formed by pedicles of podocytes |
|
what is the eq for GFR
|
starling
GFR= K ((Pgc-Pbc) - (ngc-cbc)) **NFP= (Pgc-Pbc) - (ngc-gbc) **nbc is usually 0 bc no protein in bowmans capsule |
|
what part of the equation for GFR is usually zero
|
nbc
**No protein in capsule **oncotic pressure |
|
Kf is what
|
filtration coeffecient, the net filtration rate produced by each mmHg of NFP
**GFR= kf (Pgc-Pbc)- (ngc-nbc) |
|
how does the filtration coeffecient for the kidney capillaries differ from those of other organs
|
Kf is WAY higher for kidney, reflects the filter nature of kidney
|
|
how do mesangial cells affect Kf
|
they contract and decrease Kf to decrease GFR
**recall ANG II causes mesangial cells to contract |
|
what is the driving force for NFP (net filtration pressure)
|
pressure in glomerular capillary
Pgc |
|
what are these components that tend to drive GFR
1. Pgc 2. Pbc 3. ngc 4. nbc |
Pgc: pressure of capillary to force fluid into bowmans space, driving force for filtration
Pbc: small back force ngc: oncotic pressure of glomerular capillary, force drive fluid into the capillary to dilute the capillary proteins nbc: oncotic pressure in bowmans space, 0. no protein here |
|
what is the main part of NFP that decreases NFP
|
ncg
**the oncotic pressure of the capillary, lots of proteins in capillary that want to drive water into the capillary **opposed by the high hydrostatic pressure of the capillary that drived fluidOUT of capillary |
|
as plasma leaves capillary and enters bowmans space what happens to ngc
|
increases, proteins have concentrated as filtrate enters the bowmans capsule
|
|
because the glomerular capillary bed is made of 2 arterioles what pressure stays prtty constant
|
hydrostatic pressure of capillary
Pgc |
|
what is the ngc at afferent arteriole, what about at effernt
|
Afferent: low, oncotic pressure of glomerular capillary
Afferent: much higher, solute is lost and protens are super concentrated by the time we get to efferent arteriole, increased force to drive water into the capillary |
|
NFP is differnt at affernt and efferent end. why? how do they differ
|
afferent: 45, low oncotic pressure of capillary
efferent: 0, NO filtration, but not - so no reabs here. The proteins in blood are super concentrated and so there is a large force that wants to drive water into the capillary. capillary oncotic pressure |
|
what pressure is constant througout capillary system in glomerularus
|
hydrostatic pressure of glom capillary
**affernet/efferent arteriole, same pressure |
|
calc NFP
calc GFR Pgc= 45 Pbc= 10 ngc= 26 (nbc, not given. assume 0) Kf= 14 |
NFP= 45 - (10+26)
= 45 - 36 = 9 GFR= Kf + NFP = 14 x 9 |
|
what is the formula for NFP
|
driving force OUT - driving force IN
Pcg - (ngc+Pbc) |
|
we say that GFR = kf + NFP
how do we calc NFP |
(Pcg-Pbc) - (ngc-nbc)
Rearrange: driving force OUT - driving force IN Pcg - (Pbc+ncg) |
|
what does constriction to affernt art do to GFR
|
decrease RBF and GFR, due to decrease Pcg
**SNS stim to constrict afferent will decrease glom P |
|
what does constriction to effernt art do to GFR? what causes effernt constriction
|
decrease RBF, increase P in glom, increase filtration
*8at low/mod ANG II effernt constricts |
|
what if we constrict both afferent and efferent arterioles, what does GFR do RBF
|
constant!
DRASTIC decrease in RBF |
|
how can we decrease RBF and keep GFR constant
|
constrict both efferent and affernet art
|
|
when aff art constricts what happens to Pgc and RBF
what about effernet |
both decrease
RBF decrease, Pgc increase |
|
what would make kf increase, how does this afect GFR
|

increase GFR |
|
what wuld make Pgc increase, what does this do to GFR
|
1. increase Renal Art p
2.decrease aff art resistance, dilate afferent 3. efferent constriction increase GFR |
|

|
1. increased plasma oncotic rpessure
2. decreased renal plasma flow GFR decrease |
|

|
increae GFR
sure thing! |
