  1. The Kidney and Nephron Chapter 20

  2. Location

  3. Kidney Structure

  4. Kidney Function • Regulate volume, composition, and pH of body fluids • Remove metabolic wastes from blood and excrete (mainly N and S compounds from protein metabolism) • Control rate of rbc formation -erythropoietin • Regulate blood pressure - renin • Absorbs Ca2+ and activates vitamin D

  5. Dialysis Peritoneal Dialysis Hemodialysis

  6. Blood Supply

  7. Renal Artery & Vein = contain 15-30% of total cardiac output

  8. Nephron aka –Bowman’s Capsule aka -Loop of Henle

  9. Glomerulus

  10. Glomerulus

  11. Juxtaglomerular Apparatus Renin secretion – regulates [Na+ ] and therefore, blood volume

  12. Collecting Duct = simple cuboidal epithelium Tubules D=distal P=proximal

  13. Urine Formation 180 L of fluids are filtered every 24 hours!

  14. Urine Formation Overview Blood pressure causes filtration by size of molecule

  15. Blood Filtration • Water • Electrolytes • Glucose • Urea

  16. Urine Composition • Urea • By- product of aa catabolism • Reflects amt. of protein in diet • Contributes to water reabsorption • Uric Acid • By- product of nucleic acid catabolism (A & G) • Filtered out in glomerulus • Cause of Gout • 90% is Water • Volume varies with fluid intake and environment • Creatinine • Waste product of muscle action • Trace amounts of: • Amino acids, electrolyes, glucose

  17. Gout

  18. Gout

  19. Urinary Excretion in Nephron

  20. ADH – antidiuretic hormone Regulates water volume - Makes DCT permeable to water for reabsorption Secreted when dehydrated = more concentrated urine

  21. Alcohol Decreases ADH, which decreases water reabsorption Decreases Na+ absorption, which decreases amount of water you will hold. Caffeine

  22. Kidney Stones
