Formula= Cs= (Us xV) / (Ps)
Cs= Clearance of substance S
Us= Urine Conc. of Substance S
Ps= Plasma conc. of substance S
V= Urine Flow Rate
Assume: Whatever is missing from the plasma must be in the urine
When is Renal Clearance = to GFR?
When a substance is FREELY Filtered,but NOT REabsorbed or Secreted!
Ex- inulin
What do we use Clearance to estimate?? and what is the substance we need to do it?
Clearance to Estimate Renal Plasma Flow (RPF)
= Freely filtered and secreted by RENAL TUBULES must be COMPLTETELY REmoved from Plasma= we need PAH.
Total RPF=
PAH Clearance / PAH Extraction Ratio
We acutually use PAH Clearance to Estimate what? why?
Effective Renal plasma Flow (ERPF)
= Bc PAH is freelyfiltered and secreted and is ALMOST completely cleared from the RENAL Plasma.
ERPF= Clearance of PAH
ERPF=
ERPF= (Upah x V) / (Ppah (plasma concentration of PAH))
1.Amount enter kidney= RPF x Ppah
2. amount entered =~ Amount excreted
3. ERPF x Ppah = Upah x V (flow rate)

ERPF= (Upah x V) / (Ppah)
Clearance levels:
1. Lower than inulin or Fraction excretion (FE) < 1
or Cx< Cin indicates=
2.Higher than Inulin or FE > 1 OR Cx > Cin indicates=
1. Lower than inulin or Fraction excretion (FE) < 1 = REABSORPTION
or Cx< Cin indicates= Reabsorbtion of x
2.Higher than Inulin or FE > 1= SECRETION into tubules
OR Cx > Cin indicates= Secretion of x
what is :
-an end product of muscle metabolism
- Exported into blood contibuously by skeletal m.
-freely filtered & not reabsorbed, a small amount is secreted by proximal tubule (10%)
- Most common method for routine assessment of Pt GFR, and clearance overestimates GFR by 10%, but considered acceptible?
CREATINE
Small Changes in Pcr (plasma conc. of creatinine) indicated what in GFR?
BIGGEST CHANGES IN GFR... monitor a pt Pcr over time.
A rising plasma creatinine indicates what?
that there may be a renal problem.
- 62ml/min
( be careful to do this over time bc it will be diff for each person in considering their age, m mass and original creatine levels.
To avoid any problems with mis dx a renal problem/failure creatine clearance formual=
Creatinine clearnace=
[(140-age) x lean body weight kg] / (plasma creatine mg/dl x 72)
Tubular Reabsorption:
Transported across the tubular epithelial membranes intothe renal ISF & then through the Peritubular Cap Membrane back into the Blood is what kind of process and mech?
- Highly selective process
- Includes Passive & Active Mechanisms
Once this is reached for all nephrons, further increases in tubular load are not reabsorbed and are excreated. THIS IS A RATE.
e . glucose 375
TRANSPORT MAXIMUM
THis is the plasma concentration at which tranport max is exceeded in some nephrons. THis is determined by transport max of the whole kidney. This is CONCENTATION. Glucose apears in urine before all nephorns are thee = 200
THRESHOLD
The thing due to the fact that not all nephrons are identical and it is the curvature of a line bc some nephrons are saturated. Becasue the filtered load of glucose is normally reabsorbed, the kidney plays no role in regulating blood glucose levels
SPLAY!
If Water is reabsorbed to a greater extent than the solute, the solute will become???
MORE Concentrated in the Tubule ( ex creatine, inulin)

Secreation
IF the SOLUTe is reabsorbed to a greater exten than water, the solute will become
LESS Concentrated in the tubule ( ex glucose, aa)

