hyperventilation results in respiratory alkalosis? why? does this happen during excersise?

your body at a fixed metabolic point makes a fixed amount of CO2. if you breathe out too quickly, you lose too much CO2. This causes your blood to get alkaline (BASIC). Excersise is different, bc increase in respiration accompanies increase in metabolism and co2 produciton.

how do you increase your bicarb threshold? in other words, the kidneys will tolerate more than 24meq/l of serum bicarb?

ANS: by increasing H+ in the lumen of proximal tubule. 1) reduce effective vascular volume- This causes angiotens2 to make more Na+/H+ exchanges in proximal tubule in order to resorb more Na. Side effect of this is that there is also more H+ in lumen. This H+ combines with bicarb to CO2 which gets absorbed and reconverted (normal bicarb resorption pathway of proximal tubule) 2) K+ depletion Loss of K comes from cell (where most of K is). This leaves the cells feeling negative. H+ comes in to balance negative cells. causes drop in cell pH. In prox tubule cells, this extra H+ gets excreted by NA/H exchanger and H+ atpase. more H+ in lumen combines with bicarb, which gets resorbed as co2 .

Glutamate is the main way to store aminos. Glutamate Dehydrogenase takes the N off glutamate, creating FREE NH3 and also leaving a oxo-glutarate acid

where does free ammonia NH4+ for urea cycle come from?

Glutamine is made into Glutamate, releasing ammonia

Concentration of Urea in systemic blood is only 20micromolar. In portal circulation it is .3-1 mM headed to liver. The caromoyl phosphate synthetase in liver is an inefficient enzyme with a high kM, so it doesnt start to work well until about 1mM. This leaves some free ammonia escaping. how is it dealt with?

Glutamine sythetase picks it up and mixes it with glutamate to make glutamine. this is more efficient, with a lower kM

why is CETP deficiency a good thing?

If CETP cant transfer cholester-esters from HDL to apoB lipoproteins, then u get more, bigger HDL. and hdl is good cholesterol because it takes cholesterol out of circulation and returns it to liver

women cycle

If fertilization does not occur, there is no HCG to maintain the corpus luteum, and the corpus luteum will regress. When it regresses, the levels of estradiol and progesterone decrease. So stratum functionalis cannot be supported, the spiral arteries are constricted, get necrotic and cell death ensues. Entering into the menses, we start bleeding, losing stratum functionalis. As a result of the decrease in estradiol and progesterone, which normally surge as a result of FSH, we start to see a rise in the FSH level. With the rising FSH, follicular growth is stimulated. Follicles get bigger. We get secondary follicle, theca interna and theca externa. To produce estradiol, you need theca interna and granulosa cells. Androstenedione is produced, then converted to estradiol. With a dominant follicle, a lot of estradiol will be produced. It can act locally or go into the blood, to theca externa and to the rest of the body to feedback to stimulate the regrowth of the stratum functionalis. Rising estradiol also feeds back and contributes to LH surge. First it feeds back to the hypothalamus and causes surge in GnRH, which in turn stimulates LH and FSH release. This increase in LH and FSH leads to ovulation. The Graafian follicle turns into corpus luteum, which now in addition to estradiol is making a lot of progesterone. And they together feedback on the endometrium, and push it into secretory phase and make it ready for implantation. Fertilization doesn't occur, we don't make HCG, don't maintain corpus luteum, it dies, we lose the level of estradiol, and the cycle starts again.

if superior lobe is pneomia'd, lingula will be bright, but inferior lobe will not be, ull still be able to see border with left hemidiaphragm

Medial superior olive MSO has Coincidence detector neurons that only fire if they receive input at the same time. If a signal comes from the left, it will have a head start and travel far in the MSO before the same signal reaches the MSO from the Right. This will cause a neuron on the right side of the MSO to fire. When the L-R signals hit at the same time, the neuron fires to the inferior colliculus. This tells the inferior colliculus the sound is from the left.

logic behind CETP

The main reason for the transfer of cholesterol esters by CETP is so that you can transfer these to apo-B-containing lipoproteins and then cholesterol can be removed as part of the apo-B-containing lipoproteins involving LDL receptors, endocytic mechanisms that we've discussed previously. Again, the whole purpose of the HDL metabolism is to remove cholesterol from the body. It can pick up the free cholesterol, convert it to cholesterol esters and then give it off to apo-B-containing lipoproteins. CETP helps cholesterol get where its going

how does Cl transport from apical to basolateral surface?
