Fluid and Electrolyte Homeostasis
Na+ and water: ECF volume and osmolarity K+: cardiac and muscle function Ca2+: exocytosis, muscle contractions, and other functions H+ and HCO3–: pH balance Body must maintain mass balance Excretion routes: kidney and lungs

Water Balance in the Body
1/2 of body weight is water. Majority is in cells (2/3) Water loss mostly thru kidney. Pathological water loss: Excessive sweating Diarrhea 2 problems: volume depletion lowers BP, if hypoosmotic loss (sweating) increase body osmolarity damaging cells Figure 20-2

Water Balance A model of the role of the kidneys in water balance
When body needs to eliminate excess water--diuresis Figure 20-3

Urine Concentration Osmolarity changes as filtrate flows through the nephron Water is reabsorbed by osmosis--need concentration gradient High osmotic gradient of interstitial fluid in medulla allows urine to be concentrated. Distal tubule and collecting ducts alter their permeability to water via addition or removal of water pores regulated by the posterior pituitary hormone vasopressin=ADH. Figure 20-4

Water Reabsorption Water movement in the collecting duct in the presence and absence of vasopressin Figure 20-5a

Factors Affecting Vasopressin Release
Main Trigger Figure 20-7
14
Water Balance The effect of plasma osmolarity on vasopressin secretion by the posterior pituitary Vasopressin is signal for water reabsorption, but high osmolarity of medullary interstital fluid is the key to forming concentrated urine. Figure 20-8

Countercurrent Heat Exchanger

Water Balance Countercurrent exchange in the medulla of the kidney
Countercurrent multiplier generates hyperosmotic interstitial fluid and hyperosmotic flitrate leaving loop Figure 20-10
17
Ion reabsorption Active reabsorption of ions in the thick ascending limb creates a dilute filtrate in the lumen “Loop Diuretics” furosemide (Lasix) x Figure 20-11

Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
Vasa recta removes water Close anatomical association of the loop of Henle and the vasa recta--“countercurrent exchange” Urea increases the osmolarity of the medullary interstitium--urea is 50% of solutes

Sodium Balance Homeostatic responses to salt ingestion Figure 20-12
Regulation of Na is due to steroid hormone aldosterone Figure 20-12

Sodium Balance Aldosterone action in principle cells Figure 20-13
Interstitial fluid Blood Aldosterone ATP receptor New channels P cell of distal nephron Translation and protein synthesis Proteins modulate existing channels and pumps. New pumps K+ Na+ secreted reabsorbed Lumen of distal tubule combines with a cytoplasmic receptor. Hormone-receptor complex initiates transcription in the nucleus. New protein and pumps are made. Aldosterone- induced proteins modify existing proteins. Result is increased Na+ reabsorption and K+ secretion. 1 2 3 4 5 Transcription mRNA Figure 20-13
21
Sodium Balance The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway Figure 20-14
Primary stimuli for aldosterone secretion is hyperkalemia (excess K acts on adrenal cortex cells) and decreased blood pressure Decreased blood pressure triggers a complex pathway using another hormone, angiotensin II--the usual signal controlling aldosterone release Granular cells in afferent arteriole juxtaglomerular apparatus stimulated when BP drops Ang II is very powerful hormone that has a strong vasoconstrictive action Major target for antihypertensive drugs--Captopril (ACE inhibitor) Figure 20-14

Sodium Balance Decreased blood pressure stimulates renin secretion

Sodium Balance Action of natriuretic peptides Figure 20-16
What about hormones that might cause LOSS of Na--natriuresis--and accompanying diuresis Could be useful therapeutic agents for lowering BP and blood volume Atrial Natriuretic peptide (ANP) found in atria Figure 20-16
24
Potassium Balance Regulatory mechanisms keep plasma potassium in narrow range Aldosterone plays a critical role (mentioned earlier) Hypokalemia Muscle weakness and failure of respiratory muscles and the heart Hyperkalemia Can lead to cardiac arrhythmias Causes include kidney disease, diarrhea, and diuretics
