No, creatinine is not actively reabsorbed by the proximal convoluted tubule. Instead, it is freely filtered at the glomerulus and excreted in the urine. The amount of creatinine excreted is used to estimate kidney function.
Nephron
Aldosterone acts on the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct in the kidney to increase sodium reabsorption and potassium secretion.
Renal cell carcinoma is a type of Cancer of the Kidney, originating from the lining of the proximal convoluted tubule. For more information see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_cell_carcinoma
The juxtaglomerular apparatus is located in the kidney, specifically at the point where the afferent arteriole and the distal convoluted tubule come into close contact in the nephron. It plays a key role in regulating blood pressure and kidney function.
The regulation of pH of the filtrate is what occurs in the proximal tubule. The regulation occurs by exchanging hydrogen ions for bicarbonate ions. The proximal tubule is part of the duct system of the kidney.
The tube after the Bowman's capsule in the kidney is the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). This tubule is responsible for reabsorbing water, electrolytes, and nutrients from the filtrate back into the bloodstream.
Yes, creatinine is freely filtered by the glomerulus and not reabsorbed by the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). It is mostly excreted in the urine and its levels can be used as a marker of kidney function.
Nephrons are the basic unit of the kidney that produce urine. Their processes involve filtration, reabsorption and secretion in different places. The main part of the nephron that is involved with secretion is the Distal Convoluted Tubule (DCT). There is very little secretion in the Proximal Convoluted Tubule (PCT). Usually when you refer to secretion in the nephron, it will be in the DCT.
Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephron It is composed of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. The renal corpuscle consists of a glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule. It is the nephron's initial filtering component. The components of the renal tubule are the proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle and the distal convoluted tubule.
The nephron is the functional unit of the kidney, responsible for the actual purification and filtration of the blood. About five thousand nephrons are in each kidney, and each one consists of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule which carry out the functions of the nephron. The renal tubule consists of the convoluted tubule and the loop of Heinle.
