Abstract
Hope of interrupting the progression of renal disease has stimulated investigation into the mechanism(s) responsible for the eventual destruction of remaining nephrons. Recent experimental evidence has suggested that therapeutic interventions that limit the adaptive increases in capillary pressures and flows when functioning nephron number is reduced are associated with structural preservation of the surviving nephrons.
