Diuresis can be induced osmotically or, more commonly, by pharmacologic blockade of sodium reabsorption at various sites along the nephron. The basic rule is that, although they can modulate a greater bulk of sodium, efficacy of proximal diuretics may be overcome by distal compensatory increases in sodium reabsorption in the loop of Henle. The efficacy of distal diuretics on the other side is limited by the small portion of sodium actually reaching the distal tubule.  4, record 1, English, - distal%20diuretic

The convoluted portion of the vertebrate nephron that lies between Bowman's capsule and the loop of Henle, is made up of a single layer of cuboidal cells with striated borders, and functions especially in the resorption of sugar, sodium and chloride ions, and water from the glomerular filtrate.  2, record 2, English, - proximal%20convoluted%20tubule

Chaque rein contient environ un million de néphrons. Chacun est constitué d’un glomérule, qui est entouré d’une structure à paroi fine, en forme de bonnet(la capsule de Bowman), d’un petit tube(tubule) qui recueille le matériel provenant de l'espace de la capsule de Bowman et d’un tube collecteur, qui draine l'urine du tube. Lorsque le liquide devient de l'urine, il atteint les canaux collecteurs. Les tubules sont composés de trois parties intriquées : le tube contourné proximal, l'anse de Henle et le tube contourné distal.  3, record 2, French, - tubule%20contourn%C3%A9%20proximal

The convoluted portion of the nephron lying between the loop of Henle and the nonsecretory part of the nephron and concerned especially with the concentration of urine.  2, record 3, English, - distal%20convoluted%20tubule

The distal tubule is divided into two segments with very different properties. The early distal tubule extends from the juxtaglomerular apparatus to the middle of the distal convolution. The late distal tubule continues from there to the cortical collecting duct and is morphologically and functionally similar to the collecting duct.  3, record 3, English, - distal%20convoluted%20tubule

A U-shaped part of the nephron of birds and mammals that lies between and is continuous with the proximal and distal convoluted tubules and that functions in water resorption.  3, record 4, English, - Henle%27s%20loop

The principal function of the loop of Henle appears to be the recovery of water and sodium chloride from the urine. This function allows production of urine that is far more concentrated than blood, limiting the amount of water needed as intake for survival. Many species that live in arid environments such as deserts have highly efficient loops of Henle.  4, record 4, English, - Henle%27s%20loop

Partie du tube urinifère, située entre le tubule proximal et le tubule distal, qui, avec le glomérule, forme le néphron(unité fonctionnelle du rein).  3, record 4, French, - anse%20de%20Henle

L’anse de Henle forme une boucle en épingle à cheveux qui s’enfonçe assez profondément dans la partie médullaire rénale (partie interne du tissu rénal). Elle joue un rôle fondamental dans les phénomènes de concentration (du sodium surtout) et de dilution des urines.  3, record 4, French, - anse%20de%20Henle
