Collecting ductRenin angiotensin systemReninProrenin receptorBlood pressureHypertensionRecent evidence suggests that the renal tubular renin angiotensin system regulates urinary Na(+) and water excretion and blood pressure. Three key components of the tubular renin angiotensin system, namely renin, prorenin ...
Roos KP, Strait KA, Raphael KL, Blount MA, Kohan DE: Collecting duct-specific knockout of adenylyl cyclase type VI causes a urinary concentration defect in mice. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2012;302:F78-84.Roos, K. P., K. A. Strait, K. L. Raphael, M. A. Blount, and D. E. ...
Lithium causes hallmark AQP2 loss, induces proliferation, and upregulates inflammatory mediators, as seen in vivo. Lithium also suppresses electrolyte transport in multiple segments. In conclusion, this tubuloid model enables modeling of the human distal nephron and collecting duct in health and ...
The glomerular filtrate then passes along the renal tubule and is subject to the forces in the proximal convoluted tubule, the loop of Henle, the distal convoluted tubule and finally the collecting duct. The renal tubule functions either to secrete or reabsorb organic or inorganic compounds into ...
Current kidney organoids model development and diseases of the nephron but not the contiguous epithelial network of the kidney’s collecting duct (CD) system. Here, we report the generation of an expandable, 3D branching ureteric bud (UB) organoid cultur
e. collecting duct Kidneys: Kidneys are bean-shaped organs located on either side of the spine just below the ribs. These organs are an integral part of the urinary system which functions for the elimination of body waste, maintenance of flui...
Their activity is tightly regulated adapting to changes in systemic acid-base, fluid, or electrolyte status. The relative number of acid or bicarbonate secretory intercalated cells changes in response to acid or alkali loading. Several factors that may induce collecting duct plasticity in response to...
The cells of the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) are key elements of the nephron in the process of urinary concentration and dilution [1]. For these processes to be operative, interstitial hyperosmolarity/-tonicity needs to be established by accumulation of high interstitial levels of NaCl...
