Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Osmoregulation and Osmotic Balance
Introduction to Osmoregulation
• Osmoregulation maintains the proper balance of electrolytes in the human body, despite external factors such as temperature, diet, and weather conditions.
• By diffusion of water or solutes, osmotic balance ensures that optimal concentrations of electrolytes and non-electrolytes are maintained in cells, body tissues, and in interstitial fluid.
• Solutes or water move across a semi-permeable membrane, causing solutions on either side of it to equalize in concentration.
• Cells in hypotonic solutions swell as water moves across the membrane into the cell, whereas cells in hypertonic solutions shrivel as water moves out of the cell.
• Water movement due to osmotic pressure across membranes may change the volume of the body's fluid compartments; therefore, it can directly influence medical indicators, such as blood pressure.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Osmoregulation and Osmotic Balance
Transport of Electrolytes across Cell Membranes
• Important ions cannot pass through membranes by passive diffusion; if they could, maintaining specific concentrations of ions would be impossible.
• Osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the number of solute atoms or molecules; ions exert more pressure per unit mass than do non-electrolytes.
• Electrolyte ions require facilitated diffusion and active transport to cross the semi permeable membranes.
• Facilitated diffusion occurs through protein-based channels, which allow passage of the solute along a concentration gradient.
• In active transport, energy from ATP changes the shape of membrane proteins that move ions against a concentration gradient.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Osmoregulation and Osmotic Balance
Concept of Osmolality and Milliequivalent
• Osmotic pressure is calculated from a solution's molarity and the charge on the ions.
• A solution's molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution, while a solution's molality is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
• Osmolarity is related to osmolality, but osmolality is unaffected by temperature and pressure.
• Electrolyte concentrations are usually expressed in terms of milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L), which is the ion concentration, in millimoles, multiplied by the number of electrical charges on the ion.

Osmoregulators and Osmoconformers
• Stenohaline organisms can tolerate only a relatively-narrow range of salinity.
• Euryhaline organisms are tolerant of a relatively-wide range of salinity.
• Osmoconformers are organisms that remain isotonic with seawater by conforming their body fluid concentrations to changes in seawater concentration.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > The Kidneys and Osmoregulatory Organs
The Kidney
• Kidneys regulate the osmotic pressure of a mammal's blood through extensive filtration and purification, in a process known as osmoregulation.
• Kidneys filter the blood; urine is the filtrate that eliminates waste from the body via the ureter into the bladder.
• The kidneys are surrounded by three layers: renal fascia, perirenal fat capsule, and the renal capsule.
• Internally, kidneys are mainly composed of over one million nephrons and an extensive network of blood vessels and capillaries.
• Kidneys contain two types of nephrons: cortical nephrons and juxtamedullary nephrons, which are located in different parts of the renal cortex.
• A nephron is composed of a renal corpuscle, a renal tubule, and the associated capillary network.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > The Kidneys and Osmoregulatory Organs
Kidney Function and Physiology
• Glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion are the three primary steps in which kidneys filter blood and maintain proper electrolyte balance.
• Glomerular filtration removes solutes from the blood; it is the first step of urine formation.
• In tubular reabsoption, the second step of urine formation, almost all nutrients are reabsorbed in the renal tubule by active or passive transport.
• Tubular secretion is the last step of urine formation, where solutes and waste are secreted into the collecting ducts, ultimately flowing to the bladder in the form of urine.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Excretion Systems
Contractile Vacuoles in Microorganisms
• Contractile vacuoles protect a cell from absorbing too much water and potentially exploding by excreting excess water.
• Wastes, such as ammonia, are soluble in water; they are excreted from the cell along with excess water by the contractile vacuoles.
• Contractile vacuoles function in a periodic cycle by expanding while collecting water and contracting to release the water.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Excretion Systems
Flame Cells of Planaria and Nephridia of Worms
• Nephridia are more evolved than flame cells because they can reabsorb useful metabolites before excretion of waste.
