  • Regional Auto registration is mediated by the delivery of filtered sodium to the macula densa.

  • decrease in BP --> Hypo-perfusion of the glomerulus leads to decrease sodium filtration, and activation of RAAS by the macula densa, which causes AT-2 mediated constriction of the glomerular efferent arteriole, and consequent increase in intraglomerular pressure/GFR.
