Nephron blood flow
afferent arterioles, glomerulus, efferent arterioles, peritubular capillaries back to the veins
Filtration
glomerulus into the Bowman’s capsule
Reabsorption
lumen to peritubular capillaries (gets back to blood)
Secretion
peritubular capillaries to the lumen (ends up in the urine)
Potassium
does secretion
Freely filtered
substance in bowman's capsule has same concentration as in afferent arterioles. Proteins not filtered
Micturition
Contraction of bladder smooth muscle by parasympathetic 2. Relaxation of internal sphincter 3. Relaxation of external sphincter = voluntary
Micturition
bladder fills progressively until the stretch in its walls rises above a threshold level then a nervous reflex (micturition) reflex occurs that empties the bladder
Response to stretch BP
GFR is regulated by myogenic
BP is up
afferents contact
BP is down
afferents relax
Juxtaglomerular autoregulation
response to sodium flow past macula densa cells (if flow high to low send a paracrine signal to afferent to contract) (if signal is low signal to relax)
Loop of henle countercurrent multiplier
sets up the osmotic gradient in the medulla
Counter exchanger
vasa recta maintains the gradient
Descending loop only has water channels (no sodium channels)
why osmolarity increases down the descending loop
Ascending loop
Na pumped out at the
Descending loop
water moves osmotically
Descending loop
no sodium movement
Ascending loop
no water movement
Loop of henle does not work
ADH would not function and you would not get water reabsorption in the collecting duct
Proximal tubule
under normal conditions blood glucose under 180 is reabsorbed in the
180
reabsorption is linearly related to levels until
Blood levels exceed 180
glucose appears in the urine when
ADH accounts for
water reabsorption in the collecting duct
Increases in renin or osmolarity
ADH released in response to
Renin
response in low blood pressure/sodium flow
Decrease osmolarity
want to increase water to
What stimulates aldosterone release
increase in renin, increase in blood K (not dependent on renin, direct effect), decrease in BP (renin release)
Low BP
renin increases angiotensin I and angiotensin II directly
Liver
Angiotensin II is produced in
blood vessels stimulating vasocontraction
Angiotensin II acts directly on
Aldosterone causes
sodium reuptake in the cortex (increase in blood pressure)
Renin increases when
BP decreases, low blood volume, decrease in blood sodium low sodium past macula densa cells, sympathetics
What would happen with a decrease in blood volume
BP decrease would increase renin release and result in vasoconstriction of arterioles and decrease in GFR. also increase sympathetics which decrease GFR.
What happens when you increase ANP
decrease renin release, angiotensin II, aldosterone, ADH, inhibits Na and water reabsorption. Increased urine volume
Decrease 2. Decreased sympathetic activity = decreases vasoconstriction 3. Increases GFR
PTH
increases calcium reabsorption 1. Increases # of transporters on the apical membrane resulting in increase in transcellular transport 2. There is paracellular transport but is not increased
What does the kidney do if pH decreases
proximal tubules 1. Reabsorb bicarbonate that has been filtered 2. Make new bicarbonate (when you make new proximal tubules you also get NH3 and excrete it)
How does the kidney handle nonvolatile acids
takes CO2+ O2 and makes carbonic acid, comes out as H+ + bicarbonate excrete H+ and it absorbs bicarbonate
production of HCO3 in alpha intercalated cells and then absorbed
excrete H+
correct acid
Alpha intervalated
correct base
Beta intervalated
Excrete H+
production of HCO3 in alpha cells absorbed
Cephalic phase
just seeing, smelling, and tasting food
Migrating motor pattern
peristalsis sweeping between meals (fasting) sweeps undigested food through SI to LI
Pharyngeal phase
under autonomic control, SM (swallowing center of brain stem)
Mucosa layer
absorptive layer of GI, submycosal fibrous contains blood vessels and lymphatic vessels
Cephalic phase
vagus N (para) and hormones
Histamine
endocrine into blood, stimulation parietal cells to excrete HCL
Chief cells
pepsinogen (gastric lipase)
Vagus nerve
stimulate stomach motility
Gastric phase
food in stomach
Amino acid
use G cells to produce gastrin
Gastrin
released into the blood (hormone)
Gastrin stimulates
Histamine from ELC, 2. Pepsin from chief, 3. Increases motility of stomach, 4. pH 1 or below gastrin release inhibited, also direct effect of pH HCL release stopped
Intestinal phase
chyme reaches SI
Intestinal phase (when food enters SI)
CCK released 2. Secretin released 3. Moilitin released 4. Glucagon like peptide 1 released (bc increase glucose in diet)
Gastrin increases
SI and stomach motility
CCK stimulates
SI motility, slows gastric motility and secretions from pancreas and contraction of gallbladder
Pancreas
Secretin stimulates HCO3 from
HCO3 made in
mucous cells in stomach (low pH), brunner cells in SI, pancreas duct cells
Why HCO3 made
secrete mucous and HCO3 to protect epithelial cells and brunner/pancreas neutralize chyme that enters SI
Liver synthesizes
angiotensinogen synthesis, clotting factors/prothrombin/fibrinogen, converting bilirubin to urobilinogen in liver (occurs by bacteria in SI and LI)
Large intestine
absorbs water (less than SI)
Large intestine
no digestive functions, electrolytes (K, Na, Ca, Cl) vitamin B & K, aldosterone stimulates Na reabsorption (same mechanism as kidney)
Peristalsis
food moved by ____ in stomach
Segmentation
chyme sloshes between segments of SI that form when bands of circular muscles briefly contract
Stomach, SI
Peristalsis in the ____, segmentation in the ______
Parasympathetic nerves decrease
frequency and strength of contraction in SI (duodenum to ileum)
NO
causes relaxation of SM in SI
Carbs broken down
salivary amylase in mouth, pancreatic amylase in SI from asinar cells
Proteins broken down
stomach (pepsin acid), SI (many different enzymes)
Fats broken down
some in stomach (gastric lipase), mist in SI (pancreatic lipase)
Pancreatic lipase
bile made in liver and stored in gallbladder helps breakdown large lipid drops to small
Triglycerides (fats) broken into
monoglycerides/fatty acids by pancreatic lipase
Maltose/maltase
glucose/glucose
sucrose/sucrase
glucose/fructose
lactose/lactase
glucose/galactose
Zymogens
need to be processed (ex. Trypsinogen to trypsin)
Enterokinase
on epotheral cells, do not need to be converted (processed) from inactive to active
Fats
taken up by epithelial cells by passive diffusion 2. Remade into triglycerides and combined w/ protein to make chylomicrons 3. Chylomicrons taken up by lacteals of lymphatic system 4. Chylomicrons acted on by SKL M lipoprotein lipase to give fatty acids
Chylomicrons
too big for fenestrations , get back to blood
Skeletal muscles
use fatty acid as an energy source
Indefinite gonadas
begin with this, cannot tell gender
Testis Determining Factor (TDF) Y chromosome has SDY region that releases
TDF
causes testosterone