REabsorbtion
Why does the Proximal Convulted Tubule (PCT) have a high capacity for reabsorption?
Bc has ciliated cells theree which enhance the overall surface area of the PCT and alllows more things to be absorbed. 65% of absorbtion occurss here.
What all is reabsorbed in the PCT?
-65% of the filtered Na, K, Cl, HCO3
-all the filtered glucose & AA ( via cotransport)
What all is secreted in the PCT?
->The metabolic waste products such as: H+ ions, Organic acids, and basesessuch as: bile salts, oxalate, urate & catecholamines
-> Harmful Drugs or Toxins
-> Para-aminohippuric acid (PAH)
What are the 3 functionally distinct segments of the loop of henle?
1. Descending Thin Segment= Thin epithelium, no brush border, few mito, low metabolic activity, very porous, Highly perm to H2O-1' H2O absorbed.- mod perm to solutes
2.Ascending Thing Segment= Ibid, almost imperable to H2O,-resorb very minor
3. Ascending Thick Segment= Thick epi cells w/high metabolic activity=>resprption of Na, Cl, K. (sm solutes)Important for concentrating & diluting urine
(Entire Ascending Limb= virtually impermable to H2O
HOw much of H2O is filtered by glom to be resorbed in LoH and where in it is most resorbed?

What % of filtered Na, Cl, K (bicarb, Ca & Mg) are filtered in & resorbed in LOH where is this mostly? and what kind of transport (co, counter, etc)?
25% in LoH, mostly in Thick Ascending Limb.
=>Na co-transport results in resorp of K & CL with Na
=> Na-H counter transport mech = allows H sec into lumen w/ na resorp
Which limb of LoH is highly permeable to Water, mod perm to most solutes and Simple diffusion of substances?
Thin Descending limb
Which limb of LoH has a much lower reabsorptive capacity than the the other ascending lim and does not reabsorb significant amounts of any solutes.
- it is virtually impermeable to H2O?
Thin Ascending limb
What is the target of Loop diruetics?
Na2Cl- transporter in the thick Ascending LoH
Loop Diruetics targe Na2Cl transporter in thick ascending limb of LoH, what do loop diruteics do and name some ex?
Loop Diruetics= powerful diruetics that block the Na2Cl transporter & cause loss of Na+, K+,& Cl- in our urine by blocking this transport. Water not reabsorbed so when all these solutes are reabsorbed this Increases the osmolarity of instium & becomes more hypertonic & water remains in lumen-> important in concentrating or diluting urine.
Ex: Furosemide
Ethacrynic acid
bumetanide

B. Virtually Impermeable to Water & Urea (DILUTING SEGMENT)
NaCl reabsorption in the Early Distal Tubule:
How much of filterd load of NaCl is reabsorbed here? by what transpot where?
=>~5% of filtered load of NaCl:
=>Na+_Cl- co-transporter moves NaCl from the Tubular Lumen.
=> Na_K_ATPase Pump transports Na out of the cell->interstium
=>Cl- diffuses into the intersitium through Cl- channels in basolateral membrane
What do Thiazide diuretics target? What do they do?
=>Thiazide diuretics target: Early Distal Tubules.
=>Thiazide diuretics- block/ inhibit the Na+_Cl- Co-Transporter; therefore thiazide diuretics cause the loss of Na & Cl in the urine. K+ is secreated out, so likely to have hypokalemia if on thiazide diuretics.
Both Loop diuretics & Thiazide diuretics promote ___Secretion => __________ which is
K+ Secrtion=> HYPOKALEMIA = loss of K+
In the Late Distal tubules & early Collecting ducts... What is H2O permeability dependent on? and is it permeable to urea here?
=> Permeability of H2O isdepends on ADH. (If it is available or not. If don't produce ADH, then not much H2O will be reabsorbed, but if produce a lot of ADH, then water will begin to be reabsorbed)
=> Not very permeable to Urea

1. Principle Cells
2. Intercalated Cells
Late D.T. & Early C.D. are composed of the following cells... what do they reabsorb/secreate?
1. Principal Cells-
2. Intercalated Cells-
1. Principal cells= Source of action of aldosterone which enchanches Na retention and promotes K secretion. ( - Princpial cells have receptors for aldoseterone and once activated reabsorb Na+, & Secrete K+)

