both!
|

|
Na
|
|
what portion of the loop of henle is permeable to water
|
descending
|
|
what is the descending limb of henle impermeable to
|
na and cl
|
|
what is the ascending limb of the henle impermeable to
|
water
|
|
what occurs at the thick segment of the ascending loop of henle
|
active na, k, 2cl cotransport
|
|
what occurs at thin segment of the ascending loop of henle
|
passive nacl reabsorption
|
|
what is the site of physiological control of salt and water
|
collecting duct
|
|
what does aldosterone do in collecting duct
|
stimulates na reabsorption k secretion and h secretion
|
|
what does atrial naturiuretic peptide do in the collecting duct
|
inhibits na reabsorption
|
|
what does the antidiuretic hormone do in the collecting duct
|
stimulate water reabsorption
|
|
how does aldosterone increase the na reabsorption in the collecting duct
|
increases na channels in the luminal membrane and na k atpase in basolateral membrane
|
|
do you see effects of aldosterone immediately and why or why not
|
no, it is a steroid. it works via making the proteins needed for na channels
|
|
in dehydrated individuals what occurs at the collecting duct
|
it is highly water permeable and water is reabsorbed and low volume urine is excreted
|
|
how does ADH increase water permeability in the late distal tubule, collecting duct
|
via cAMP it increases the amounts of aquaporins on the luminal side
|
|
what portion of the kidney has a greater solute concentration
|
the inner medulla
|
|
what is the countercurrent multiplier mechanism
|
concentrates solute in the medullary interstitium; enables kidneys to conserve water during periods of dehydration
|
|
what are the 3 components of the countercurrent multiplier
|
vasa recta, loop of henle and collecting duct
|
|
what is action of the vasa recta in the countercurrent multiplier
|
exchanger
|
|
what is action of the loop of henle in the countercurrent multiplier
|
multiplier
|
|
what is action of the collecting duct in the countercurrent multiplier
|
osmotic equilibrator
|
|
where is urea concentrated in the nephron by 50%
|
pct
|
|
what promotes the urea absorption from the inner medullary collecting duct
|
adh
|
|
what makes the collects duct epithelium highly permeable to water
|
adh
|
|
where is the highest osmolarity of the blood?
|
vasa recta
|
|
what is the minimum urine excretion to eliminate wastes per day
|
500 mL
|
|
if urine osmolarity is less than plasma osmolarity then clearance of water is positive or negative
|
positive
|
|
when clearance of water is positive then water is retained or cleared
|
cleared
|
|
what was the clearance equation
|
u*v/p
|
|
what does the vasa recta maintain
|
the solute gradient
|
|
angiotensin 2 stimulates the efferent or afferent constriction
|
efferent
|
|
what happens to adh in response to a2
|
secretion from posterior pit
|
|
what happens to aldo in response to a2
|
secretion from adrenal cortex
|
|
where does a2 cause na reabsorption
|
proximal tubule
|
|
what is aldosterone's action in the collecting duct
|
sodium reabsorption
k secretion h secretion |
|
what 3 factors control aldo secretion
|
increased k conc
increased acth conc increased angiotensin II conc |
|
what does anp do to gfr
|
increase
|
|
how does anp act : afferent and efferent
|
dilates afferent
constricts efferent |
|
what does anp do to na
|
inhibits reabsorption
|
|
what does anp do to renin
|
suppresses it
|
|
what does anp do to aldo secretion
|
suppresses it
|
|
what does anp do systemically
|
vasodilate
|
|
what does anp do to adh secretion
|
suppress it
|
|
where does anp come from
|
cardiac atria
|
|
where is urodilatin secreted
|
in the dct and collecting duct
|
|
what does urodilatin do systemically
|
no effect
|
|
what does intrarenal prostaglandins do to na
|
they suppress reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of cortical collecting duct and therefore increase na excretion
|
|
what does intrarenal prostaglandins to gfr
|
dilate renal arterioles
increase gfr |
|
what controls the adh secretion
|
aortic baroreceptors -> supraoptic nucleus
hepatic osmoreceptors -> hypothalamic osmoreceptors |
|
what happens to adh in response to plasma osmolality
|
increases linear relationship
|
|
what happens to adh in response to blood volume depletion
|
small changes do not change adh but large changes in volume cause a dramatic adh
|
|
if a person has a 15% decrease in blood volume/pressure and has low plasma osmolality, what is the response of adh
|
it is steeper than normal it responds faster
|
|
if a person has a 15% increase in blood volume/pressure and has high plasma osmolality, what is the response of adh
|
there is a volume expansion, it responds much slower than normal
|
|
what is the renal response to increase nacl intake
|
decreased renin and therefore increased nacl excretion
|
|
hemorrhage leading to decreased arterial blood pressure, what is the renal response
|
decreased baroreceptor firing, and increased adh secretion, leading to h2o reabsorption from collecting duct and thus the maintenance of bp
