Heterogeneity of glomerular perfusion and filtration induced by epinephrine and norepinephrine

Heterogeneity of glomerular perfusion and filtration induced by epinephrine and norepinephrine

The role of catecholamines in the distribution of intrarenal blood flow and in single-nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR) was evaluated in anesthetized Wistar rats by the Hanssen technique. Epinephrine (EPI) and norepinephrine (NOR) were infused to produce elevations of 20-30 mmHg in mean art...
