Abstract
In dogs, an autografted kidney was reinnervated by anastomosis of the central end of the vagus with the peripheral end of the renal nerve. Glomerular filtration and tubular water reabsorption determined by the inulin method showed no essential difference between the transplanted reinnervated and intact kidneys. There were no significant differences either between the transplanted reinnervated and intact kidneys with respect to phenol red excretion or glucose and sodium isotope tubular reabsorption. Reinnervation from the central end of the vagus improved renal function in the autografted kidney disturbed by transplantation.
