title: Volume reabsorption by the loop of Henle: a micropuncture study.
abstract: The observed extension of glomerulo-tubular beyond the proximal tube is thought to be due either to flow dependent reabsorption by non-accessible proximal segments and pars recta, or to osmotic volume flow out of the descending limb of the loop of Henle.
