Title: Mesangium cells in renal glomeruli (XVI) of the kidney
Description:
(A): Glomerulus, electron microscopy scheme, human. (1) Mesangium cell. (2) Podocyte.
(B): Electron microscopy of mesangium, rat. The mesangium cell (1) is located below the fenestrated endothelial cell (3).
Note that the glomerular basal lamina (GBL) distinctly encircles the mesangium cell bordering it from the podocytes at the one hand
and at the other hand continues in the GBL of the capillaries (arrows).
(C, D, E): Electron microscopy, immunogold labeling with antibodies HS4C3 against heparan sulfate (HSPG) being a component of the glomerular basal laminae and of the mesangial matrix, rat. In (C) between projections of mesangial cell (1) distinct labeling occurs as well
as close to the adhering foot processes of the podocytes (2). (D, E) Detail HSPG labeling in the GBL in the mesangial area (1). (2) Podocyte.
Keywords/Mesh: urinary system, kidney, glomerulus, glomerular basal lamina, podocyte, pedicle, mesangium cell, mesangium, heparan sulfate, histology, electron microscopy, POJA collection
