Objective 2: List the four processes carried out by the nephron.
Objective 3: Name the part of the nephron responsible for each process.

Nephron is functional unit of kidney Blood enters nephron and is filtered through
Bowman’s capsule Fluid is called filtrate Water and small molecules pass into
proximal tubule
![Page 6: NURS 1950: Pharmacology 1. Renal Regulation: Obj 1 Kidneys regulate ◦ Fluid volume, electrolytes, acid-base balance Kidneys secrete ◦ Renin- for blood-pressure](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa3748/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Filtrate passes through loop of Henle, then distal tubule
Filtrate empties into collecting ducts and leaves nephron as urine
![Page 7: NURS 1950: Pharmacology 1. Renal Regulation: Obj 1 Kidneys regulate ◦ Fluid volume, electrolytes, acid-base balance Kidneys secrete ◦ Renin- for blood-pressure](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa3748/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Filtrate in Bowman’s capsule is same composition as plasma minus large proteins
Some substances in filtrate cross wall of nephron and reenter blood
Most of water in filtrate is reabsorbed Glucose, amino acids, sodium, chloride,
calcium, and bicarbonate are reabsorbed
![Page 8: NURS 1950: Pharmacology 1. Renal Regulation: Obj 1 Kidneys regulate ◦ Fluid volume, electrolytes, acid-base balance Kidneys secrete ◦ Renin- for blood-pressure](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa3748/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Some substances pass from blood through walls of nephron and become part of filtrate
Potassium, phosphate, hydrogen, ammonium ion, and some acid drugs are secreted into filtrate
Reabsorption and secretion are critical to pharmacokinetics of many drugs

![Page 26: NURS 1950: Pharmacology 1. Renal Regulation: Obj 1 Kidneys regulate ◦ Fluid volume, electrolytes, acid-base balance Kidneys secrete ◦ Renin- for blood-pressure](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa3748/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Mannitol is an osmotic diuretic (a sugar); ◦in the brain, its presence causes water to be drawn to it
Works the same way in the eye: ◦the excess intraocular fluid is drawn to the mannitol in the hyperosmotic plasma
