HTHSCI 1CC6 Lecture Notes - Lecture 14: Proximal Tubule, Juxtaglomerular Cell, Active Transport
Document Summary
Loop of henle: countercurrent multiplier the descending loop of henle: Is permeable to water the ascending loop of henle: Is impermeable to water sodium reabsorption is almost always active and via the transcellular route * Reabsorption of na is primary active transport and needs atp na/k atpase pump** goes against a concentration gradient Pumps out sodium, pumps in potassium into the cell in exchange. Tubules iii: if you were a glucose molecule how would you be handled including transport maximum implications. Most of all glucose is absorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule ** and glucose is absorbed completely and should not be excreted in urine in normal physiology. Once in the tubule wall, glucose and amino acids are absorbed directly into the blood capillaries along a concentration gradient. Endocrine function of the kidneys the role of renin and aldosterone, how their release is regulated. Distributing prohibited | downloaded by arsen terzian (arsen98@gmail. com) lomoar cpsd|2151316.
