Introduction• Water critical to survival– 50-60% total body weight– 99% of extracellular fluid (ECF)– Essential component of cytosol (intracellular
fluid, ICF)• All cellular operations rely on water– Diffusion medium for gases, nutrients, waste
products

Body Fluid Compartments• Body must maintain normal volume and
composition of:– ICF– ECF = all other body fluids• Major - IF, plasma• Minor - lymph, CSF, serous and synovial fluids
• ICF > total body water than ECF– Acts as water reserve

Body Fluid Balance• Must maintain body fluid:– Volume (fluid balance)– Ionic concentration (electrolyte balance)– pH (acid-base balance)
• Gains (input) must equal loss (output)
• Balancing efforts involve/affect almost all body systems

![Page 7: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Fluid (Water) Balance• = amount of H20 gained each day equal to
amount of H2O lost• Regulates content and exchange of body
water between ECF and ICF• Gains– GI (from food, liquid)*– Catabolism
• Losses– Urine*– Evaporation (from skin, lungs)– Feces* Primary route

![Page 11: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Fluid Components• ECF components (plasma and IF) very similar• Major differences between ECF and ICF• ICF very different because of cell membrane– Selectively permeable– Specific channels for ions– Active transport into/out of cell
• Water exchange between ECF and ICF occurs across cell membranes by:– Diffusion– Osmosis– Carrier-mediated transport

Cations and Anions in Body Fluids
• In ECF– Na+ – Cl-
– HCO3-
• In ICF– K+ (98% of body content)– Mg2+
– HPO42-
– Negatively charge proteins

![Page 15: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Principles of Fluid and Electrolyte Regulation
• All homeostatic mechanisms that monitor and adjust body fluid composition respond to changes in ECF, not ICF– Because:• A change in ECF spreads throughout body and affects
many or all cells• A change in ICF in one cell does not affect distant cells
15
![Page 16: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Principles of Fluid and Electrolyte Regulation
• No receptors directly monitor fluid or electrolyte balance – Electrolyte balance = electrolytes gained equals
the electrolytes lost
• Monitor secondary indicators– Baroreceptors – for plasma volume/pressure– Osmoreceptors – for osmotic (solute)
concentration• Solutes = ions, nutrients, hormones, all other materials
dissolved in body fluids
16
![Page 17: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Principles of Fluid and Electrolyte Regulation
• Cells cannot move water by active transport– Passive in response to osmotic gradients
• Fluid balance and electrolyte balance are interrelated
• Body’s content of water and electrolytes:– Increases if gains exceed losses– Decreases if losses exceed gains
17
![Page 18: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Primary Hormones for Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
• ADH• Aldosterone• Natriuretic peptides (e.g., ANP)
18
![Page 19: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ADH• Produced by osmoreceptor neurons in
supraoptic nuclei in hypothalamus (and released by posterior pituitary)– Osmoreceptors monitor osmotic concentrations in
ECF– Osmotic concentration increases/decreases when:• Na+ increases/decreases or• H2O decreases/increases
• Increased osmotic concentration increased ADH
19
![Page 20: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ADH
• Water conservation– Increases water absorption decreased osmotic
concentration (by diluting Na+)– Stimulates thirst center in hypothalamus
increased fluid intake
20
![Page 21: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Aldosterone• Mineralocorticoid secreted by adrenal cortex• Produced in response to:– Decreased Na+ or increased K+
– In blood arriving at:• Adrenal cortex• Kidney (renin-angiotensin system
22
![Page 23: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Renin-Angiotensin System• Renin released in response to:– Decreased Na+ or increased K+ in renal circulation– Decreased plasma volume or BP at JGA– Decreased osmotic concentration at DCT
• Renin angiotensin II activation in lung capillaries
• Angiotensin II – Adrenal cortex increased aldosterone– Posterior pituitary ADH– Increased BP (hence it’s name)
23
![Page 24: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Aldosterone• In DCT and collecting system of kidneys – Increased Na+ absorption (and associated Cl- and
H2O absorption)
– Increased K+ loss
• Increased sensitivity of salt receptors on tongue crave salty foods
24
![Page 25: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Natriuretic Peptides• Released by cardiac muscle cells stretched by:– Increased BP or blood volume
• Oppose angiotensin II and cause diuresis– Decreased ADH increased H2O loss at kidneys
– Decreased aldosterone increased Na+ and H2O loss at kidneys
– Decreases thirst decreased H2O intake
• Net result = decreased stretching of cells

Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
• When body loses water:– Plasma volume decreases– Electrolyte concentrations increase
• When body loses electrolytes:– Electrolyte concentrations decrease– Water also lost

Disorders of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
• Dehydration = water depletion– Due to:• Inadequate water intake• Fluid loss, e.g., vomiting, diarrhea• Inadequate ADH (hypothalamic/pituitary malfunction)
– Leads to:• Too high Na+ = hypernatremia• Thirst, wrinkled skin• Decreased blood volume and BP• Fatal circulatory shock
28
![Page 29: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Disorders of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
• Overhydration = water excess– Due to:• Excess water intake (>6-8 L/24 hours)
– Seen in hazing rituals (water torture)– Marathon runners/paddlers– Ravers on ecstasy who overcompensate for thirst
• Chronic renal failure• Excess ADH
– Leads to• Too low Na+ = hyponatremia• Increased blood volume and BP• CNS symptoms (water intoxication); can proceed to
convulsions, coma, death29

Disorders of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
• Hypokalemia– Too low K+
– Caused by diuretics, diet, chronic alkalosis (plasma pH >7.45)
– Results in muscle weakness and paralysis• Hyperkalemia– Too high K+
– Caused by diuretics (that block Na+ reabsorption)– Renal failure, chronic acidosis (plasma pH<7.35)– Results in severe cardiac arrhythmias
30
![Page 31: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Summary: Disorders of Electrolyte Balance
• Most common problems with electrolyte balance– Caused by imbalance between gains/losses of Na+
• Uptake across digestive epithelium• Excretion in urine and perspiration
• Problems with potassium balance– Less common, but more dangerous
31
![Page 32: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• Today in class we will discuss:– Acid-base balance and
• Three major buffer systems that balance pH of ECF and ICF• Compensatory mechanisms involved in maintaining acid-
base balance– Respiratory compensation– Renal compensation
• Causes, effects, and the body’s response to acid-base disturbances that occur when pH varies– Respiratory acid-base disorders
» Respiratory acidosis» Respiratory alkalosis

![Page 33: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Acid-Base Balance
• Control of pH– Acid-base balance = = production of H+ is precisely
offset by H+ loss
• Body generates acids (H+) during metabolic processes– Decrease pH
• Normal pH of ECF = 7.35 – 7.45– <7.35 = acidosis (more common than alkalosis)– >7.45 = alkalosis
• <6.8 or >7.7 = lethal33
![Page 34: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Acid-Base Balance
• Deviations outside normal range extremely dangerous– Disrupt cell membranes– Alter protein structure (remember hemoglobin?)– Change activities of enzymes
• Affects all body systems– Especially CNS and CVS
34
![Page 35: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Acid-Base Balance
• CNS and CVS especially sensitive to pH fluctuations– Acidosis more lethal than alkalosis– CNS deteriorates coma death– Cardiac contractions grow weak and irregular
heart failure– Peripheral vasodilation decreased BP and
circulatory collapse
35
![Page 36: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Acid-Base Balance
• Carbonic acid (H2CO3)– Most important factor affecting pH of ECF
• CO2 + H2O H2CO3 H+ + HCO3-
36
![Page 37: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

![Page 38: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Acid-Base Balance
• H+
– Gained• At digestive tract• Through cellular metabolic activities
– Eliminated• At kidneys by secretion of H+ into urine• At lungs by forming H2O and CO2 from H+ and HCO3
-
– Sites of elimination far from sites of production– As H+ travels through body, must be neutralized to
avoid tissue damage– Accomplished through buffer systems
38
![Page 39: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Buffers
• Compounds dissolved in body fluids• Stabilize pH• Can provide or remove H+
39
![Page 40: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Buffer Systems in Body Fluids
• Phosphate buffer system (H2PO4-)
– In ICF and urine
• Protein buffer systems– In ICF and ECF– Includes:• Hb buffer system (RBCs only)• Amino acid buffers (in proteins)• Plasma protein buffers (albumins, globulins…)
• Carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system– Most important in ECF

Maintenance of Acid-Base Balance• For homeostasis to be preserved:– H+ gains and losses must be balanced
• Excess H+ must be:– Tied up by buffers• Temporary; H+ not eliminated, just not harmful
– Permanently tied up in H2O molecules• Associated with CO2 removal at lungs
– Removed from body fluids• Through secretion at kidneys
• Accomplished by:– Respiratory mechanisms– Renal mechanisms

