Document Summary

Lecture 20: acid-base balance: acid-base regulation in the proximal tubule during acidosis, during acidosis, kidney will increase excretion of h+ and increase. Within proximal tubule filtered hco3 with secreted h+ to form h2o and co2 (catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase) (1) Co2 diffuses from the tubular fluid into the epithelial cells (2) where it is hydrated back into hco3- and h+ (via carbonic anhydrase). Is reabsorbed (in co-transport with na+ or in back into tubules (3) while hco3 exchange for a cl- ion) (4, 5). Thus, acidosis is countered by increased retention of hco3 event of an alkalosis, bicarbonate reabsorption and proton secretion would be reduced. Ions, while excess h+ is excreted in urine (as water). In the: acid-base regulation in the distal tubule during acidosis, process involves synthesis of bicarbonate. Hco3 tubule, there are 4 main exchange mechanisms for synthesis of hco3-: on apical membrane (inside tubule), there are h+ pumps and h+/k+ antiporters.
