4 Transport mechanisms Transcellular Passive or active transporters Uniporter, cotransporter/symporter, exhanger/antiporter Facilitated diffusion (passive) along electrochemical gradients ATPases active transporters Secondary active favorable (chemical or electrochemical) gradient of 1 solute drives another (against unfavorable)

5 Transport mechanisms Channels Ion selective or non-selective Regulated by number of functional channels, and whether open or closed When open can see high rate of ion passage Paracellular route (through tight junctions, with segment specific ion selectivity) Endocytic receptors Substrates (or substrates bound to carrier proteins) endocytosed

6 Review of normal processes Glomerular filtrate (in Bowman s capsule) undergoes extensive reabsorption and exchange before final urine 99% of volume reabsorbed >99% of Na and Cl 85-95% K 95% Ca, 97% Mg, 80-95% Pi Reabsorption largely driven by Na reabsorption

7 Percentage Na reabsorption 8% Site of thiazide action 65% 25% Site of frusemide action 1.5% 0.5% left

8 PCT

9 Proximal tubule Lion s share of reabsorption (60% of glomerular filtrate) Most reabsorption is coupled to Na reclamation (applies to many segments of nephron) (low intracellular Na maintained by basolateral NaKATPase and Na-HCO3- cotransporter) All major solutes reabsorbed to some degree in PCT

10

11 Fanconi syndrome Generalized PCT defect Key = glucosuria, aminoaciduria, tubular proteinuria, hypophosphatemia, prta Also can see Na and K losses Na losses = hyponatremia, hypotension, dehydration, and secondary hypokalemia (RAAS activation) FTT (hypok, acidosis, hypopi) Polyuria/polydipsia/dehydration Osmotic diuresis from urinary solute losses, CD concentrating defect 2 hypokalemia Treat = treat cause, replace what s being lost

12 Causes Fanconi syndrome Genetic Cystinosis, Lowe s, galactosemia, tyrosinemia, Wilson s, HFI Toxin heavy metals, aminoglycosides, ifosfamide, mercaptopurine, multiple myeloma

13 Dent s disease X-linked PT dysfunction with LWM proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis, progressive renal failure Concentrating defect (thus polyuria) Hematuria (likely from hypercalciuria/nc/stones) Can have broader PT dysfunction (renal fanconi) Aminoaciduria, phosphaturia (and rickets), glycosuria, uricosuria, kaliuresis, proximal RTA Orphanet Dx: LWMP, hypercalciuria, and at least one of NC, stones, hematuria, hypophosphatemia, progressive renal failure

14 Dent s: genetics 60% = Xp11.22 CLC-5 channel inactivation (voltage gated chloride channel) CLC-5 facilitates maximal acidification of endosomes 15% = OCRL1 gene also mutated in Lowe Syndrome (which includes cataracts, mental developmental delay, renal tubular acidosis)

15

16 Mechanism of abnormalities Proteinuria Proteins endocytosed in PCT Impaired endosomal acidification = impaired processing of proteins, and decreased recycling of endosomal membrane Hypercalciuria Related to hyperabsorption Ca at gut level Hyperphosphaturia / increased 1,25 D? Due to increased PTH at distal PCT (not endocytosed earlier)

17 Treatment DENT s For hypercalciuria Low NaCl diet Thiazides For bone disease Oral PO4 Vitamin D (watch U.Ca) Replacement of Na/K/H20 in more general PT dysfunction Progression to ESKD between 3 rd and 5 th decade in 30-80%

18 LOH

19 Loop of Henle Differential permeability to water, Na, Urea Generates hyperosmolar interstitium (and hypoosmolar filtrate) Ability of ascending limbs ability to reabsorb NaCl in excess of water (TAL selectively reabsorbs 25-35% of filtered NaCl without water)

20 Loop of Henle Countercurrent mechanism in LOH creates hypertonic medullary interstitium In TAL of LOH, NaCl driven into interstitium without H20 concentrated Allows for H20 reabsorption in collecting duct via aquaporin channels (into high concentration interstitium)

21 Salt-losing tubulopathies Frusemide = Bartter syndrome Thiazide = Gitelman syndrome Other diureticopathies Spironalactone = pseudohypoaldosteronis m 1 Amiloride Liddle

22 Bartter s 1:1,000,000 AR; four genetic variants Direct or indirect compromise of Na-K-2Cl co-transporter in TAL of LOH Defect of luminal NKCC2 Defect of luminal ROMK Defect of basolateral Cl channel ClC-ka or kb (or Barttin subunit)

23 Seyberth H et al, Bartter- and Gitelman-like syndromes: salt losing tubulopathies with loop or DCT defects, April 2011

24 Creates intracellular low Na, electronegative

25 Drives this Creates intracellular low Na, electronegative

26 K is recycled

27 Creates lumen positivity (K + Cl)

28 Creates lumen Positivity (K + Cl) Drives this Hence in some phenotypes also get Mg and Ca loss in urine hypomagnesemia, hypercalciuria + nephrocalcinosis

