Removes protein debris from basement membrane Also contains reninKidney physiology - PCT Absorption H20 and Na = 66% Glucose and amino acids = 100% Potassium = 65% Urea = 50% Phosphate = 80% Citrate = 70-90%Kidney Physiology – PCT Sodium 3Na/2K ATPase channel on apical membrane drives absorption process Decreases sodium conc in endothelial cell Na/H antiporter moves sodium in Glucose SGLT – 2 transporter (symporter) Sodium dependant Simple diffusion across apical membrane Proteins (amino acids) Absorbed via symporter with sodium Symporter – Transport protein that moves 2 different on diagram)ral membrane (not seen molecules in the same direction Antiporter – Transport protein involved in secondary active transport that moves 2 different molecules in opposite directionsKidney Physiology – PCT Urea Paracellular fluid reabsorption causes reabsorption of urea via solvent drag Water Mostly moves via paracellular route via osmosis Can also move via transcellular routeKidney physiology – Loop of Henle Loop Rules Thick ascending limb is impermeable to water, but actively transports sodium, potassium and chloride Thick ascending limb provides the concentration gradient to promote water reabsorption from the thin DLH Thin descending limb is freely permeable to salt and water Vasa recta doesn’t wash away the gradient by using countercurrent exchangeKidney physiology – Loop of Henle Thick ascending limb Impermeable to water due to lack of aquaporins Na+/K+ ATPase channel drives reabsorption on basolateral membrane 3Na+ actively pumped out of tubule cell and 2K+ in This decreases sodium concentration and makes cell negatively charged creating electrochemical gradient Sodium then moves into cell from tubule through NKCC2 channel where a K+ ion and 2 x Cl- ions are absorbed Potassium ions are transported back into the tubule by renal outer medullary potassium (ROMK) channels on the apical membrane to prevent toxic build up within the cell Magnesium and calcium are absorbed paracellularlyKidney physiology – Loop of HenleKidney physiology – Loop of Henle Counter-Current multiplication Thick ascending limb is impermeable to water Interstitium has ↑osmolarity due to ↑ion concentration Water reabsorbed from descending limb into an area of high osmolarity (interstitium) This system is known as counter- the kidneys to reabsorb and it allows around 99% of filtered waterKidney physiology – Loop of Henle Thin descending limb Highly permeable to water Water travels via osmosis through aquaporins Small amounts of urea and sodium are absorpbed Vasa Recta • Carries away water and solutes • Helps maintain concentration gradient • Allows continuous reabsorption of fluids and electrolytesKidney physiology – DCT and collecting duct Early distal convulated tubule Impermeable to water Absorption of sodium, chloride and calcium Contains macula densa Na+/K+ ATPase drives reabsorption on basolateral membrane (Na in/K out) Sodium diffuses in via NCC (symporter) which also draws in Ca2+. (target site of thiazide diuretic Ca2+ leaves via NCX channel on basolateral membrane drawing more calcium in via uniporter in apical membraneKidney physiology – DCT Late distal convulated tubule and collecting duct Principle cells → H2O & Na+ reabsorption and secrete K+ Intercalated cells → Acid-base balance (H+ secretion, HCO3- synthesis) Principle cells Process driven by Na+/K+ ATPase channel Sodium diffuses into cell via ENaC (epithelial Na+ channel) Increase in cell electrical gradient and K+ concentration form Na+/K+ channel drives K+ diffusion out of apical membrane into the lumen, hence K+ secretionKidney physiology – DCT Intercalated cells – Type A Hydrogen-ATPase and H+/K+ ATPase secrete H+ into lumen HCO3- absorbed HCO3- also synthesised in cell by carbonic anhydrase from CO2 and H2O Secreted H+ can go on to react with NH3 or HPO4(2-) K+/Cl- symporter on basolateral membrane allows transport of ions into interstitium preventing toxic accumulation Intercalated cells – Type B The opposite is true, so transporters are on opposite sides of the cell Allows acid-base compensationKidney physiology – Collecting duct Main role is water reabsorption via anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) and aquaporins Anti-diuretic hormone Synthesised in hypothalamus and stored and secreted by posterior pituitary When secreted ADH binds to V2 receptors on the tubule cells Adenylyl cyclase activated which leads to an increase in cyclic AMP Vesicles containing aquaporin channels fuse to apical membrane thus inserting the water permeable channels allowing more water to be absorbed Urea is also absorbed in the collecting duct Histology!!!!!! – Bowman’s capsule AA/A = afferent arteriole MD = macule densa L = extraglomerular mesangial cells J = Juxtaglomerular cells GBM = Glomerular basement membrane C = capillaries M = mesangium (containing mesangial cell)s E = endothelial cells S = epithelium cellsHistology!!!!!! – PCT vs DCT PCT has abundant dark-pink cytoplasm (mitochondria) PCT has prominent brush border (increases surface area DCT has smaller cells with less cytoplasm which gives an impression of more nuclei in a cross sectionHistology!!!!!!

