Per gram of tissue, the kidneys are among our most highly perfused organs. Yet the renal cortex and, in particular, the renal medulla are susceptible to hypoxia. In turn, hypoxia is a major pathophysiological feature of both acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. We identify seven factors that render the kidney susceptible to hypoxia: (1) the large metabolic demand imposed by active reabsorption...
Computational models have made a major contribution to the field of physiology. As the complexity of our understanding of biological systems expands, the need for computational methods only increases. But collaboration between experimental physiologists and computational modellers (ie theoretical physiologists) is not easy. One of the major challenges is to break down the barriers created by differences...
