The proximal tubule efficiently regulates the pH of the filtrate by exchanging hydrogen ions in the interstitium for bicarbonate ions in the filtrate; it is also responsible for secreting organic acids, such as creatinine and other bases, into the filtrate.
The proximal tubule is responsible for the reabsorption of ~ 60% of previously filtered potassium. Solvent drag and diffusion have been proposed as the major driving forces of this process, and K⁺ is reabsorbed largely via the paracellular pathway.
