This article is a review article which describes the mechanisms of renal pressure autoregulation. Specifically it describes the myogenic response and a macula densa - tubuloglomerular feedback (MD-TGF). The article also talks about the fact that diabetic and hypertensive kidneys have impaired pressure autoregulation which may lead to more damage to the renal parenchyma.
