Abstract: 

The individual functional unit оf the kidney (the nephron) displays oscillations in its regulation оf the incoming blood flow аt two different time scales: fast oscillations associated with а myogenic dynamics of the afferent arteriole, and slower oscillations arising from а delay in the tubuloglomerular feedback. The paper investigates the intra- and inter-nephron interactions of these two modes. Besides full synchronization, both wavelet analyses of experimental data and numerical simulations of a detailed physiological model reveal the occurrence of а partial entrainment in which neighboring nephrons attain а state оf synchronization with respect to their slow dynamics, but the fast dynamics remain desynchronized.
