| In birds, the process of urinary concentration involves dilution of glomerular filtrate by the reabsorption of sodium chloride in the thick ascending limb of looped nephrons. |
| Oxytocin has been shown to have an intrinsic antidiuretic effect, acting to increase water reabsorption from the glomerular filtrate. |
| The glomerular tufts were shrunken or necrotic and renal medullary rays were congested. |
| Numerous glomerular wireloop lesions and hyaline capillary loop thrombi were seen. |
| Renin is secreted from the juxtaglomerular apparatus of the kidney in response to glomerular underperfusion or a reduced salt intake. |
| This filtration occurs from the glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule to form tubular fluid. |
