The renal corpuscles, as well as the proximal and distal convoluted tubules are found here. It reaches into the inner renal tissue or medulla, splitting it into triangular parts called renal pyramids.
Vasopressin exerts its effects on salt transport in the distal convoluted tubule by up-regulating the apical thiazide-sensitive sodium–chloride cotransporter, in part through effects on protein ...
The third and final section is called the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and is also located in the renal cortex.
His team found that while AP-2β function in the kidney is required for survival by regulating the development and function of distal convoluted tubules, AP-2α is important for the proper ...
The distal convoluted tubule helps to control sodium and water levels, and the collecting duct has a role in acid/base balance as well as water reabsorption. At the very end of the collecting duct, ...
Grey’s Anatomy had some outrageous stories over the years. But Kevin McKidd, who plays Owen Hunt, would argue it hasn’t become convoluted and can keep going longer.
His team found that while AP-2β function in the kidney is required for survival by regulating the development and function of distal convoluted tubules, AP-2α is important for the proper ...
The deconvolved confocal image shows a parvalbumin-positive distal convoluted tubule (cyan), the mitochondrial outer membrane receptor Tom20 (red), and F-actin labeled with phalloidin (green).
