Reabsorption • Principles governing the tubular reabsorption of solutes and water Filtrate is similar tointerstitial fluid. 1 Na+ is reabsorbed by active transport. 1 Na+ 2 2 Anions Electrochemical gradient drives anionreabsorption. 3 Water moves by osmosis, followingsolute reabsorption. 3 H2O 4 4 Concentrations of other solutesincrease as fluid volume in lumendecreases. Permeable solutes arereabsorbed by diffusion. K+, Ca2+,urea Tubularepithelium Extracellular fluid Tubule lumen Figure 19-11
Reabsorption • Transepithelialtransport • Substances cross both apical (lumen side) and basolateral membrane • Paracellular pathway • Substances pass through the junction between two adjacent cells
Reabsorption • Sodium reabsorption in the proximal tubule Filtrate is similar tointerstitial fluid. 1 Na+ enters cell through membrane proteins,moving down its electrochemical gradient. Na+ reabsorbed 2 Na+ is pumped out the basolateral sideof cell by the Na+-K+-ATPase.

Reabsorption • Sodium-linked glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule Filtrate is similar tointerstitial fluid. 1 Na+ moving down its electrochemical gradientusing the SGLT protein pulls glucose into thecell against its concentration gradient. + Glucose and Na+reabsorbed [Na+] low[glu] high [Na+] high[glu] low 2 [glu] low 2 Glucose diffuses out the basolateral side ofthe cell using the GLUT protein. glu glu 1 Na+ Na+ 3 3 Na+ is pumped out by Na+-K+-ATPase.

Reabsorption • Urea • Passive reabsorption • Plasma proteins • Transcytosis
Reabsorption • Saturation of mediated transport Transport maximum (Tm) is transportrate at saturation. Saturation occurs. Transport rate of substrate (mg/min) Renal threshold isplasma concentrationat which saturationoccurs. Plasma [substrate] (mg/mL) Figure 19-14

Secretion • Transfer of molecules from extracellular fluid into lumen of the nephron • Active process • Important in homeostatic regulation • K+ and H+ • Increasing secretion enhances nephron excretion • A competitive process • Penicillin and probenecid
Excretion • Excretion = filtration – reabsorption + secretion • Clearance • Rate at which a solute disappears from the body by excretion or by metabolism • Non-invasive way to measure GFR • Inulin and creatinine used to measure GFR
Inulin Clearance • Inulin clearance is equal to GFR Efferentarteriole Filtration(100 mL/min) Peritubularcapillaries Glomerulus 2 Afferentarteriole 1 Nephron Inulinmolecules KEY = 100 mL ofplasma or filtrate 1 3 Inulin concentrationis 4/100 mL. 100 mL,0% inulinreabsorbed 2 GFR = 100 mL /min 3 100 mL plasma isreabsorbed. No inulinis reabsorbed. Inulin clearance = 100 mL/min 4 100% inulinexcreted 4 100% of inulin isexcreted so inulinclearance = 100 mL/min. Figure 19-16

GFR • Filtered load of X = [X]plasma GFR • Filtered load of inulin = excretion rate of inulin • GFR = excretion rate of inulin/[inulin]plasma = inulin clearance • GFR = inulin clearance

Gout • Limit animal protein. Avoid or severely limit high-purine foods, including organ meats, such as liver, and herring, anchovies and mackerel. Red meat (beef, pork and lamb), fatty fish and seafood (tuna, shrimp, lobster and scallops) are associated with increased risk of gout. Because all animal protein contains purines, limit your intake. • Eat more plant-based proteins. You can increase your protein by including more plant-based sources, such as beans and legumes. This switch will also help you cut down on saturated fats, which may indirectly contribute to obesity and gout. • Limit or avoid alcohol. Alcohol interferes with the elimination of uric acid from your body. Drinking beer, in particular, has been linked to gout attacks
