2023年10月30日 · Both the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system are responsible for innervating the kidneys. Thoracolumbar outflow from T10 to L1 provide vasomotor supply via the thoracolumbar splanchnic nerve, after …

2023年7月24日 · Innervation of the kidney includes both afferent and efferent fibers of the renal plexus. This plexus is a combination of fibers originating from the celiac plexus, intermesenteric plexus, and lumbar splanchnic nerves. Nerves from these plexuses attach along the renal artery and vein, entering the hilus of the kidney. The afferent innervation ...

INTRARENAL DISTRIBUTION OF EFFERENT RENAL SYMPATHETIC NERVES. The nerves innervating the kidneys are either efferent or afferent nerves. The efferent nerves derive from the neuraxis, i.e., para- and prevertebral ganglia, and enter the …

Kidney innervation refers to the neural connections and pathways that regulate various functions of the kidneys, such as renin expression and hemodynamic response to obstruction. It is believed to play a crucial role in the communication and coordination between the two kidneys and may influence their individual responses to obstruction.

The kidneys are innervated by efferent sympathetic and afferent sensory nerve fibers. Renal efferent innervation regulates renin release, epithelial solute transport and renal blood flow (Johns et al., 2011).

The kidney itself has a sensory innervation which forms the afferent limb of renorenal reflexes. The region primarily innervated appears to be the pelvic wall, although functional studies suggest they are also present in the cortical and medullary regions.

In addition to the rich supply of efferent sympathetic nerves, the kidney also has abundant afferent sensory innervation, i.e., nerve fibers proceeding from the kidney to the neuraxis. In contrast to the widespread distribution of the efferent sympathetic nerve fibers in the kidney, the majority of the afferent renal sensory nerves are located ...

2024年10月22日 · Both sympathetic and sensory nerves modulate kidney function through precise neural control. However, how the kidneys are innervated during development to support function remains elusive. Using light-sheet and confocal microscopy, we generated anatomical maps of kidney innervation across development.

2023年11月15日 · Kidney innervation consists of afferent sensory nerves that influence cardiovascular function through the relay of chemical and mechanical information from the kidney to the central nervous system (CNS), or efferent sympathetic nerves regulating renal function through the CNS (Osborn et al., 2021).

The intrinsic innervation of the kidney is described based on studies using ultrastructural, fluorescent, immunocytochemical, and autoradiographic techniques. The efferent sympathetic innervation reaches all the segments of the renal vasculature and to a much lesser extent the tubular nephron.
