Water, Electrolytes, and
Acid-Base Balance
27-3
Body Fluids
• Intracellular fluid compartment– All fluids inside cells of body– About 40% of total body weight
• Extracellular fluid compartment– All fluids outside cells– About 20% of total body weight– Subcompartments
• Interstitial fluid and plasma; lymph, CSF, synovial fluid• Primary intracellular ions, interstitial fluid ions, and plasma ions
– Intracellular cation = K+
– Interstitial fluid cation = Na+
– Plasma cation = Na+
– Intracellular anion = Phosphate– Interstitial fluid = Cl-
– Plasma anion = Cl-

Body Fluid Compartments

Regulation of Water Content
• Content regulated so total volume of water in body remains constant
• Kidneys are primary regulators of water excretion
• Regulation processes– Osmosis– Osmolality– Baroreceptors– Learned behavior
• Sources of water– Ingestion
– Cellular metabolism
• Routes of water loss– Urine
– Evaporation• Perspiration
• Respiratory passages
– Feces
27-6
Extracellular Fluid Osmolality• Osmolality
– Measure of water vs. solute concentration; the higher the solute concentration, the higher the osmolality
– Adding or removing water from a solution changes osmolality
• Increased osmolality: triggers thirst and ADH secretion
• Decreased osmolality: inhibits thirst and ADH secretion
27-7
Hormonal Regulation of Blood Osmolality
27-8
Regulation of ECF Volume• ECF can increase or decrease even if osmolality of
extracellular fluid is maintained• Carotid sinus and aortic arch baroreceptors monitor blood
pressure, juxtaglomerular apparatuses monitor pressure changes, receptors in walls of atria and large vessels respond to small changes in BP
• These receptors activate these mechanisms– Neural: increase in BP recognized by baroreceptors. Decreased
sympathetic stimulation of afferent arteriole leads to increased pressure in glomerulus leading to increased filtration and increased urine output.
– Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone– Atrial natriuretic hormone (ANH)– Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)

Regulation of ECF Volume
27-12
Regulation of Electrolytes in ECF• Electrolytes
– Molecules or ions with an electrical charge
• Ingestion adds electrolytes to body
• Kidneys, liver, skin, lungs remove from body
– Concentration changes only when growing, gaining or losing weight
• Na+ Ions– Dominant ECF cations– Responsible for 90-95% of
osmotic pressure
• Regulation of Na+ ions– Kidneys major route of
excretion– Small quantities lost in sweat
{sweat = (in decreasing amounts) water, Na+, urea, Cl-
K+, NH3}. Insensible perspiration is water evaporating from skin. Sensible perspiration is secreted by the sweat glands. Contains solutes
• Terms– Hypernatremia: elevated
plasma Na+ – Hyponatremia: decreased
Na+

27-17
Regulation of Chloride, Potassium, Magnesium Ions
• Chloride ions– Predominant anions in ECF
• Magnesium ions– Capacity of kidney to
reabsorb is limited
– Excess lost in urine
– Decreased extracellular magnesium results in greater degree of reabsorption
• Potassium ions– Maintained in narrow range
– Affect resting membrane potentials
– Aldosterone increases amount secreted
• Terms– Hyperkalemia: abnormally
high levels of potassium in extracellular fluid
– Hypokalemia: abnormally low levels of potassium in extracellular fluid.
27-18
Potassium Ion Regulation in ECF
27-19
27-20
Regulation of Calcium Ions
• Regulated within narrow range– Elevated extracellular
levels prevent membrane depolarization
– Decreased levels lead to spontaneous action potential generation
• Terms– Hypocalcemia– Hypercalcemia
• PTH increases Ca2+ extracellular levels and decreases extracellular phosphate levels
• Vitamin D stimulates Ca2+ uptake in intestines
• Calcitonin decreases extracellular Ca2+ levels
27-21
Regulation of Calcium Ions
27-22
27-23
Regulation of Blood Magnesium
27-24
27-25
Regulation of Phosphate Ions
• Under normal conditions, reabsorption of phosphate occurs at maximum rate in the nephron
• An increase in plasma phosphate increases amount of phosphate in nephron beyond that which can be reabsorbed; excess is lost in urine
– Hypophosphatemia: reduced absorption from intestine due to vitamin D deficiency or alcohol abuse.
– Hyperphosphatemia: renal failure, chemotherapy, hyperparathyroidism (secondary to elevated plasma calcium levels)
27-26
Regulation of Blood Phosphate
27-27
27-28
Acids and Basesand Buffers
• Acids– Release H+ into
solution
• Bases– Remove H+ from
solution
• Acids and bases– Grouped as strong or
weak
• Buffers: Resist changes in pH– When H+ added, buffer
removes it– When H+ removed, buffer
replaces it
• Types of buffer systems– Carbonic acid/bicarbonate– Protein– Phosphate
27-29
Comparison of Strong and Weak Acids
27-30
Regulation of Acid/Base Balance• Buffers: if pH rises, buffers bind H+; if pH falls,
buffers release H+
– Protein buffer: Intracellular and plasma proteins absorb H+. Provide ¾ of buffering in body. E.g., hemoglobin.
– Bicarbonate buffering system: Important in plasma– Phosphate buffer system: important as an intracellular
buffer• Respiratory center: if pH rises, respiratory rate
decreases; if pH falls, respiratory rate increases• Kidneys: if pH rises, distal tubule decreases H+
secretion into the urine and decreases HCO3-
absorption into the blood (more H2CO3 will dissociate into H+ and HCO3
-); if pH falls, distal tubule increases H+ secretion into the urine and increases HCO3
- absorption into the blood

Increase in Blood pH
27-33
Decrease in Blood pH
27-34
Respiratory Regulation ofAcid-Base Balance
• Achieved through carbonic acid/bicarbonate buffer system– As carbon dioxide levels increase, pH decreases
– As carbon dioxide levels decrease, pH increases
– Carbon dioxide levels and pH affect respiratory centers
• Hypoventilation increases blood carbon dioxide levels
• Hyperventilation decreases blood carbon dioxide levels
27-35
Respiratory Regulation ofAcid-Base Balance
27-36
Renal Regulation of Acid-Base Balance
• Secretion of H+ into filtrate and reabsorption of HCO3
- into ECF cause extracellular pH to increase
• HCO3- in filtrate reabsorbed
• Rate of H+ secretion increases as body fluid pH decreases or as aldosterone levels increase
• Secretion of H+ inhibited when urine pH falls below 4.5
27-37
Kidney Regulation of Acid-Base Balance
27-38
Hydrogen Ion Buffering
27-39
Acidosis and Alkalosis• Acidosis: pH body fluids below 7.35
– Respiratory: Caused by inadequate ventilation- reduced elimination of CO2, asthma, damage to respiratory center in brain, emphysema.
– Metabolic: Results from all conditions other than respiratory that decrease pH- diarrhea, vomiting, ingesting overdose of aspirin, untreated diabetes mellitus, anaerobic respiration
• Alkalosis: pH body fluids above 7.45– Respiratory: Caused by hyperventilation, high altitude (reduced
partial pressure of O2
– Metabolic: Results from all conditions other than respiratory that increase pH- severe vomiting, too much aldosterone, ingestion of substances like bicarbonate of soda.
• Compensatory mechanisms
