Micropuncture study of ion and water reabsorption regulation range in the distal tubule of triton nephron

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2005 Jan;139(1):43-5. doi: 10.1007/s10517-005-0207-4.

Abstract

Micropuncture of the distal tubule in triton nephron and ultramicroanalysis of samples showed that vasotocin stimulates transport of Ca2+, Na+, Mg2+, and Cl- from the nephron lumen and increases permeability of the tubular wall for water. Prostaglandin E2 suppresses these processes.
