The renal glomerulus in hypoxic cor pulmonale.
We measured the mean capillary tuft area by a custom-built semi-automatic technique in postmortem sections from the kidneys of 16 patients with "blue and bloated" chronic bronchitis and emphysema and in seven patients of similar age who were free of respiratory and renal disease at death. Nine bronchitic patients had received domiciliary oxygen treatment while seven had not. The mean glomerular...
متن کاملElectron Microscopy of the Avian Renal Glomerulus
Electron microscopy of sections of chicken glomeruli shows them to possess a large central cell mass, occupying the hilum and the centre of the glomerulus, and continuous with the adventitia of the afferent and efferent arterioles. The glomerular capillaries form a much simpler system than in mammals and are spread over the surface of the central cell mass. Between the capillaries the mass is l...
متن کاملCollagen Fibrils within the Renal Glomerulus
The fine structure of the frog glomerulus has been described in detail by Pak Poy (2); the present observations confirm his findings as far as its principal structure is concerned. He pointed out that the main morphological difference between the frog glomerulus and those of mammals is in the basement membrane, that is, the structure between endothelial and epithelial (podo-cyte) cells. Beneath...
متن کاملChimerism of the renal glomerulus revisited.
Since the early descriptions of Alport syndrome, when the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) was found split into multiple laminar strands, investigators have wondered about the contribution of various cell types in the differential synthesis of these strands1; podocytes and endothelia flanking the GBM were always potential candidates. To address this issue, investigators began to examine vario...
متن کاملTransport of Globin by the Renal Glomerulus
Purified human globin injected into rats forms aggregates which are identifiable by their characteristic appearance in thin sections in the electron microscope and by their positive autoradiographs when the globin is tritiated before injection. Globin is taken up by endothelial cells of glomerular capillaries and is transported across the cell within the limits of a surrounding membrane. Globin...
