• Water is an important component of human body.
• Water and dissolved particles (solutes) in it form into body fluid.
• body fluid is the place in which the metabolism of our body is taken place
• Homeostasis of water and electrolyte in the body fluid is very important to normal cell function.

• Electrolyte-Compound that when dissolved in water or another solvent, forms or dissociates into ions (electrically charged particles)– Cations – positively charged
• Na+, K+ , Ca2+, H+
– Anions – negatively charged• Cl-, HCO3
- , PO43-
• Non-electrolytes - Uncharged • Proteins, urea, glucose, O2, CO2
Solutes – dissolved particles

Ⅰ. Body fluid and electrolyte balance
• Body fluids are composed of – Water– Dissolved particles
• Electrolyte• Non-electrolyte
• Its volume, distribution , composition and omsmolality is essential to normal cell metabolism and normal organ function.
![Page 7: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
1. Body fluid volume
• The total body fluid, or total body water, in a adult man averages approximately 60% of his body weight.– i.e. 60kg body weight
total body fluid is about 36 kg or 36 liter
• Total body fluid can vary with age and sex.

Why women have less water than men if they are the same weight?
The water content of adipose (fat) tissue is less than that of muscle, while women have more adipose tissue at the effect of feminine hormone.

•Fluid compartment are seperated by membranes that are freely permeable to water.•Movement of fluids due to hydrostatic pressure and osmotic pressure
2. Body fluid distribution• Body fluids are distributed in
two distinct area:– intracellular fluid (ICF)
40% body weight– Extracellular fluid (ECF)
20% body weight• Interstitial fluid -15% body weight• Plasma -5% body weight
![Page 11: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Transcellular fluid —is a small compartment that represents all those body
fluids which are formed by the secretion of epithelial cell. —is contained within epithelial lined spaces. —includes cerebrospinal, pleural, pericardial, peritoneal,
intraocular, synovial and gastrointestinal fluids.

• Answer to question 1– cell membrane is semipermeable, only water
and small, noncharged molecules can move freely between interstitial and intracellular compartment. Ion can not cross easily.
– All kinds of ionic pump or channel on cell membrane determine the uneven distribution.
• Answer to question 2– Blood capillary wall is permeable to most mole
cules, including water and electrolytes, except for macromolecule, i.e. protein.
![Page 19: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

4. Body fluid osmolality• Osmosis
– movement of water or solvent across a membrane from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution
• Osmotic pressue– Pull that draws solvent through the membrane to the mor
e concentrated side (or side with solute ). – Determined by the number of particles instead of the mas
s of the solute in the solution.– Can be divided in two types:
• Crystal osmotic pressure: formed by a lot of small molecular weight materials, such as electrolyte, Glucose, BUN and so on.
• Colloid osmotic pressure: formed by large molecular weight materials such as proteins
![Page 21: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Figure 7-2
OsmosisWhen a bottle bottomed with a semi-permeable membrane is filled with 3% salt solution and put into a glass of water, the water in the glass will move into the bottle, this phenomenon is call osmosis. Osmosis make the salt solution rising and solution stops rising when weight of column equals osmotic pressure.
![Page 22: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Osmole– Measure of solution’s ability to create osmotic pressur
e & thus affect movement of water– Proportional to the number of osmotic particles formed
in solution– 1 mole of nonionizable substance= 1 osmole.
• 1mole of glucose forms a 1 osmolar solution in 1L water• 1mole of NaCl forms a 2 osmolar solution in 1L water• 1mole of CaCl2 forms a 3 osmolar solution in 1L water
• Osmolality– When the concentration of a solution is expressed in o
smoles per kilogram of water, the osmolar concentration of a solution is referred to as its osmolality.
– 1 osmoles/kg H2O=1 osmoles/L = 1000 milliosmoles/L= 1000 mOSM =1000mmol/L
![Page 23: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• In normal condition, the osmolality of plasma = interstitial fluid = intracellular fluid = 280-310 mOsm/ kg or 280-310 mmol/L
• The osmolality is determined mainly by:– in ECF: Na+ and Cl- (80%)
• In clinical practice, serum osmolality can be estimated by doubling serum sodium
– in ICF: K+ (50%)
Because water can move freely through cell membrane and blood capillary wall,
so there is no osmotic disequilibrium among different fluid compartment
![Page 24: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

• The first water channel protein, CHIP28 ( later called aquporin-CHIP) was purified by Agre and his colleagues from human erythrocytes in the late 1980s and its cDNA sequence was reported in 1991.
• The Xenopus oocytes introduced with CHIP28 cDNA will swell rapidly and burst in five minutes in hypotonic solution. While the control Xenopus oocytes without aquaporin will be intact.

