Case-renal physiology and acid-base balance


Case:

Review the Case Study : Renal Physiology and Acid-Base Balance

Then, Response to the following questions:

1. What other substances must be transported from the tubular fluid into the PCT cell (across the apical or luminal membrane) or from the PCT cell into the interstitial fluid (across basolateral membrane) as part of the transport of the H+?

2. What would happen to the amount of H+ secreted into the renal tubule if the activity of the H+/ K+ ATPase were increased? Are there diseases or other conditions that might enhance the activity of this sodium H pump?
