Restoring the function of a diseased kidney via its microvasculature.
BACKGROUND Based upon observations which indicate that chronic intrarenal hypoxia and microvascular obliteration play an important role in the pathogenesis of renal scarring and loss of function, the idea is presented that restoration of kidney structure and function by arresting microvascular drop-out and restoring the interstitial capillary network could be a feasible approach to regeneration...
متن کاملObservations on the Functional Homogeneity of the Nephron Population in the Chronically Diseased Kidney of the Dog.
Most forms of chronic renal disease result in extensive structural alterations of the renal parenchyma. Both glomeruli and tubules may exhibit a spectrum of anatomic abnormalities which give the constituent nephrons an appearance of extraordinary heterogenity. The degree to which these diversified structural changes alter the function of the surviving nephrons is of central importance to the cl...

متن کاملThe functional adaptation of the diseased kidney. 3. Ammonium excretion.
Ammonium excretion by the mammalian kidney is a rate-limited process that involves the de novo synthesis of NH8 by the renal tubular epithelial cells and the subsequent transfer of the ammonia from cell water to tubular fluid. Biologically, this process serves to increase markedly the capacity of the kidney to excrete hydrogen ions, for NH, is a strong base, and in an acidic urine virtually all...