Aquaporins,AQPs
•Aquaporins are a family of small, hydrophobic proteins forming water selective channels.
•It located in the animal, plant and microorganism.
• Up to now, 11 mammalian AQPs (AQP0-AQP10) have been identified.

Ⅱ. Mechanism for regulating body fluid and electrolyte balance
1. The sensation of thirst
2. Antidiuretic hormone
3. Aldosterone
4. The natriuretic peptide family
5. The guanylin family
![Page 30: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Conscious desire for water• Major factor that determines fluid intake• Initiated by the osmoreceptors in hypothalam
us that are stimulated by increase in osmotic pressure of body fluids
• Also stimulated by a decrease in the blood pressue through the receptor of baroreceptor.
THIRST
1. The sensation of thirst
![Page 31: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The vascular organ of the lamina terminalis (OVLT) contains osmoreceptive neurons – also the subfornical organ (SFO) and the median preoptic n. (MnPO)
Osmoreceptors stimulate AVP secretion and thirst
These cells project to the paraventricular nuclei (PVN) and supraoptic nuclei (SON) to produce AVP secretion
![Page 32: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The regulation of thirsty reaction
The stimulus sensed by osmoreceptor:
•Not a change in the extracellular fluid osmolality per se
•But a change in osmoreceptor neuron size or in the some intracellular substance.
![Page 33: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Thirst is inhibited by decreased plasma osmolality (OVLT receptors) and by increased blood pressure (hypervolemia)
Thirst is triggered by increased plasma osmolality (OVLT receptors) , decreased plasma volume, and increased plasma Ang which is caused by decⅡreased plasam volume.(angiotensin II in SFO).
Thirst precisely regulate the volume and osmolality of ECF
![Page 34: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

2. Antidiuretic hormone(ADH)
• Also called arginine vasopressin (AVP).
• ADH is produced in neuron cell bodies in supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the Hypothalamus, and stored in posterior pituitary.
• Physiological function– Promote the reab
sorption of water in the collecting duct.
• Mechanism?

ADH feedback regulation mechanism
Stimulus for secretion of ADH:•An increase as small as 2% in osmolality of ECF •Decrease of arterial pressure•Decrease of blood volume•angiotenⅡ•Emotion stress and pain
![Page 39: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
ADH is more sensitive to the change of osmotic pressure. 1-2% change of osmotic pressure will change the production of ADH.
At first, when blood volume is not markedly decrease, ADH will not be increased.
When blood volume is decreased >10%, ADH will be increased At this time, the decrease of blood volume may be life-threatening.

4. The natriuretic peptide family• Four peptides of this family have been identified, including:
– Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)– Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)– C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP)– Urodilatin
• release• Function:
– Diuretic and natriuretic actions
• Mechanism of diuresis and natriuresis– Three natriuretic peptide receptors termed NPR1, NPR2, and NP
R3 (or NPR-A, NPR-B and NPR-C)– NPR-A/B are membrane-bound, guanylyl cyclase-coupled recepte
ors, and mediate ANP functional effects– NPR-C lacks guanylyl cyclase domain and acts to clear circulating
natriuretic peptide.

