Regulation of GFR
Physiologically, GFR is auto-regulated very precisely with changes in the mean arterial pressure (MAP) (see figure below). Mechanisms of auto-regulation include: myogenic, tubuloglomerular, and the neuro-hormonal feedback.
 - Myogenic mechanisms
 - Tubuloglomerular feedback
 - Neuro-hormonal feedback
