The Nephron & Diuretic Sites
An animated nephron — filtrate flow from glomerulus to urine, with where acetazolamide, mannitol, loop diuretics, thiazides, and K-sparing agents act.
The filtrate flows from Bowman’s capsule through the tubule to urine. Each numbered site shows a transporter and the diuretic that acts there.
- Filtrate flow, glomerulus → urine
- The five diuretic classes and where they act
- The transporters behind them: CA, NKCC2, NCC, ENaC
This is one of many living diagrams inside the Redox QBank, connected to notes and practice questions so it sticks.
