The juxtaglomerular apparatus is part of the kidney nephron, next to the glomerulus. It is found between afferent arteriole and the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle (distal straight …

2024年4月15日 · The juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA), also referred to as the juxtaglomerular complex, is a specialized region of the nephron formed by three different types of cells: macula …

The juxtaglomerular cell is a cell that is located near the glomerulus, hence its name. Similar to cardiac tissue, juxtaglomerular cells harbor β1 adrenergic receptors . When stimulated by …

2021年11月26日 · Juxtaglomerular apparatus is located at the vascular pole of each glomerulus where the afferent and efferent arterioles come in close contact with the initial part of the distal …

The juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) is located at the vascular pole of the glomerulus, where a portion of the distal nephron comes into contact with its parent glomerulus. The main …

2008年10月25日 · The juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) is located between the afferent arteriole and the returning distal convoluted tubule of the same nephron. It is responsible for regulating …

In adult kidneys, renin is produced by the juxtaglomerular (JG) cells located within the afferent arterioles at the entrance of the glomeruli. However, under chronic renin stimulation (e.g., …

2011年8月12日 · Juxtaglomerular Apparatus or Complex is a specialized region of a nephron where the afferent arteriole and Distal Convoluted Tubule (DCT) come in direct contact with …

The juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA, Figure 318.1b) is a structural and functional unit in which paracrine signals are transmitted between the macula-densa cells (differentiated tubule cells at …

The juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) is composed of the macula densa (MD), the extraglomerular mesangium, and the juxtaglomerular arterioles. The JGA functions to adapt glomerular …
