It consists of an initial convoluted portion, the pars convoluta, which is a direct continuation of the parietal epithelium of Bowman's capsule, and a straight portion, the pars recta, which is located in the medullary ray (see Fig. 1-5 ). [177] This segment is not normally present in the rat or human nephron. [3] The outside diameter Figure 1-19 Transmission electron micrograph of S1 segment of rat proximal tubule. The cells are characterized by a tall brush border, a prominent endocytic-lysosomal apparatus, and extensive invaginations of the basolateral plasma membrane.

148] Morphologic evidence suggests that the autonomic nervous system is involved in the regulation of the function of the juxtaglomerular apparatus. [149] Barajas and Müller,[150] studying the juxtaglomerular apparatus of the rat with serial-section techniques at the ultrastructural level, analyzed the frequency of contacts between axons and the various cellular components of the juxtaglomerular apparatus. Nerve endings, principally adrenergic in type, were observed to be in contact with approximately one third of the cells of the efferent arteriole and with somewhat less than one third of the cells of the afferent arteriole in the region of the juxtaglomerular apparatus.

151] Extensive studies by Kopp and DiBona[152] provided convincing evidence that renin secretion is modulated by renal sympathetic nerve activity, which is consistent with the existence of neuroeffector junctions on renin-positive granular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus. The juxtaglomerular apparatus represents a major structural component of the renin-angiotensin system. [157] This initiates the tubuloglomerular feedback response by which signals generated by acute changes in sodium chloride concentration are transferred via the macula densa cells to the glomerular arterioles to control the glomerular filtration rate.
