  5. Tubuloglomerular feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubuloglomerular_feedback

    Tubuloglomerular feedback is one of several mechanisms the kidney uses to regulate glomerular filtration rate (GFR). It involves the concept of purinergic signaling, in which an increased distal tubular sodium chloride concentration causes a basolateral release of adenosine from the macula densa cells. This initiates a cascade of events that ...
