  1. Tubular Function

  2. Specific learning objectives What is tubular reabsorption? Types of transport Reabsorption of glucose Transport maximum Real splay Applied aspects

  3. Tubular Function • (Selective) Reabsorption(of essential Constituents) • (Selective) Secretion (of waste products)

  4. PROXIMAL CONVOLUTED TUBULE • GLUCOSE • Amino acids • Sodium • Potassium • Calcium • Bicarbonates • Chloride • Phosphate • Uric acid • Water

  5. LOOP OF HENLE • Sodium • Chloride DISTAL CONVOLUTED TUBULE • SODIUM • BICARBONATE • WATER

  6. Tubular Load • Tubular load ( filtered load ) of a substance is “the total amount of the substance that enter the tubule through glomerular filtrate" per unit time. Tubular load = GFR × Plasma con.of the substance = ml/min x mg/ml=mg/min

  7. Excretion rate • The amount of substance that appears in the urine per unit time Excretion rate= urine flow rate X con.of the substance in urine = ml/min x mg/ml=mg/min

  8. Renal TubularTransport maximum (Tm) • Tm is defined as “the maximum quantity of a substance that can be transportedby the renal tubule per minute”.

  9. Tubular maximum of substances Reabsorbed • Tm glucose = 375mg/min for male = 300mg/min for female • Tm Lactate = 75mg/min • Tm Amino acid = 1.5m.molar/min • Tm Phosphate = O.1m.molar/min

  10. Tubular Maximum-For reabsorption • If the tubular load is less than Tm; then the substance is completely reabsorbed • If the tubular load is more than Tm; then the entire excessis excreted

  11. The Renal threshold This is the concentration of the solute in the plasma at or above which the solute first appears in the urine. • Example : Renal threshold for glucose is 180mg% of venous plasma

  12. Overview of Renal Tubular transport mechanism Active Transport • Primary Active transport Na+-K+ Pump at the basolateral membrane • Secondary Active transport – Reabsorption of most substances, glucose, Amino acids

  13. Primary active transport

  14. Secondary active transport • “the transport of the substance does not require energy; but to create a favorable condition for the transportenergy is required”.

  15. Different types of Transporter • Different types of transport mechanisms based on properties of carrier proteins (Transporters) are -- • Uniport –Transport only one direction -transport of sodium • Symport (co-transport)—Transport more than one substance along with Na+ --PCT & Thick Ascending limb of LOH • Antiport (counter-transport) –Transport Na+ and other substance in opposite direction –PCT, DCT, Cortical CT

  16. Overview of Renal Tubular transport mechanism Diffusion/Passive Transport Simple diffusion Water, Urea, Facilitated diffusion Transport of glucose through GLUT-2

  17. Overview of Renal Tubular transport mechanism Transepithelial Transport Transcellular pathway- Paracellular pathway

  18. Glucose Reabsorption

  19. lumen

  20. Glucose reabsorption • Glucose is reabsorbed along with the Na+ in the proximal convoluted tubule. • Reabsorbed by secondary active transport.

  21. Na+/Glucose co-transport • Transporter protein at luminal side –SGLT2 (Sodium Glucose Transport-2)—Carry one Na+ ion & one glucose molecule • Transporter protein at basal membrane –GLUT-2 (Glucose Transporter-2) –only glucose

  22. Glucose reabsorption The Glucose reabsorption and excretion processes depend onplasma glucose consentration (PG) • Normal filtered load of glucose= 125x80/100=100 mg/min

  23. Glucose reabsorption • At low PG -complete glucose Reabsorption. • PG above 180-200mg/dl glucose reabsorption is not complete and glucose passes out in the urine- • Glycosuria • This plasma glucose level at which glucose first appears in urine is called as- Renal threshold for glucose

  24. Glucose reabsorption • Actual Renal threshold for Glucose –180mg/dl of venous blood; • Equivalent to 200mg/dl of arterial blood; • TmG for glucose – 375mg/min • Predicted renal threshold= 375×100/125=300mg/dl

  25. Glucose reabsorption

  26. Glucose reabsorption • Actual renal threshold is less than predicted renal threshold from TmG & Deviation is known as Splay • Reason for splay – • Variation in Tmg of the nephrons • Heterogeneity in the size, length of PCT and number of carrier molecules
