Transport Maximum (Tm)
• Most substances that are actively reabsorbed , there is a
limit to the rate of its solute can be transported. This is
called Tm.
System regulating
acid-base balance
1. H+ excretion.
2. Reabsorption of filtered HCO3- .
3. Production of new HCO3- to the plasma
Secretion of H+ and reabsorption of
HCO3-
• For each HCO3- reabsorbed, a H+ must be secreted.
• H+ secretion differ in different tubular segment.
Secretion of H+ in proximal tubule, thick segment
of asc loop of Henle and early distal tubule
• Secondary active
transport through
sodium-hydrogen
counter-transport.
• Na+-HCO3- co
transport.
Mechanism of H+ secretion at late distal
and collecting tubule
• Primary Type A intercalated cell
active H+ • H+ secreting
secretion • HCO3 - reabsorbing
• K+ reabsorbing
H+ potassium
ATPase • More active at
transporter normal condition
• Increases during
H+ acidosis
transporting
ATPase
Type B intercalated cell
Cl- - HCO3- • Opposite action of
exchange type A
transport • More active during
alkalosis
• Although only 5% but
important in forming
maximally acidic urine.
HCO3- and H+ in the tubules
• Normal condition tubular H+ secretion is 4400
mEq/day and rate of filtration of HCO3- is
4320mEq/day, there is excess H+ after all
HCO3- used.
• Excess of H+ (80mEq/day) excreted in urine in
combination of urinary buffer esp phosphate
and ammonia.
• Lower limit of urine PH is 4.5.
Phosphate and Ammonia buffer
system generate new HCO3-