5. The guanylin family
• Types and distribution– Include guanylin, uroguanylin, lymphoguanylin and exogenous p
eptide toxin produced by enteric bacteria– Guanylin, uroguanylin - highly expressed in gastrointestinal tract– Lymphoguanylin – kidney, myocardium and lymphoid-immune sy
stem• Function
– In gastrointestinal tract, stimulate epithelial secretion of Cl- and HCO-, causing enhanced secretion of fluid and electrolyte into the intestinal lumen.
– in kidney, increase excretion of Na+, Cl-, K+ and water.• Mechanism of above functions
– These peptides bind to and activate cell-surface receptors that have intrinsic guanylate cyclase (GC) activity.
![Page 48: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Sodium is the primary cation in the extracellular fluid→ sodium content determine the osmolality in ECF → while osmolality gradient across cell membrane is the driving force of water movement → so disturbance of sodium is always accompanied with water disturbance.
![Page 53: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

• Sodium and water disturbances often occur at the same time and will be discussed to
gether in this chapter.

Diabetes Insipidus
Central diabetes insipidus is characterized by decreased secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) that results in polyuria and polydipsia by diminishing the patient's ability to concentrate urine.
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is characterized by a decrease in the ability to concentrate urine due to a resistance to ADH action in the kidney.

1. Loss of sodium via kidney
• inappropriate long-term use of diuretics
•Adrenocortical insufficiency
•Renal disease
•Renal tubular acidosis
2. Loss of sodium via extra-kidney
furosemide→inhibit Na+ reabsorption by Henle’s loop ascending branch
→ ↓ADS → ↓renal Na+ reabsorptionChronic interstitial nephritis → impairment of medullary interstitium and dysfunction of Henle’s loop →↑urinary Na+ excretion
A decrease in H+ excretion in the collecting duct causes the dysfunction of H+-Na+ exchange → ↑urinary sodium excretion
Vomitting, diarrhea
Serious perspiration, burn
peritonitis→ascites

4. Hypervolemic hyponatremia
Concept:
Characteristics:
—Serum Na+ < 130mmol/L—Plasma osmotic pressure < 280mmol/L
• A hyponatremia with increased extracellular fluid volume, always associated with increased total body sodium and total body water, but the increase of water is greater than that of sodium.
• When hypotonic ECF is excessively increased, this disorder is also termed water intoxication.
![Page 72: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Etiology and pathogenesis
(1). Excessive water intake
(2). Decreased Water loss
•Tap water enema
•Psychotic drinking
•Excessive intravenous infusion of hypotonic solution
•Acute renal failure
•Over secretion of ADH caused by phobia, pain, hemorrhage, shock and trauma
Over retention of hypotonic fluid in the body
which exceed the ability of renal excretion of water
In general, water intoxication mostly occurred in patient with acute renal failure and infused inappropriately at the same time.

Application Problem 1
•Michael has recently started working outdoors in the hot weather to earn money for his tuition. After a few days he experienced headaches, low blood pressure and a rapid heart rate. His blood sodium was down to 125 meq/L. The normal is 144 meq/L. How do you explain this?
![Page 84: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Answer to Problem 1
• Michael lost sodium by perspiration. The low sodium in his blood allowed fluid to move into cells by osmosis. Lack of fluid lowered his blood pressure to give him a headache. The increased heart rate was his bodies way of trying to increase blood pressure.

MILLIEQUIVALENT (mEq)
• Unit of measure for an electrolyte
• Describes electrolyte’s ability to combine & form other compounds
• Equivalent weight is amount of one electrolyte that will react with a given amount of hydrogen
• 1 mEq of any cation will react with 1 mEq of an anion
![Page 86: Body Fluid And Electrolyte Balance](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052208/554b2a2db4c905a2058b4a4d/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Electrochemical Equivalence
• Equivalent (Eq/L) = moles x valence
• Monovalent Ions (Na+, K+, Cl-):– 1 milliequivalent (mEq/L) = 1 millimole
• Divalent Ions (Ca++, Mg++, and HPO42-)
– 1 milliequivalent = 0.5 millimole

Osmotic Concentration
• Proportional to the number of osmotic particles formed: Osm/L = moles x n (n, # of particles in solution)
• Assuming complete dissociation:– 1mole of NaCl forms a 2 osmolar solution in 1L– 1mole of CaCl2 forms a 3 osmolar solution in 1L
• Physiological concentrations:– milliOsmolar units most appropriate– 1 mOSM = 10-3 osmoles/L
e.g. 1 M NaCl = 2 M Glu in Osm/L
