Autoregulation - Renal Autoregulation

Renal Autoregulation

There is "autoregulation" of renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate in isolated kidneys. However it is likely that both these parameters change to some extent in vivo, e.g. hypotension, during exercise. Autoregulation is the relative independence, from systemic blood pressure, of glomerular filtration rate and renal blood flow over the physiological range of mean arterial pressure (c.80-180 mmHg)
