We have shown previously that a moderate reflex increase in renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) elevated glomerular capillary pressure, whereas a more severe increase in RSNA decreased glomerular capillary pressure. This suggested that the nerves innervating the glomerular afferent and efferent arterioles could be selectively activated, allowing differential control of glomerular capillary pressure. A caveat to this conclusion was that intrarenal actions of neurally stimulated ANG II might… 
Neural control of renal function.
TLDR
The renorenal reflex coordinates the excretory function of the two kidneys so as to facilitate homeostatic regulation of sodium and water balance and proof of principle studies in essential hypertensive patients demonstrate that renal denervation produces sustained decreases in arterial pressure.
Novel targets for sepsis‐induced kidney injury: the glomerular arterioles and the sympathetic nervous system
TLDR
Experimental studies indicate that inhibition of central sympathetic outflow with α2‐adrenoceptor agonists or treatment with β1‐adRenoceptor antagonists might reduce mortality in experimental endotoxaemia and sepsis, and the possibility that these beneficial actions are partly dependent on a reduction in the excessive cytokine release caused by marked and prolonged sympathetic activation is discussed.

TLDR
A greater understanding of postnatal renal maturation and the impact of secondary factors (genes, sex, diet, stress, and disease) on this process is required to predict which babies are at risk of increased cardiovascular and renal disease as adults and to be able to devise preventative measures.
Sex differences in postnatal growth and renal development in offspring of rabbit mothers with chronic secondary hypertension.
TLDR
The impact of a stimulated maternal renin-angiotensin system in the 2K-1W model of hypertension may influence development of the renal sympathetic nerves and contribute to programming of adult hypertension.

Angiotensin II in adrenergic-induced alterations in glomerular hemodynamics.
TLDR
Renal nerve stimulation can regulate glomerular ultrafiltration by altering vascular resistances, and angiotensin II appears to be a critical factor for the full functional expression of renal nerve stimulation at the glomerulus.
Preglomerular and postglomerular resistance responses to different levels of sympathetic activation by hypoxia.
TLDR
Examination of the effects of graded reflex increases in renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) on renal preglomerular and postglomerular vascular resistances provides evidence that reflexly induced increases in RSNA amplitude may differentially control preglomerular andPostglomerular cardiovascular resistances.

TLDR
Moderate reflex increases in RSNA cause renal cortical vasoconstriction, but not at vascular sites regulating MBF, and MBF was unaffected by hypoxia in either group.

TLDR
It is concluded that Ang II activates renal sympathetic nerves that discharge in a continuous pattern, distinctly different than the normal baseline high-amplitude bursts of RSNA.
Glomerular hemodynamic alterations during renal nerve stimulation in rats on high- and low-salt diets.
TLDR
The constancy of glomerular hemodynamic responses to RNS in spite of wide variations in dietary salt intake indicates that functional renal hemodynamic differences observed as a result of NaCl intake must be primarily the consequence of differences in renal nerve traffic and not hormonal alterations.

TLDR
Analysis of the Starling forces acting across the peritubular capillaries showed that due largely to a uniform decrease in mean peritUBular capillary capillary hydraulic pressure, mean net reabsorption pressure rose substantially and significantly, on average by more than 5 mmHg.

TLDR
It is suggested that, in conscious rabbits, high-frequency oscillations of RSNA contribute to the vasoconstrictor tone, whereas the lower frequencies of RS NA contribute toThe variability of RBF.
