Figure 24.15 Summary of tubular reabsorption and secretion. Cortex 65% of filtrate volume reabsorbed • H2O • Na+, HCO3−, and many other ions • Glucose, amino acids, and other nutrients Regulated reabsorption • Na+ (by aldosterone; Cl− follows) • Ca2+ (by parathyroid hormone) • H+ and NH4+ • Some drugs Regulated secretion • K+ (by aldosterone) Outer medulla Regulated reabsorption • H2O (by ADH) • Na+ (by aldosterone; Cl− follows) • Urea (increased by ADH) • Urea Regulated secretion • K+ (by aldosterone) Inner medulla • Reabsorption or secretion to maintain blood pH described in Chapter 26; involves H+, HCO3−, and NH4+ Reabsorption Secretion © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
