Glomerular podocyte (V) in the kidney
5.4.1 POJA-L2369+2944+La0053+2381
Title: Glomerular podocyte (V) in the kidney
Description:
(A): Glomerulus, electron microscopy scheme, human.
(1) Epithelial cell (parietal cell) lining the Bowman’s capsule.
(2) Podocyte that engulfs the blood capillary with small finger-like primary and secondary processes (3, 4).
(5) Lamina basalis of the capillary.
(6) Capillary endothelium .
(7) Mesangium cell.
(8) Primary urine space.
(B): Glomerulus, electron microscopy, perfusion-fixed, rat. Equivalent to the scheme in (A, C).
(C): Detailed scheme equivalent to (A).
(D): Glomerulus, scanning electron microscopy, perfusion-fixed, rat. The podocyte (2) that engulfs with “fingers” the capillaries.
The gap between adjacent processes is a filtration slit membrane.
Keywords/Mesh: urinary system, kidney, glomerulus, podocyte, mesangium cell, histology, electron microscopy, POJA collection
