Fig. 2. — Oxygen tension (Po₂) profiles in the interstitium of the 4 regions (R1–R4) in the base case (A), assuming that nitric oxide (NO) does not inhibit medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL) NaCl reabsorption (B), and assuming that O₂⁻ does not stimulate mTAL NaCl reabsorption (C). x/L denotes the ratio of the axial coordinate to total length of outer medulla. In all cases, the red blood cell (RBC) permeability to NO (P_NO^rbc) is kept constant, and the O₂⁻ generation rate (G_O₂⁻) is taken to vary in parallel with Po₂.