2. Intercalated Cells= Reabsorb K+ & HCO3-, & Secrete H+ .... (also thought to be under aldosterone control)
Reabsorption of Water from the late distal tubules is controlled by?
Antidiuretic Hromone (ADH)
=> If ADH is present the water will be reabsorbed
What type of cells do Aldosterone Antagonists target? Why? examples of aldosterone antagonists?
=> Target Principal Cells bc Aldosterone antagonsist can act on IC receptors for Aldosterone in the Principal cells & block the action of Aldosterone; & therefore we do NOT have Increase Na+ Retention & Does NOT promote K+ Secretion === More Na+ in urine &Less K+ in Urine
=>Ex. of Aldosterone antagonists: Spironolactone & Eplerenone
What cells does Na+ channel blockers target and what do they do? Examples of Na channel blockers?
=> Block Na+ Channel w/in PRINCIPAL Cells & therefore lose more Na+ in the Urine
=> Ex of Na+ Channel Blockers: Amiloride & Triamterene
What acts in the Intercalated Cells of the Cortical Collecting Tubules and what does it do?
DOes K+ accumulated in the cell???
=> Aldosterone acts here to enhance H+ secretion & also have antiport= where H+ Ion is exchanged for K+ in cell.
=>K+ does NOT accumulate in the cell bc it can move into interstium by K+ channels of the basolateral secreations.
What des the NaK+ ATPase Pump in the basolateral area of tubular cells do for Na+ content in cell?
Keeps Na+ conten in cell LOW

Formation of Concentrated Urine:
Stragey:
1. Continue Electrolye reabsorption
2. Increase water reabsoprtion (through ADH)
What is the mechanism/ how do we contrate urine from electrolyte and water reabsorption?
1. Increased ADH release to Increase Water Permeability in Distal & Medullary Collecting Tubules.
2. High Osmolality of Renal Medullua (interstium required bc stimulates H2O reasorp bc h2o moves high to low & further contrates urine.
3. Countercurrent flow of Tubular Fluid ( one way then other way as flow tubules fluid concentration assumes concetration= osm as renal medullary interstitium becomes MOre & more concentrated as more fluid is moved through bc in thick asc limb have this nacl, k co trasnporter not absorb electroylytes but move to medullary area but not h2o.

3._INCREASES_ H2O Permeability & Reabsorption in Distal & Collecting Tubules
4. Allows differential control of: H20/WATERY URINE &SOLUTE EXCRETION
5. Important controller of: ECF OSMOLARITY
What is the mechanism of action for AVP/ADH?
ADH interatcts w/ its receptor(Vasopressin 2 receptor= V2 receptor) on the Medullary CT or Ditstal CT cells => stimulates cAMP & thereby Protein Kinase. Protein Kinase is responsible for synthesis of new Aquaporin 2 channels, they are inserted in the apical membrane of these cells. Once inserted these Aquaporin 2 channels can quickly absorb any H2O right into cell & then via Aquaporin 3 channels between the cells & H2O moves quickly into interstium. So we can quickly reabsorb H2O Via ADH/AVP.
Solute accumulation in the renal medulla by "COUNTERCURRENT MULTIPLICATION" due to 4 things: active transport and passive diffusion, and diffusion
1. Active transport of Na, K,Cl & other ions from Thick Asc LoH into Medullary Interstitium.
2. Active Transport of ions from Medullary CD into Interstitium (Hypertonicity of med.intersitium by electrolytes falls down into it)
3. Passive Diffusion of urea from Medullary CD into Interstitium.
4.Diffusion of only sm amts of H2O into Medullary Interstitium.
(movement of Urea= Increase Osm of medullary intersitum enahched medullary osmolarity of intersitium)
Loop Diuretics bloock cotransport in thick asc. LoH = Can't Concentrat urine bc Thick Asc LoH significantly contributes to the:
INCREASED Tonicity of Medullary Interstium
Ability to concentrate urine relies on:
Also, REnal Interstium remains hyperosmotic via this:
