Commentary on. . .Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase: Its Role and Regulation in Macula Densa Cells

[摘要] The macula densa control of renin secretion and tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) both occur in the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) of nephrons. The renin-angiotensin system has basked in attention for 2 decades, while TGF remains arcane to all but those who study it. Nonetheless, the body’s internal environment is regulated, in large part, by these two systems.
