| 1 | Increasing luminal NaCl concentration increases nNOS activity, NO production, and apical Na+/H+ exchange. | Sodium Chloride | nitric oxide synthase, brain | Oryctolagus cuniculus |
| 2 | We hypothesized that inhibiting apical Na+/H+ exchange in macula densa cells would augment TGF by blunting nNOS activation caused by increasing luminal NaCl concentration. | Sodium Chloride | nitric oxide synthase, brain | Oryctolagus cuniculus |
| 3 | Thus, it is possible that increased apical Na+/H+ exchange caused by increasing the sodium concentration in the lumen of the macula densa activates macula densa nNOS. | Sodium | nitric oxide synthase, brain | Oryctolagus cuniculus |
