ions formation

are formed when electrolytes dissolve and dissociate




concentration is expressed in mEq/L


so if single ion (Na cl or K) =mmol/L=mEq/L


for two chargers (Ca2+ or Mg2+) =2xmmol/L=Meq/L

role of electrolytes

1. osmosis- movement of water between compartments is controlled by Ions (reabsorption of Na--> Cl follows--> the movment of Cl causes the water to follow




2. Acid -Base balance. They control the pH, act as buffers




3. Action potential and graded potentials




4. Cofactors- ATPase need Mg, Kinase- add phosphates group use ATP (must be bound to magnesium)

where is the fluid

2/3-intecellular


1/3- extracellular


with 80% of that being interstitila fluid


20% being blood plasma

where are the ions

outside Na Cl


inside K+ and Potassium ion




Na= very high in blood plasma and interstitial fluid (very low inside the cell- maintained by Na/K pump)


K= Opp of Na




Ca=Very low everwhere


Mg2+=high inside the cell


Cl-=similar to Na


HCO3-everywhere about equal


HPO42- = very high inside cell (phosophate ion)


Protein anions= blood plasma and lots in intracellular


So42-=small intracellular bits

Na+

136-149 meq/l in blood plasma and 50% of osmolarity of extracellular fluid, Aldosterone Na-Cl concentration, ADH (indirect) more water loss= increase concentration of Na




ANP= causes more Na-Cl and water to be lost

Cl-

9-105 meq/L




can move easily between compartments




Leaky channels for Cl as well as transporters and follows Na+ ions

cystic fibrosis

mutation in Cl channel and is inserted in membrane but cannot move Cl




Na moves but Cl cannot- alot of mucus forms because Cl cannot move

K+

140 meq/L (intracellular). Resting Membrane potential, re polarization, K CL causes super repolarization and kills ppl




exchanged with H+ to maintain pH of body fluids

Hco3-

very useful buffer


22-26 meq/L


Second most prevelent Extracellular fluid anion (Cl is 1)




Kidneys are main regulator of this ion




Intercalated cells and they mess with Bicarbs (in collection tube)

Ca2+

5 meqL Exracellular cation




98% is stored in skeleton and teeth




Parathyroid hormone (acts on DTC)




Important for blood clotting, NT release


Neurons and muscle tissue




excitability

Acid base balance ***

body likes a slightly alkaline pH of 7.35-7.45




the body needs to get rid of H+




1. BUFFER--> neutralize H+ ions but DO NOT get rid of them




2. Exhalation of C02 (breathing out H+ ions) because H+ + Hco3- --> H2CO3 (carbonic acid)--> (carbonic anhydrace=enzyme)--> h20 + C02




3. Kidney excretion of H+ ion- NON-Volatile ACIDS so you cannot breathe it out so you need the kidney to get rid of it

Buffer systems available- Protein

Protein buffer system- Albumin, and Hemoglobin (in blood)


NH2-->res--> COOH


NH2--> res--> COO- + H+


strong base OH- can come in and Neutralize the H+ or the NH2 can bind H+




NH3+-->res--> COOH




Hb-O2 + H+ ---> Hb-H + O2





Buffer systems - carbonic acid and bicarbinate system

HCO3- ionic concentration is significant in both extracellular and intracellular fluid




H+ + HCO3- --> H2CO3 --> H20 + CO2

Phosphate buffer

INTRACELLULAR buffer




OH- + H2PO4- weak base --> H2O + H2PO4 2- weak base




weak bases/acids do not disociate as easily- hold onto ions when the neutralize them

breathing phosphate buffer

IMPortant role in pH of body fuids.




high {CO2] --> H+ is high--> pH is low

kidney failure

cannot get rid of H+--> develope a bad perseistant cough

Kidney excretion of hydrogen ions

metabolic rxn produce lots of H+ --> and non-volatile acids (sulfuric, phosphoric, uric acid) ( 1 ,eq/H+ / Kg* 60Kg* 10^6 nmol/1meq )/12L


5*10^6 H+ nano moles H+/L




100,000 fold about 5pH


only way is via kidneys




PCT- secreation of H+/Na (antiporder)




Intercalated cells (distal bit of the DTC and collecting ducts) 30-40 % of the cells in these areas




`

acidosis and alkalosis

pH if below 7.35


depression of central nervious system because synaptic transmission goes down- heart failure--> peripheral vasodilation... IF below 7 the person goes into coma and may die




pH above 7.45


alkolosis--> overexcitability--> in both CNS and peripheral nerves-->rapid transmission of impulses w/o stimulation====> nerviousness muscle spasm and convulsions and death

compensation

a physiological response--> if the change in pH is due to metabolic causes then --> respiratory compensation (mins--> a few hours)




due to respiratory causes--> renal compensation (min--> days)

Respiratory Acid or alka detection

partial pressure of CO2- normally 35-45 mmHg



metabolic acid or alk detection

changes in HCO3- (bicarbanate concentration) normally 22-26 meq/L in systemic arterial blood.

respiratory acidosis

if partial pressure of CO2 is above 45 mmHg (acidosis) some issue in respratory system that does not get rid of CO2




anything that blocks CO2 movement from blood to aveoli of lungs- (cells make CO2 from ATP synth)




Emphysema-- brake down of elastic tissue in lungs and break down of aveoli walls so you cannot breath out




pulmonary edema- if left ventricles are not functioning properly the blood is not going from the lungs to the heart (the left aorta) and it is going to stay in the lungs and fill them with fluid




Injury to respiratory center (medulla)


Airway Obstruction


disorders of muscles involved in breathing




kidneys can compesate sometimes by secreting more H+ and reaabsorbing more HCO3-




INTERCALATED A CELLS IN DISTAL DTC AND Collection tubes

respiratory alkalosis

p CO2 falls below 35 mmHg (sestimic arterial blood) pH goes up




Oxygen deficiency (at higher altituted) pulmonary disease, stroke, or seveir anxiety - hyperventalation




use intercalated B cells by decreasing HCO3- and rabsorption of H+

metabolic acidosis

HCO3- is used to diagnosis this=== if this falls bellow 22 meq/L, lower pH




1. actual loss of HCO3- -> due to diarrhea or renal disfunction


2. kidneys failure to secrete H+ ions


3. accumulation of an acid other than carbonic acid (problem for low carb diets)




HYPER VENTILATE and get rid of CO2


compensation by respiratory system

Metabolic alkalosis

HCO3- is above 26 meq/L so pH has gone up




nonrespiratoyr loss of H+ or excessive intake of alkaline drugs or severe dehydration




HYPOVENTALATION-- brown bag treatment so you breath in a bag so you have lots of CO2 and this will shft the equation towards the HCO3- + H+
