Regulation of Vitamin D Activity
• Kidney produces active form of vitamin D(1,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 )
• Vitamin D3 is important in calcium and phosphate metabolism

Regulation of Acid-Base Balance
• Excrete acids (kidneys are the only means of excreting non-volatile acids)
• Regulate body fluid buffers ( e.g. Bicarbonate)

Excretion = Filtration – Reabsorption + Secretion****AQUI GRUPO No. 3*****• Filtration: somewhat variable, not selective (except for proteins), averages 20% of renal plasma flow
• Reabsorption: highly variable and selective, most electrolytes (e.g. Na+, K+, Cl-) and nutritional substances (e.g. glucose) are almost completely reabsorbed; most waste products (e.g. urea) poorly reabsorbed
• Secretion: variable; important for rapidly excreting some waste products (e.g. H+), foreign substances (including drugs), and toxins

Glomerular Filtration
• GFR = 125 ml/min = 180 liters/day
• Plasma volume is filtered 60 times per day
• Glomerular filtrate composition is about the same as plasma, except for large proteins
• Filtration fraction (GFR/Renal Plasma Flow) = 0.2 (i.e., 20% of plasma is filtered)

Glomerular Capillary Membrane Filtration Barrier
• Endothelium (fenestrated, 160-180 A pores)
• Basement Membrane (70-80 A pores), negative charged proteoglycans, restriction site for proteins
• Epithelial Cells (podocytes, 80-80 A pores) restriction site for proteins

The Ability of a Solute to Penetrate the Glomerular Membrane Depends on:
• Molecular size ( small molecules > filterability)• Ionic charge (cations > filterability)

Clinical Significance of Proteinuria
• Early detection of renal disease in at-risk patients- hypertension: hypertensive renal disease- diabetes: diabetic nephropathy- pregnancy: gestational proteinuric hypertension (pre-eclampsia)- annual “check-up”: renal disease can be silent
• Assessment and monitoring of known renal disease
• “Is the dipstick OK?”: dipstick protein tests are not very sensitive and not accurate: “trace” results can be normal & positives must be confirmed by quantitative laboratory test.

Microalbuminuria
• Definition: urine excretion of > 25-30 but < 150mg albumin per day
• Causes: early diabetes, hypertension, glomerular hyperfiltration
• Prognostic Value: diabetic patients withmicroalbuminuria are 10-20 fold morelikely to develop persistent proteinuria

Determinants of GlomerularFiltration Rate
GFR = Filtration Coefficient x Net Filtration Pressure
GFR = Kf x NFP
Copyright © 2006 by Elsevier, Inc.
Figure 26-12;Guyton and Hall
Copyright © 2006 by Elsevier, Inc.
Determinants of Glomerular Filtration Rate
Normal Values:GFR = 125 ml/min
Net Filtration Pressure = 10 mmHg
Kf = 12.5 ml/min per mmHg, or4.2 ml/min per mmHg/ 100gm(400 x greater than intissues such a muscle)
Copyright © 2006 by Elsevier, Inc.
Glomerular Capillary Filtration Coefficient (Kf)
• Kf = hydraulic conductivity x surface area
• Disease that can reduce Kf and GFR- chronic hypertension- obesity / diabetes mellitus- glomerulonephritis
• Normally not highly variable

Bowman’s Capsule Hydrostatic Pressure (PB)
• Normally changes as a function of GFR, not a physiological regulator of GFR
• Tubular Obstruction- kidney stones- tubular necrosis
• Urinary tract obstruction- Prostate hypertrophy/cancer

Other Factors That Influence GFR
• Prostaglandins: increase GFR; non-steroidalanti-inflammatory agents can decrease GFR,especially in volume depleted states
• Fever, pyrogens: increase GFR• Glucorticoids: increase GFR• Aging: decreases GFR ~10%/decade after 40 yrs• Dietary protein: high protein increases GFR
low protein decreases GFR• Hyperglycemia: increases GFR (diabetes mellitus)

Determinants of Renal BloodFlow (RBF)
RBF = P / R
P = difference between renal artery pressure and renal vein pressure
R = total renal vascular resistance = Ra + Re + Rv = sum of all resistances in kidney vasculature
Copyright © 2006 by Elsevier, Inc.
Functions of Renal Blood Flow
• To deliver enough plasma to kidneys forglomerular filtration
• To deliver nutrients to kidney so that therenal cells can perform their functions (only about 20% of renal blood flow needed for this function)