29 LOH Ca & Mg Ca and Mg transport = passive paracellular process driven by positive lumen potential Mediated by tight junctional permselectivity proteins claudin 16 (CLDN16) and claudin 19 (CLDN19) Also - basolateral CaSR activation of which inhibits Na transport (inhibits NKCC and ROMK) Thus decreased TTPG driving Ca and Mg reabsorption

30 Brenner: Brenner and Rector's The Kidney; 8th Edition

31 Bartter syndrome Defective NaCl uptake in LOH massive salt losses Wash out medullary concentration gradient Large increase in NaCl delivery to distal nephron (severe volume contraction if no compenstory mechanism seen in severe AN Bartter s) Compensation by RAAS activity Hyperplasia of JG apparatus and PG secretion Increased Na reabsorption in exchange for K/H-Cl excretion (hence hypokalemia) Ca/Mg losses (and nephrocalcinosis) in some phenotypes

32 Findings Hypokalemia, hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis Polyuria and isothenuria Hypercalciuria, hypomagnesemia (in some) High levels of some urinary prostaglandins (Hyper PG syndrome) High PRA and aldosterone

33 2 phenotypes Classic Bartter insidious onset early life FTT / longitudinal retardation Impaired ability to concentrate / dilute urine Polyuria, polydipsia, salt craving Prone to hypernatremic dehydration Constipation Severe antenatal / hyper PGE syndrome Severe AN salt wasting - polyhydramnios (with high chloride) +/- premature delivery Life threatening volume depletion (NaCl loss and polyuria) for a number of weeks (may not be hypokalemic initially - ROMK) After which classical Bartter constellation becomes evident

34 Calcium-sensing Receptor Mutation Potent gain of function CaSR mutation ( L125P) leading to autosomal dominant hypocalcaemia. Case described of this associated with Bartter-like syndrome (Vargas-Poussou et al, JASN 2002). Thakker 1999 NEJM p1177

35 DCT

36 Gitelman (DCT thiazide) DCT - minor capacity of salt reabsorption (8% cf 25%) Crucial role in fine-tuning of urinary calcium and magnesium excretion In Gitelman, more chronic solute imbalances similar to the effects of chronic treatment with thiazides. Increased apical Ca reabsorption and Mg loss (not well defined)

37 Percentage Na reabsorption 8% Site of thiazide action, Gitelman syndrome 65% 25% Site of frusemide action, Bartter syndrome 1.5% 0.5% left

38 Gitelman syndrome Present childhood or adolescence Less severe; usually N growth; salt craving, nocturia and paraesthesia Muscle cramps and tetany common; dizziness, jt pains, nocturia Biochemical: Mild hypokalemia & alkalosis Low serum Mg, low urine Ca Elevated PRA, normal aldosterone

39 Gitelman cf Bartter Very low U Ca calcium (cf. often elevated in BS) S Mg low, U Mg elevated Renin and aldosterone usually normal

45 MANAGEMENT OF BARTTER SYNDROME NaCl, KCl, and water supplementation (titrated to response). NSAID (reduce hyperprostaglandin effeect) Indomethacin COX2 (eg celecoxib) Nutrition and fluids- Tube Care during illness/ surgery MANAGEMENT OF GITELMAN SYNDROME Normal diet. KCl supplementation +/- Mg as necessary. Rarely, Spironolactone.

60 Water reabsorption Principal cells of cortical and medullary collecting ducts, inner medullary collecting duct cells ADH(vasopressin)-dependant water permeability, activated by luminal insertion of AQP2 water channels (aquaporin 2) ADH binds to vasopressin receptor V2R increases camp fusion of subluminal AQP2-bearing vesicles with the luminal membrane Water is then reabsorbed into hyper-osmolar medullary interstitium (created by LOH)

76 Calcium homeostasis Renal tubular Ca reabsorption: PCT-65%, TALH-20%, DCT-10%, CD-1.5% Ca reciprocal relationship with: Phosphate ph Symptoms common with or Ca levels

77 MJA 2004 p354

78 Phosphate homeostasis Level decreases with age When PTH and PO4 intake normal in N kidney 85-90% filtered PO4 reabsorbed 10-15% fractional excretion PO4 Measure TRP, TmP/GFR Derangements rarely cause clinical symptoms Chronic hypophosphatemia rickets

79 Rickets Calcipenic or Phosphopenic Calcipenic Vit D or Ca deficiency including poor absorption (antacids, PHT/PB, CF, hepatic insuff) Defective 1a-hydroxylase activity (VDDR type 1, or pseudovitamin D deficiency; AR) Normal 25 D, low 1,25 D 1,25-OH2 Vit D resistance (receptor defect, VDDR type 2; AR) Normal 25 D, very high 1,25 D
