Renal blood flow and oxygenation. [PDF]
Pflugers Arch, 2022 Our kidneys receive about one-fifth of the cardiac output at rest and have a low oxygen extraction ratio, but may sustain, under some conditions, hypoxic injuries that might lead to chronic kidney disease.

Extracellular superoxide dismutase is necessary to maintain renal blood flow during sepsis development. [PDF]
Intensive Care Med Exp, 2017 Background: Extracellular superoxide dismutase (ECSOD) protects nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability by decreasing superoxide levels and preventing peroxynitrite generation, which is important in maintaining renal blood flow and in preventing acute kidney ...

The UW solution for canine kidney preservation: Its specific effect on renal hemodynamics and microvasculature [PDF]
, 1989 The preservation effects of UW solution on renal hemodynamics and microvascular systems were studied in canine kidney autografts. In 72-hr UW-preserved kidneys, the microvessels of both cortex and medulla were completely visualized with silicon rubber ...

Renal pericytes: regulators of medullary blood flow [PDF]
, 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.
