  • Title: Vascular heterogeneity in the kidney.
    Author: Molema G, Aird WC.
    Journal: Semin Nephrol; 2012 Mar; 32(2):145-55. PubMed ID: 22617763.
    Abstract:
    Blood vessels and their endothelial lining are uniquely adapted to the needs of the underlying tissue. The structure and function of the vasculature varies both between and within different organs. In the kidney, the vascular architecture is designed to function both in oxygen/nutrient delivery and filtration of blood according to the homeostatic needs of the body. Here, we review spatial and temporal differences in renal vascular phenotypes in both health and disease.
