| Oxytocin has been shown to have an intrinsic antidiuretic effect, acting to increase water reabsorption from the glomerular filtrate. |
| These arterioles frequently showed continuity at the glomerular hilum with segmental necrotizing glomerular lesions. |
| In general, tubulointerstitial diseases progress more slowly than do glomerular diseases, diabetic and hypertensive nephropathy, and polycystic kidney disease. |
| In addition to hydrostatic pressure, GFR is influenced by glomerular plasma osmotic pressure. |
| Nervousness and stress can increase blood pressure which in turn will increase glomerular filtration. |
| Renin is secreted from the juxtaglomerular apparatus of the kidney in response to glomerular underperfusion or a reduced salt intake. |
