Abstract:1. The effect of angiotensin II-amide upon the intrarenal distribution of perfusate was studied in the isolated rat kidney.
2. Low concentrations of angiotensin, 4·86 pmol/l (0·005 μg/l), reduced the flow rate through the papilla but did not alter total flow.
3. Higher concentrations of angiotensin, 0·486 nmol/l (0·5 μg/l), reduced total renal flow but did not decrease papillary perfusion.
4. In these experiments the perfusion pressure was maintained constant, indic… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
