| 41. | In the nephron, osmotic diuretics act at the portions of the nephron that are water-permeable.
|
| 42. | Some connecting tubules, usually associated with juxtamedullary nephrons, arch upwards before reaching the cortical collecting ducts.
|
| 43. | It then passes through thin ciliated tubules into the pronephric nephron where it is processed for solute recovery.
|
| 44. | In vivo lineage tracing showed that LGR5 is expressed in nascent nephron cell cluster within the developing kidney.
|
| 45. | One recent report illustrates a biomimic nephron on hydrogel microfluidic devices with establishing the function of passive diffusion.
|
| 46. | Hyponatremia can also promote lithium retention by increasing reabsorption in the distal nephron, thus increasing lithium levels.
|
| 47. | The glomerular filtration rate of single nephrons in birds is low because avian glomeruli have small surface area.
|
| 48. | A rise in blood creatinine level is a late marker, observed only with marked damage to functioning nephrons.
|
| 49. | The nephrons of pork kidneys are skilfully excised, and the kidneys are soaked for several hours and cleaned.
|
| 50. | Kidney function naturally declines with age due to the gradual loss of nephrons ( filters ) in the kidney.