Conditions Affecting Acid-Base Balance
• Disorders affecting buffers, respiratory or renal function– Emphysema, renal failure
• Cardiovascular conditions– Heart failure or hypotension– Can affect pH, change glomerular filtration rates,
respiratory efficiency• Conditions affecting CNS– Neural damage/disease that affects respiratory
and cardiovascular reflexes that regulate pH
44
![Page 45: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Disturbances of Acid-Base Balance• Serious abnormalities have an:– Acute (initial) phase• pH moves rapidly out of normal range
– Compensated phase• If condition persists• Physiological adjustments move pH back into normal
range• Cannot be completed unless underlying problem
corrected
• Types of compensation– Respiratory– Renal
45
![Page 46: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Respiratory Compensation
• Changes respiratory rate– Increasing/decreasing respiratory rate changes pH
by lowering/raising PCO2
– Helps stabilize pH of ECF
• Occurs whenever pH moves outside normal limits
• Has a direct effect on carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system
46
![Page 47: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Respiratory Compensation
• Increased PCO2 – Increased H2CO3 increased H+ decreased pH
(acidosis)– Increased respiratory rate more CO2 lost at lungs
CO2 decreases to normal levels
• Decreased PCO2 – Decreased H2CO3 decreased H+ increased pH
(alkalosis)– Decreased respiratory rate less CO2 lost at lungs
CO2 increases to normal levels 47

Renal Compensation
• Changes renal rates of H+ and HCO3-
– Secretion– Reabsorption
• In response to changes in plasma pH– Increased H+ or decreased HCO3
- • Decreased pH (acidosis) more H+ secreted and/or less

Disturbances of Acid-Base Balance• Conditions named for:– Uncompensated or • Compensated
– Primary source of problem • Respiratory or metabolic• Mixed (both)
– Primary effect• Acidosis or alkalosis
• e.g.,– Compensated or uncompensated• Respiratory acidosis or alkalosis• Metabolis acidosis or alkalosis

Respiratory Acid-Base Disorders
• Result from imbalance between:– CO2 generated in peripheral tissues (ECF)
– CO2 excreted at lungs
• Cause abnormal CO2 levels in ECF
• Respiratory– Acidosis– Alkalosis

Respiratory Acidosis• Most common challenge to acid-base equilibrium• Primary sign is hypercapnia (increased PCO2)• Develops when respiratory system cannot eliminate
all CO2 generated by peripheral tissues• Usual cause is hypoventilation• Acute situation may be immediate, life-threatening
condition– Requires bronchodilation or mechanical breathing
assistance (ventilator)• pH can get as low as 7.0

Respiratory Alkalosis
• Relatively uncommon• Primary sign is high pH• Develops when increased respiratory activity
(hyperventilation) lowers plasma PCO2 to below normal levels (hypocapnia)
• Seldom of clinical significance• pH can get as high as 7.8 – 8.0

Metabolic Acid-Base Disorders• Result from:– Production of acids during metabolic processes– Conditions that affect concentration of HCO3
- in ECF
• Metabolic– Acidosis– Alkalosis
58

Metabolic Acidosis• Results from:– Production of large numbers of acids• H+ overloads buffer systems
– Inability to excrete H+ at kidneys– Severe HCO3
- loss
59
![Page 60: Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-base Balance BIO 211 Lecture Instructor: Dr. Gollwitzer 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56649e165503460f94b0196e/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Metabolic Acidosis• Production of large number of acids– Lactic acidosis from anaerobic respiration• After strenuous exercise• From prolonged tissue hypoxia (O2 starvation)
– Ketoacidosis from generation of ketone bodies during metabolism• When peripheral tissues cannot obtain adequate
glucose from bloodstream and begin metabolizing lipids and ketone bodies), e.g.,– Starvation– Complication of poorly controlled diabetes mellitus

Metabolic Acidosis• Inability to excrete H+ at kidneys– With severe kidney damage (glomerulonephritis)– Caused by diuretics that interfere with H+
secretion into urine
• Severe HCO3- loss
– From chronic diarrhea– Loss interferes with buffer system ability to
remove H+

Metabolic Alkalosis• Relatively rare• Occurs after repeated vomiting– Stomach continues to generate HCl to replace lost
acids– Is associated with increased HCO3
- in ECF
– HC03- + H+ H2CO3
• Reduces H+ alkalosis