At normal physiological pH metabolic pathway precursors are ionised Phosphate Ammonium Carboxylic acid groups This traps them inside cells/organelles Deviation from normal pH (acidity) impairs tis process and therefore metabolic function Proteins (particular enzymes) tertiary (3D) structure can be influences by pH changes leading to denaturing due to disruption of hydrogen bonds, impairing their function.Balance, Buffering and Compensation Balancing – The concept of managing any additions or losses of acids and bases over time. Buffering – Manages instantaneous variations in pH (H+ concentration) and aims to limit its effect Compensation – The response from renal and respiratory systems to perturbation of H+Balance Manages threats to homeostasis: Generation of CO2 from aerobic respiration Metabolism of food generating acid or alkali Metabolism of amino acids can create and acid load (lysine, arginine, methionine) or alkali load (glutamate, aspartate) Protein rich “western diet” is an acid-load Anaerobic respiration Keto-acids, lactic acid Loss of alkali in still or loss of acid in vomitingAcid or Base Acid = proton (H+) donor Base = Proton (H+) receiver CO2 = ?

Sometimes there can be BOTH a metabolic and respiratory cause for a acid-base imbalance This seen with both CO2 and HCO3- being seen in amounts outside of their normal range Both of these changes will both being causing one of: acidosis or alkalosis Mixed acidosis = ↑ CO2and ↓HCO3- Mixed alkalosis = ↓ COand ↑HCO3-Interpreting ABGs Step 3 – Is there any compensation occuring? Have either CO2 or HCO3- changed to compensate for the original acid- base disruption? For example: If the CO2 has increased (causing acidosis) has the HCO3- increased, balancing out the acidosis with the presence of an alkali? If the HCO3- has increased (causing alkalosis) has the CO2 increased, balancing out the alkalosis with the presence of an acid? Is the pH back within normal range? If the pH is back within normal range then the acid-base disruption has been fully compensated If the pH is not back within normal ranges then the acid-base disruption has been partially compensatedInterpreting ABGs Step 3 – Is there any compensation occuring?

Respiratory acidosis with complete metabolic compensationCauses of acid-bace disturbances Anion Gap – Metabolic acidosis The anion gap is an artificial concept that may indicate the cause of a metabolic acidosis It represents the disparity between the major measured plasma cations (sodium) and the anions (chloride and bicarbonate) The anion gap represents the minor unmeasured anions such as organic acids (lactic acid, ketoacids, formic acid (from methanol)) (Na) – (Cl + HCO3) = anion gap Normal anion gap = 8 – 16 mmol/L - Must remain electroneutral – so if HCO ↓ a3 additional anion must be present – if this is Cl then anion gap unchanged; if this is not Cl then anion gap will riseCauses of acid-bace disturbances Anion Gap – Metabolic acidosis Metabolic acidosis can be classified into increased anion gap and normal anion gap. Essentially a high anion gap is due to the presence of an organic acid mainly lactate or ketones A normal anion gap means a loss of bicarbonates or their precursors or decreased renal acid excretion Raised anion gap – new acid added to the body M.U.D.P.I.L.E.S M = Methanol U = Uraemia D = DKA P = Paracetamol and propylene glycol I = Iron/isoniazid L = Lactate E = Ethylene Glycol S = SalicyclatesCauses of acid-bace disturbances Anion Gap – Metabolic acidosis Normal anion gap causes: - Loss of bicarbonate or bicarbonate precursors Diarrhoea or other intestinal losses Type 2 renal tubular acidosis Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors Causes of acid-base disruptions Acidosis Alkalosis Respiratory Hypoventilation in: Hyperventilation in: • Lung disease (COPD, severe asthma • Anxiety attack, pulmonary oedema • Hypoxia • CNS depression • Acute pulmonary insult (PE, • Mechanical lung dysfunction (obesity, pneumonia, asthma attack, Guillain barre, myasthenia gravis) pulmonary oedema Metabolic Increased anion gap Acid loss in: M.U.D.P.I.L.E.S • Chloride responsive: vomiting, diuretics, corticosteroids Normal anion gap • Chloride resistant: any Retaining H+ (RTA) or loosing HCO3- hyperaldosterone state (cushing’s (diarrhoea) hypokalaemia) MCQs!!!!!
