How can you use “tubule” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The hypodynamic state is usually seen early in adrenal insufficiency and is associated with volume depletion from diarrhea, vomiting, and decreased reabsorption of sodium in the distal tubule.
Based on histologic evidence, glomerular endothelial cells have been invoked as being primarily involved in HUS renal injury [ 7 ] . In vitro studies have demonstrated that human glomerular endothelial cells (HGEN) bind Stx-1 and are modestly sensitive to the toxin's cytotoxic effect [ 8 ] . Recent work indicates that other renal cell types may be Stx targets in HUS: cultured human proximal tubule (HPT) [ 9 ] and human visceral glomerular epithelial (HGEC) [ 10 ] cells express abundant amounts of Gb3 and are highly sensitive to the cytotoxic effect of Stx-1.
The overall effect of TEA in descending thin limb was to cause a 49% block of J V and a 50% block of P f . The pairwise comparison of individual tubule preparations, before and after TEA, showed a significant percent change of (-) 52 ± 6 % (mean ± SEM; n = 10) in descending thin limb.
In this equation, V i (initial perfusion rate, nl/min) is calculated by dividing the cpm of 14C in the collected fluid by the cpm/nl of 14C in the initial perfusate and by the time of the collection period; V o (collection rate, nl/min) is measured directly from the collection; and L (mm) is the length of the tubule perfused, measured with an ocular micrometer.
The AQP1-mediated ion conductance may contribute measurably to the function of tissues in which AQP1 is abundantly expressed, such as in the mammalian renal proximal tubule [ 13 ] . Further work is needed to assess the additional levels of regulatory control that may constrain the availability of the AQP1 proteins to serve as ion channels gated by cGMP, within a background of constitutive water channel activity.
