MTSA: Advanced Physiology: Renal Latest
Study Guide
functions of the kidney -
**
-excrete end products of metabolism
-regulate vascular, interstitial and intercellular osmolarity and volume (with ADH)
-regulate acid/base (with buffers and lungs)
-regulate electrolyte balance
-regulate BP
-regulate bone marrow production of RBCs
-synthesis of vitamin D to active form (1,25 DHCC)
-synthesis of hormones such as prostaglandins, endothelin, and NO
-gluconeogenesis
-excrete drugs and toxins
when regulating acid-base, the kidneys are -
**
the last to respond but the strongest response
gluconeogenesis is -
**
the formation of glucose from non-carb sources
the active form of vitamin D (1, 25 DHCC) helps regulate -
**
calcium and phosphate => bone formation
how do the kidneys promote RBC production? -
**
secretion of erythropoietin
