Nephron Basic function is to clean or clear blood plasma of unnecessary substances ~ 1million nephrons in each kidney Contains: glomerulus, Bowman’s capsule, tubules ( proximal, convoluted, loop of Henle, distal convoluted) Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc.

Physiology of urine formation * Primary function of kidneys: filter blood, maintain body’s internal homeostasis. * Multistep process of: filtration, reabsorption, secretions, excretion of water, electrolytes and metabolic waste. * Urine formation begins at glomerulus (blood filtered) * Glomerular filtration rate (GFR)-amount of blood filtered by the glomeruli in a given time, normal is ~ 125ml/min. Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. The normal kidney can alter its excretion of salt to match loss with gain.

Regulation of water and ion balance (electrolyte and acid base balance) 2. Removal of metabolic waste products from the blood and excretion in urine 3. Removal of foreign chemicals from the blood and excretion in urine 4. Secretion of hormones: a. Erythropoietin, which controls erythrocyte production b. Renin, which controls formation of angiotensin and influences blood pressure and sodium balance c. 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, which influences calcium balance Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Renal processes for sodium and water Sodium and water freely filter form the glomerular capillaries into Bowman’s space and undergo reabsorption, Normally ~99% Most reabsorption (2/3) occurs in proximal tubule, water reabsorption is by diffusion and dependent upon sodium reabsorption. Major influence on the reabsorption of sodium and water in tubules is ADH ( increases reabsorption of sodium and water and therefore decreases urine output Sodium excreted=sodium filtered-sodium reabsorbed Serum sodium-135-146mEq/L Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Renal water regulation Major change caused by water loss or gain out of proportion to sodium loss or gain is a change in osmolarity of the body fluids. Change in osmolarity is responded to via osmoreceptors in hypothalamus, controlling ADH secretion. Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Thirst and salt appetite Must replace sodium and water losses by intake THIRST, drives ingestion of water, stimulated by low extracellular volume and high plasma osmolarity. Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Potassium regulation Most abundant intracellular ion. Only 2% of total body K is in extracellular fluid. K concentration in extracellular fluid is important for the function of excitable tissues (nerve and muscle). Any increase (or decrease) in extracellular K, changes resting membrane potential of cells (in heart can result in abnormalities of heart rhythm, or arrythmias or weakness). K in urine=amount ingested minus amount eliminated in feces and sweat. Deficit or excess controls aldosterone secretion, which determine excretion of K in urine.

All Rights Reserved. Water balance, acid-base balance Function of: 1. ADH 2. Aldosterone 3. HCO3 and H+ (acid/base balance) 4. ANP Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)-required for water reabsorption in the kidney , important in fluid balance. makes tubules and collecting ducts permeable to water, allowing water to be reabsorbed into the peritubular capillaries and returned to the circulation. Functions in concert with hypothalamus and neural input as loop mechanism decreases urine output Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. aldosterone Released from adrenal cortex, acts on distal tubule to cause reabsorption of Na+ and water. Influenced by blood concentrations of Na+ and K+ In exchange for Na+ reabsorption, potassium ions (K+) are excreted. Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Atrial Natriuretic peptide (ANP) Hormone secreted from cells in R atrium in response to atrial distention due to an increase in plasma volume. Acts on kidneys to increase Na+ excretion. Inhibits renin, ADH and action of angiotensinII on the adrenal glands, thus suppresses aldosterone secretion. ANP causes relaxation of afferent arteriole, thus increasing the GFR Combined effects of ANP=production of large volume of dilute urine Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc.

Other Kidney functions (continued) Erythropoietin-stimulates the production of red blood cells (RBCs) in bone marrow produced and released in response to hypoxia and decreased renal blood flow. In renal failure, a deficiency of erythropoietin occurs leading to anemia Vitamin D-hormone obtained in diet and sun. requires metabolism in liver and kidney to be “activated”, essential for absorption of Ca+ from GI tract. In renal failure manifestation of problems of altered Ca+ and PO2 balance. Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Other Kidney functions Calcium balance -parathyroid hormone (PTH) is released from parathyroid gland in response to low serum ca+ levels. PTH works by causing increased tubular reabsorption of CA2+ and decreased tubular reabsorption of phosphate ions (PO4 2-) In renal disease, the effects of PTH may have major effect on bone metabolism.

Other Kidney functions (continued) Renin-regulates BP, involved in splitting of angiotensin cascade (p. 1138). Angiotensin II stimulates release of aldosterone (causes Na+ and water retention leading to increased ECF volume) Also causes peripheral vasoconstriction. (both increase BP) Produced and secreted by cells in kidneys, released into blood in response to decreased; renal perfusion, arterial BP, ECF, Na+ Released into blood in response to increased urinary Na+ concentration Copyright © 2007, 2004, 2000, Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved. Other kidney functions (continued) Prostaglandins (PGs)- involved in the regulation of cell function and host defenses PG synthesis occurs in the medullla of the kidney. PGs increase renal blood flow and promote Na+ excretion. Counteract the vasoconstrictor effect of angiotensin and norepinephrine =decreased systemic vascular resistance= decreased BP.

Acid base regulation Reabsorbing and conserving bicarbonate (HCO3) and secreting Hydrogen (H+) in response ph of ECF Distal tubule functions to maintain the ph of ECF within range of 7.35-7.45.

Urinary Bladder Serves as reservoir for urine Bladder muscle-detrusor muscle Normal urine output, ~1500ml/day, varies with intake of food and water, diurnal pattern. ~250ml of urine in bladder cause moderate distention and urge to urinate.

Gerontologic Considerations Effects of Aging on the Urinary System 20-30% decrease in size with aging, by 70 yrs old, 30-50% of glomeruli have lost function. Decreased renal blood flow, decreased GFR, alterations in hormone levels (ADH, aldosterone, ANP=decreased urinary concentration, limitations in excretion of water, Na+, K+ and acid).
