Survival in Hostile Environments: Strategies of Renal Medullary Cells

Wolfgang Neuhofer and Franz-X. Beck

Department of Physiology, University of Munich, Munich, Germany Wolfgang.Neuhofer{at}med.uni-muenchen.de

Cells in the renal medulla exist in a hostile milieu characterized by wide variations in extracellular solute concentrations, low oxygen tensions, and abundant reactive oxygen species. This article reviews the strategies adopted by these cells to allow them to survive and fulfill their functions under these extreme conditions.
