Abstract

The role of fluid shear stress is well established in vascular pathophysiology. However, urinary shear stress now also appears as a key mechanism in the regulation of renal function. In addition, there is a growing body of evidence showing that modified urinary shear stress is involved in the development of nephropathies. Therefore we review here the state-of-the-art on the pathophysiological roles of urinary shear stress.