• Both nephridia and flame cells are ciliated tubules that filter fluids in the cell to remove waste.
• Flame cells are connected to a duct system of pores to expel wastes, while nephridia often are open to the exterior of the organism.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Excretion Systems
Malpighian Tubules of Insects
• Malpighian tubules are found in the posterior regions of insects, where they work with glands in the rectum to excrete waste and maintain osmotic balance.
• Ions are transported through active pumps found in the malpighian tubules; as the ions are secreted, water and waste are drawn to the tubules due to the change in osmotic pressure.
• Nitrogenous wastes, such as uric acid, are precipitated as thick pastes or powder to be excreted.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Nitrogenous Wastes
Nitrogenous Waste in Terrestrial Animals: The Urea Cycle
• Ureotelic animals, which includes mammals, produce urea as the main nitrogenous waste material.
• 2 NH 3 + CO 2 + 3 ATP + H 2 O → H 2 N-CO-NH 2 + 2 ADP + 4 Pi + AMP is the chemical reaction by which toxic ammonia is converted to urea.
• The urea cycle involves the multi-step conversion (carried out by five different enzymes) of the amino acid L-ornithine into different intermediates before being regenerated.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Nitrogenous Wastes
Nitrogenous Waste in Birds and Reptiles: Uric Acid
• Nitrogenous wastes in the body tend to form toxic ammonia, which must be excreted.
• Mammals such as humans excrete urea, while birds, reptiles, and some terrestrial invertebrates produce uric acid as waste.
• Uricothelic organisms tend to excrete uric acid waste in the form of a white paste or powder.
• Conversion of ammonia into uric acid is more energy intensive than the conversion of ammonia into urea.
• Producing uric acid instead of urea is advantageous because it is less toxic and reduces water loss and the subsequent need for water.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Hormonal Control of Osmoregulatory Functions
Epinephrine and Norepinephrine
• Epinephrine, produced by the adrenal medulla, causes either smooth muscle relaxation in the airways or contraction of the smooth muscle in arterioles, which results in blood vessel constriction in the kidneys, decreasing or inhibiting blood flow to the nephrons.
• Norepinephrine, produced by the adrenal medulla, is a stress hormone that increases blood pressure, heart rate, and glucose from energy stores; in the kidneys, it will cause constriction of the smooth muscles, resulting in decreased or inhibited flow to the nephrons.
• Together, epinephrine and norepinephrine cause constriction of the blood vessels associated with the kidneys to inhibit flow to the nephrons.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion > Hormonal Control of Osmoregulatory Functions
Other Hormonal Controls
• Renin, a hormone produced by the juxtaglomerular apparatus in the kidneys, converts angiotensinogen (which is made in the liver) to angiotensin I.
• Angiotensin I is then converted to angiotensin II by the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), increasing blood pressure by causing vasoconstriction of the blood vessels.
• Angiotensin II causes the release of aldosterone which is produced by the adrenal cortex; it functions to maintain both sodium and water levels (osmotic balance) in the blood.
• Angiotensin II also causes the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) which functions to conserve water in the body when volume is low; it does this by inserting aquaporins in the collecting duct of the nephron to promote water reabsorption.
• The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is another hormone that is produced to function as a vasodilator and lower blood pressure by preventing sodium reabsorption.

Osmotic Regulation and Excretion Loop of Henle The loop of Henle acts as a countercurrent multiplier that uses energy to create concentration gradients.The descending limb is water permeable.Water flows from the filtrate to the interstitial fluid, so osmolality inside the limb increases as it descends into the renal medulla.At the bottom, the osmolality is higher inside the loop than in the interstitial fluid.Thus, as filtrate enters the ascending limb, Na+ and Cl- ions exit through ion channels present in the cell membrane.Further up, Na+ is actively transported out of the filtrate and Cl- follows.Osmolarity is given in units of milliosmoles per liter (mOsm/L).
