Dr. Zahoor
![Page 2: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)

COUNTER CURRENT MECHANISM Kidney can excrete dilute or
concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration
Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity of 300 milliosmoles/liter (mOsm/l)
Depending on body state of hydration kidney can excrete urine having osmolarity from 100 – 1200 mOsm ( Normal urine Osmolarity is about 500 – 600 mOsm )
![Page 3: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

COUNTER CURRENT MECHANISM Concentration of urine is the function of
juxta -medullary nephron, which has long loop of Henle which goes down deep in the medulla
Also, the vasarecta (capillaries) of juxta medullary nephron follow the same deep loop of Henle
Flow in the both long LH and vasarecta is considered counter current because flow in two limbs of the loop move in the opposite direction

Juxta medullary and cortical nephron
![Page 5: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

COUNTER CURRENT MECHANISM Concentration of urine is due to 1. Juxta medullary nephron – long loop of Henle
establish (create) the vertical osmotic gradient 2. Vasarecta help to maintain (preserve) this
osmotic gradient 3. Collecting duct of all nephrons use the
gradient along with hormone vasopressin (ADH) to produce urine of varying concentration
4. Urea also help in urine concentration mechanism
This entire functional organization is known as medullary counter current system
![Page 6: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

COUNTER CURRENT MECHANISM We will discuss in detail each point 1- Medullary vertical osmotic
gradient - created by loop of Henle is called Counter current multiplier
- Long loop of Henle in juxta medullary nephron establishes the vertical osmotic gradient. How?
![Page 7: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

COUNTER CURRENT MECHANISM As filtrate is formed, it is isotonic in the
PCT, water is reabsorbed in PCT, secondary to Na+ active reabsorption
When isotonic fluid enters the loop of Henle changes occur in the descending and ascending limbs of long henles loop
![Page 8: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

PROPERTIES OF DESCENDING AND ASCENDING LIMBS OF LH Descending limb of long LH is highly
permeable to water due to AQP – 1 water channel which are always open
Descending limb is not permeable to Na+, therefore, Na+ remains in the descending limb of LH and its concentration (osmolarity) increases
Maximum osmolarity is at the tip of LH which is 1200 mOsm/l
![Page 9: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

PROPERTIES OF DESCENDING AND ASCENDING LIMBS OF LH Ascending limb of LH actively transports
NaCl out of tubular lumen into interstial fluid
Ascending limb is impermeable to H2O As NaCl leaves and H2O remains,
osmolarity decreases in the ascending limb of loop of Henle
Fluid entering the DCT has low osmolarity of 100 mOsm/l
![Page 10: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Osmolarity of
fluid in different segment
s of tubule
![Page 11: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
PROPERTIES OF DESCENDING AND ASCENDING LIMBS OF LHIMPORTANT As Na+ is actively transported out of
ascending limb of LH, concentration increases in the interstitial fluid surrounding the loop of Henle
This increased concentration in the interstitial fluid achieved by loop of Henle is known as Counter Current Multiplication
![Page 12: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

COUNTERCURRENT MULTIPLICATION
![Page 13: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

VERTICAL OSMOTIC GRADIENT IN THE RENAL MEDULLA
A large, vertical osmotic gradient is established in the interstitial fluid of the medulla
![Page 14: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
BENEFITS OF COUNTER CURRENT MULTIPLICATION What is the benefit of fluid getting
concentrated in the descending limb of LH and again diluted in the ascending limb of LH?
Benefits are - It establishes a vertical osmotic
gradient in the medullary interstial fluid - This gradient is used by collecting ducts
to concentrate the tubular fluid (urine)
![Page 15: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
BENEFITS OF COUNTER CURRENT MULTIPLICATION As fluid is hypotonic as it enters CT, the
kidney can excrete dilute urine or it can be concentrated in the CT. How ?
- ADH controls water reabsorption in DCT and CT. About 20% of H2O enters DCT and CT, and it is under control of ADH
NOTE - We know that in PCT 65% of water is reabsorbed and in LH 15% of water is reabsorbed
![Page 16: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
2. ROLE OF VASOPRESSIN (ADH) As fluid enters the CT, it is hypotonic. For water reabsorption to occur in CT,
Two criteria must be met: 1. Osmotic Gradient across the CT – it is
there as interstial fluid is concentrated by LH- counter current multiplication
2. Collecting tubule must be permeable to water, it is there due to presence of ADH (normally DCT and CT are impermeable to H2O)
![Page 17: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
ROLE OF VASOPRESSIN (ADH) How ADH increases the permeability of
DCT and CT? - ADH binds to V2 receptors, which are G-
protein receptors which activate cAMP, second messenger in DCT and CT
- It increases the permeability to water by insertion of Aquaporins (AQP-2 water channels in the luminal membrane)
![Page 18: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Mechanism of action of ADH
![Page 19: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

