Question
Chapter 24.5, Problem 17WDYL
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The effect of damage to the filtration membrane on relative permeability of the membrane and on the substances that are filtered.
Concept introduction:
Filtration membrane allows movement of all plasma components through it but not filter blood cells, small protein molecules and it filters out large molecules of proteins, engulfs and degrades macromolecules which are caught in the membrane.

Students have asked these similar questions
Certain diseases, kidney trauma, heavy metals, and some bacterial toxins can damage the filtration membrane. What effect would this have on relative permeability of the membrane and the substances that are filtered?
Blood volume must be restored in a person who has lost large amounts of blood due to serious injury. This is often accomplished by infusing isotonic NaCl solution into the blood. Why is this more effective than infusing an isoosmotic solution of a penetrating solute, such as urea?
Discuss the causes of the increase in fluid level in "vessel A," which is isolated
from "vessel B" by a semi-permeable
barrier.

- The renal handling of a novel drug is being studied. When the drug is present in the blood, it is filtered into the Bowman’s capsule and secreted via transport proteins in the renal tubules, but it is NOT reabsorbed. The lines on the following graph represent filtration, secretion and excretion rates of this drug at various plasma concentrations. For the three lines shown (labeled A-C) identify which line represents filtration, which line represents secretion, and which line represents excretion Explain how you determined this.arrow_forwardExplain how a high concentration of sodium ions in theinterstitial fluid affects intracellular fluid levels.arrow_forwardExplain the effect of renin on filtration.arrow_forward

Assume that the pores have a length of 50 nm and a radius of 3.5 nm. The viscosity of plasma is 0.002 Pa s. The average hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus is 60 mm Hg, hydrostatic pressure in Bowman's space is 20 mm Hg and the average oncotic pressure of glomerular capillary blood is 28 mm Hg. A. Calculate the flow through a single pore assuming laminar flow (use the Poiseuille flow equation) B. How many pores would there have to be to produce a normal GFR? C.

There is a medical condition called Syndrome of Inappropriate Anti-Diuretic Hormone (SIADH) secretion, which can occur as a result of head trauma. Patients with this condition retain water and present with a volume imbalance. A) Name the type of volume imbalance and accompanying direction of changes in ICF and ECF volumes and osmolality. B) Calculate the changes in osmolality and volumes of extracellular and intracellular fluid compartments if 3 liters of water are retained by a patient with SIADH. You can assume that the patient’s initial volumes were ECF=14 L, ICF=28 L. And his initial body osmolality = 290 mOsM. Remember that the total solute in the ICF compartment is kept in place by the cell membrane barrier.arrow_forward
