Physiology
The sympathetic nervous system primarily uses norepinephrine (also known as noradrenaline) as its neurotransmitter. It is released from the synaptic terminals of postganglionic sympathetic fibers and acts on adrenergic receptors, which are found on various target cells throughout the body. This neurotransmitter is essential for the body's "fight or flight" response, contributing to increased heart rate, dilated pupils, and other physiological changes associated with stress or emergency situations.

Physiology
The afferent arterioles are part of the juxtaglomerular apparatus along with the macula densa and efferent arterioles. When the macula densa detects a decrease in sodium chloride delivery, it triggers the juxtaglomerular cells in the afferent arterioles to release renin, which is the initial step in the RAAS.
