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

2. NO
3. Glucocorticoids
4. ANG II
5. ANP

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 glom SA, relax mesangial cells (no ANG II)

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
what would make Pbc to increaes, what does this go to GFR
1. blockage of nephron (increase intratubular pressure)

decrease GFR
what would make oncotic pressure of capillary increase, what does this do to GFR
1. increased plasma oncotic rpessure
2. decreased renal plasma flow

GFR decrease
if we have icnreased RBF what happens to GFR? is there a chance we wont reach equilibrium
increae GFR

sure thing!
