Renal pericytes: regulators of medullary blood flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Regulation of medullary blood flow (MBF) is essential in maintaining normal kidney function. Blood flow to the medulla is supplied by the descending vasa recta (DVR), which arise from the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary glomeruli.

Comparison of natural and artificial vasopressin deficiency: why the latter is lethal?

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2016
The transgenic mouse technology is widespread, however, untill now 22.0 % of tested null mutations was found to be lethal. The complete lack of vasopressin (AVP) resulted also in preweaning lethality.
