Architecture of the human renal inner medulla and functional implications.
The architecture of the inner stripe of the outer medulla of the human kidney has long been known to exhibit distinctive configurations; however, inner medullary architecture remains poorly defined. Using immunohistochemistry with segment-specific antibodies for membrane fluid and solute transporters and other proteins, we identified a number of distinctive functional features of human inner me...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولImmunomorphometric study of rat renal inner medulla.
We utilized immunofluorescent immunolabeling of renal tissue sections to identify and count tubules at specified depths of the rat renal inner medulla. We used primary antibodies to aquaporin-1 (AQP1; labeling thin descending limbs), aquaporin-2 (AQP2; labeling inner medullary collecting ducts), the rat kidney-specific chloride channel (ClC-K1; labeling thin ascending limbs), and von Willebrand...
متن کاملRole of three-dimensional architecture in the urine concentrating mechanism of the rat renal inner medulla.
Recent studies of three-dimensional architecture of rat renal inner medulla (IM) and expression of membrane proteins associated with fluid and solute transport in nephrons and vasculature have revealed structural and transport properties that likely impact the IM urine concentrating mechanism. These studies have shown that 1) IM descending thin limbs (DTLs) have at least two or three functional...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of functional reconstructions reveals lateral and axial zonation in the renal inner medulla.
Three-dimensional functional reconstructions of descending thin limbs (DTLs) and ascending thin limbs (ATLs) of loops of Henle, descending vasa recta (DVR), ascending vasa recta (AVR), and collecting ducts (CDs) permit quantitative definition of lateral and axial zones of probable functional significance in rat inner medulla (IM). CD clusters form the organizing motif for loops of Henle and vas...
