Sympathetic nerve-derived ATP regulates renal medullary blood flow via vasa recta pericytes
Pericyte cells are now known to be a novel locus of blood flow control, being able to regulate capillary diameter via their unique morphology and expression of contractile proteins. We have previously shown that exogenous ATP causes constriction of vasa recta via renal pericytes, acting at a variet...
