ADH affects the last two-thirds of these tubes, called the distal convoluted tubule and the collecting ducts.

ADH作用于这些小管的终末2/3部分，即远曲小管和集合管。

Now, that calcium's still in the lumen, but parathyroid hormone also affects the distal convoluted tubule and increases calcium reabsorption.

这时，钙仍然在腔内，但甲状旁腺激素也会影响远曲小管，增加对钙的再吸收。

Now, that calcium's still in the lumen, though, but parathyroid hormone also affects the distal convoluted tubule and increases calcium reabsorption.

现在，钙仍然在腔内，但是甲状旁腺激素也会影响远曲小管增加钙的再吸收。

Macula densa cells are located in the distal convoluted tubule and they can sense when levels of sodium and chloride are low.

致密斑位于远曲小管，可以感受到钠和氯水平降低。

So when ADH is low, most of the water flows through the the distal convoluted tubule and the collecting duct, giving us diluted urine.

所以当血中ADH水平低时，大部分水就顺着远曲小管和集合管排出体外，尿液也就被稀释。

Some substances are removed from blood through the peritubular capillary network into the distal convoluted tubule or collecting duct.

有些物质通过管周毛细血管网从血液中移出，进入远曲小管或集合管。

Aldosterone is secreted in response to elevated levels of renin, and it's role is to bind to receptors on two types of cells along the distal convoluted tubule of the nephron.

肾素水平升高可刺激醛固酮的分泌，后者的作用是结合肾远曲小管中两种细胞上的受体。
