Season 2
Introduction to Gastrointestinal Physiology
Season 1
The Hidden Mechanics of Renal Physiology (long version)
Acidification of urine (Acid-base balance) long version
In this first episode of our Gastrointestinal Physiology series, we explore the fundamental principles that make digestion possible. From the "inside is outside" concept and hunger regulation to the structure of the gut wall, the enteric nervous system, and gastrointestinal reflexes, this episode builds the foundation you'll need to understand the rest of GI physiology.
Renal physiology explained as a system of pumps, pipes, and pressure. This episode breaks down how the kidney regulates water, electrolytes, and blood pressure using surprisingly elegant biological engineering.
This episode explores the mechanisms of renal acid-base regulation and its clinical significance. We break down how the proximal tubule and distal intercalated cells manage hydrogen secretion, bicarbonate restoration, and acid elimination via phosphate and ammonia handling.
