efferent arteriole

Efferent arterioles are spared from this effect by renin release.

The efferent arterioles of the juxtamedullary glomeruli are much different.

The efferent arterioles are blood vessels that are part of the urinary tract of organisms.

The efferent arterioles form from a convergence of the capillaries of the glomerulus.

The vascular pole is where the afferent and efferent arterioles communicate with the glomerulus.

At the vascular pole, the afferent arterioles and efferent arterioles enter the Bowman's capsule.

Further, constriction of the efferent arterioles of the kidney leads to increased perfusion pressure in the glomeruli.

Note 4: The efferent arterioles don't directly drain into the interlobular vein, but rather they go to the peritubular capillaries first.

In the kidneys, it constricts glomerular arterioles, having a greater effect on efferent arterioles than afferent.

Conveying away from a center, for example the efferent arterioles conveying blood away from the Bowman's capsule in the kidney.

The loop of Henle is supplied by blood in a series of straight capillaries descending from the cortical efferent arterioles.

To compensate, the efferent arterioles constrict to a greater degree than the other arteries, in response to increased levels of angiotensin II.

The efferent arterioles of the juxtamedullary nephron drain into the vasa recta.

Additionally, vasopressin selectively contracts efferent arterioles probably through the VR, but not the afferent arteriole.

To do this, angiotensin II constricts efferent arterioles, which forces blood to build up in the glomerulus, increasing glomerular pressure.

Central to the physiologic maintenance of GFR is the differential basal tone of the afferent and efferent arterioles (see diagram).

The low bloodflow through the vasa recta allows time for osmotic equilibration, and can be altered by changing the resistance of the vessels' efferent arterioles.

(2) it increases renin release from the juxtaglomerular cells of the afferent and efferent arterioles, which are the major storage sites for renin.

Polkissen cells aka juxtaglomerular cells are located between the afferent and efferent arterioles at the vascular pole of the glomerulus, adjacent to the macula densa.

These vessels branch off the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary nephrons (those nephrons closest to the medulla), enter the medulla, and surround the loop of Henle.

In mammals, an elegant rete mirabile in the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary glomeruli is important in maintaining the hypertonicity of the renal cortex.

Catecholamines (Norepinephrine and Epinephrine) increase the filtration fraction by vasoconstriction of afferent and efferent arterioles, which is possibly activated by alpha 1 adrenergic receptors.

As the TAL ascends through the renal cortex, it encounters its own glomerulus, bringing the macula densa to rest at the angle between the afferent and efferent arterioles.

Efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary nephrons (i.e., the 15% of nephrons closest to the medulla) send straight capillary branches that deliver isotonic blood to the renal medulla.

The renal protection effect is related to the antihypertensive effects in normal and hypertensive patients, renal vasodilatation resulting in increased renal blood flow and dilatation of the efferent arterioles.
