caption_attribution_description: English: Nephron, Diagram of the urine formation. The number inside tubular urin concentration in mOsm/l - when ADH acts Polski: Nefron, Schemat tworzenia moczu. Cyfry wewnątrz kanalików oznaczają lokalne stężenie w mOsm/l - gdy działa ADH (dochodzi do zagęszczania moczu).
context_page_description: Within the nephron of the kidney, the ascending limb of the loop of Henle is a segment of the heterogenous loop of Henle downstream of the descending limb, after the sharp bend of the loop. This part of the renal tubule is divided into a thin and thick ascending limb; the thick portion is also known as the distal straight tubule, in contrast with the distal convoluted tubule downstream.
