Physiology of Renal Sodium Transport
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2000A wealth of studies performed with a spectrum of methods spanning simple clearance studies to the molecular identification of ion transporters has increased our understanding of how approximately 1.7 kg of NaCl and 180 L of H2O are absorbed by renal tubules in man and how the urinary excretion is fine-tuned to meet homeostatic requirements.

Physiology of the renal medullary microcirculation
American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2003Perfusion of the renal medulla plays an important role in salt and water balance. Pericytes are smooth muscle-like cells that impart contractile function to descending vasa recta (DVR), the arteriolar segments that supply the medulla with blood flow. DVR contraction by ANG II is mediated by depolarization resulting from an increase in plasma membrane ...

Comparative Renal Physiology [PDF]
, 1987 Comparative studies have played an important historical role in the development of the principles of renal physiology and play an even more important role today. At the same time, comparative studies in renal physiology have been among the most significant scientifically of all comparative work.

1. The kidney is divided into the cortex and medulla. The medullary areas are pyramidal, more centrally located, and separated by sections of cortex. These segments of cortex are called the columns of Bertin. 2. Gerota’s fascia can be considered as an anatomic barrier to the spread of malignancy and a means of containing perinephric ...

ABSTRACTRenal physiology is the study of all functions of the kidney. There is a mnemonic, A WET BED, that helps one remember kidney functions: A) maintenance of ACID-base balance; W) maintenance of WATER balance; E) balance of ELECTROLYTES; T) removal of TOXINS; B) control of BLOOD pressure; E) production of ERYTHROPOIETIN; and D) metabolism of ...

, 2015 The lungs take in air and let out air. The kidneys take in fluid and lets out fluid. The oxygenated blood from the lungs is circulated to the kidneys. The carbon dioxide in the arterial blood has a physio-logic role in modifying the renal tubular handling of bicarbonate and hydrogen ions.

Pregnancy produces changes in the circulatory, renal, and urinary collection systems which support the developing fetus. There is physiologic dilatation of the urinary collecting system. There is systemic vasodilation, leading to decreased systemic vascular resistance, increased cardiac output, activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system ...
