The spine of Henle, also known as the "Henle's spine," refers to a feature in the anatomy of the nephron, specifically in the loop of Henle. It is a structural projection that helps support the loop's shape and is involved in the reabsorption of water and electrolytes in the kidney. This region plays a crucial role in concentrating urine and maintaining the body's fluid balance.
The Spine of Henle is a small bony projection located in the cochlea of the inner ear. It extends from the osseous spiral lamina to help support the basilar membrane and organ of Corti, which play key roles in hearing by detecting sound vibrations and transmitting them to the brain via the auditory nerve.
