Macula densa SGLT1-NOS1-TGF pathway mediates the glomerular hyperfiltration during hyperglycemia. An increase in glucose concentration at the luminal side of the macula densa upregulates the expression and activity of NOS1 via SGLT1, which blunts the TGF response and thereby promotes the rise in GFR.
