Renal nerve stimulation modulates renal blood flow in a frequency-dependent manner
Responses to renal nerve stimulation depend on stimulation frequency with effects that can persist or adapt as well as effects that can range from decreasing renal blood flow to decreasing the sensitivity of the renal nerve signaling pathway. These findings have important implications for future development of bioelectronic interfaces with the renal nerve for modulation of kidney function.