3. VASARECTA – COUNTER CURRENT EXCHANGER We will study vasarecta, which works as
counter current exchanger and preserves the medullary osmotic gradient, created by LH
Vasarecta are freely permeable to NaCl and H2O. As blood passes down the descending limb of vasarecta, it picks up salt and loses H2O, till it is hypertonic at the bottom(1200 mOsm ).
![Page 20: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
VASARECTA – COUNTER CURRENT EXCHANGER As blood flows up in the ascending limb
of vasarecta, salt moves into the interstium and water enters the vasarecta, therefore, concentration falls in the ascending limb of vasarecta ( 300-350 mOsm ).
This passive exchange of NaCl and H2O in the descending and ascending limbs of vasarecta and interstial fluid is known as counter current exchange
![Page 21: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

VASARECTA – COUNTER CURRENT EXCHANGE IN THE RENAL MEDULLA
![Page 22: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
• The vasa recta serve as countercurrent exchangers
THE VASARECTA PRESERVE HYPEROSMOLARITY OF RENAL MEDULLA
• Vasa recta blood flow is low (only 1-2 % of total renal blood flow)
![Page 23: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

IMPORTANT Loop of Henle – counter current
multiplier establishes the concentration gradient in the medullary interstitial fluid.
Vasarecta – counter current exchanger maintains the concentration gradient in the medullary interstitial fluid.
![Page 24: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

4. ROLE OF UREA IN CONCENTRATION OF URINE Urea contributes to hyper osmotic renal
medullary interstial fluid and to concentrated urine. How ?
- Urea is absorbed in PCT – 50% - 50% urea comes to DCT and CT, they
are not permeable to urea but collecting duct in the inner medulla is permeable
![Page 25: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
ROLE OF UREA IN CONCENTRATION OF URINE- UREA CYCLE
- When water is reabsorbed in DCT and CT under action of ADH, urea is more concentrated
- Urea diffuses from CT in the inner medullary region and contributes to the concentration of medullary interstial fluid
- Increased urea present in the interstial fluid diffuses into loop of Henle (descending and ascending limbs) and then to DCT and CT, therefore, recirculates many times before it is excreted – called Urea Cycle
![Page 26: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

MICTURITION REFLEX Micturition or Urination is the process by
which bladder is emptied, and is governed by two mechanism:
1. Micturition Reflex 2. Voluntary Control
![Page 30: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
MICTURITION REFLEX
1. Micturition Reflex It is initiated when stretch receptors in
the urinary bladder are stimulated Bladder can accommodate 250 –
400ml of urine Urine urge is felt when there is
150ml of urine in the bladder
![Page 31: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
There are 3 phases of vesicular pressure changes1. Initial 10 cm of H2O rise in
pressure for 10-50 ml of urine collection
2. Second phase last until the bladder volume is 400ml
3. Third phase shows the sharp rise in the intravesicle pressure
•Micturition contractions begin to appear at a urine volume about 150 ml.•Desire to void urine occurs when the bladder is full.
Normal Cystogram
![Page 32: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
MICTURITION REFLEX When amount of urine increases, there is
greater distension – afferent impulses from stretch receptors go to spinal cord via pelvic nerves.
Center in the spinal cord is S2,3,4
Efferent impulses pass via parasympathetic nerves to the bladder
Parasympathetic supply causes bladder smooth muscle to contract and urine is expelled through urethra by force of bladder smooth muscle contraction
IMPORTANT – Micturition reflex is spinal reflex
![Page 33: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

34
MICTURITION REFLEX
1. Voluntary Control of Micturition Micturition is spinal reflex , but facilitated and inhibited by higher Brain centers. - Voluntary Control is done by tightening
the external uretheral sphincter and pelvic diaphragm , through pudendal nerve by impulses coming from brain, pons and cerebral cortex to the spinal cord
![Page 35: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

36
APPLIEDUrinary Incontinence Urinary Incontinence is loss of voluntary
control over urination, therefore, inability to prevent discharge of urine
Cause – spinal cord injury to S2,3,4
![Page 37: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
RENAL FAILURE Renal Failure causes kidney functions to be
affected Causes of Renal Failure 1. Infections – urinary tract infection 2. Toxic agents e.g. lead, arsenic, pesticides 3. Drugs – aspirin 4. Immune response glomerulonephritis,
following post streptococcal throat infection 5. Kidney stone, tumor, enlarged prostate
gland
![Page 38: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
RENAL FAILURE Renal failure maybe - Acute Renal Failure - Chronic Renal Failure
1. Acute Renal Failure – sudden with decreased urinary output, less than 500ml per day
2. Chronic Renal Failure – slow progressive loss of renal function. It is not reversible
![Page 39: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
IMPORTANT Only 25% of kidney tissue is needed to
adequately maintain all the functions of kidney
When 75% of kidney tissue is destroyed then loss of kidney function is noticeable
End stage renal failure – when 90% of kidney function is lost
![Page 40: Lecture – 7 Dr. Zahoor 1. Kidney can excrete dilute or concentrated urine depending on body state of hydration Body fluids are isotonic having osmolarity.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d055503460f949d8a1d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE (CRF) Chronic renal failure can cause - Uremia (increased blood urea level) - Metabolic acidosis - Hyperkalemia - Na+ imbalance - Hypertension - Edema (loss of plasma protein) - Anemia (decreased erythropoietin)
Treatment for CRF - Dialysis - Kidney transplantation
