Overview of Glomerulus Filtration
The Proximal Tubule- Reabsorption and Secretion
What is the Function of the Loop of Henle?
The Loop of Henle- Descending Loop
Loop of Henle- Ascending Loop
What is Countercurrent Multiplication?
What Substance are Reabsorbed and Secreted in the Loop of Henle?
What is the Function of the Distal Tubule?
The Distal tubule performs further adjustment of urine
Active absorption and secretion of solutes takes place here
Sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-) ions are actively reabsorbed from the tubular fluid
Na+ is exchanged for potassium (K+) or hydrogen (H+) ions which are secreted from the blood into the tubular fluid
How Are Na+ and Cl- Exchanged for K+ Throughout the Distal Tubule?
The Distal Tubule- Principle Cells
RAAS in the Kidneys
What is the Clinical Relevance of Renal Actions of Aldosterone?
What are Intercalated Cells?
How do the Intercalated Cells Work?
What is the Function of ADH in the Collecting Duct?
Kidney Actions of Antidiuretic Hormone
Counter-current Multiplication- Contribution of Urea during Dehydration
Modification of Urine Volume by ADH- Maximal Circulating ADH
Modification of Urine Volume by ADH- No Circulating ADH
What are the Two Major Types of Diabetes Insipidus?
What is SIADH?
Other Substances which can Affect ADH
The Distal Tubule and Collecting Duct- Summary of Absorption and Secretion
What happens to All the Solutes and Water Reabsorbed from the Tubule?
It is all taken back into the peritubular capillaries and vasa recta surrounding the nephron
