Ghrelin ameliorates blood-brain barrier disruption during systemic hypoxia.

abstract：NEW FINDINGS:What is the topic of this review? This review describes the role of renal nerves as the key carrier of signals from the kidneys to the CNS and vice versa; the brain and kidneys communicate through this carrier to maintain homeostasis in the body. What advances does it highlight? Whether renal or autonomic ...
