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+ |
