Fine Structure of Podocytes in the Bovine Renal Corpuscle

[摘要] References(11)Thick primary processes issued from the hemispherical or plate-like cell bodies of podocytes in bovine renal corpuscles. These processes branched into secondary and tertiary ones, but no fine pedicels were observed on the outer surface of the podocytes by scanning electron microscopy, because each primary process closely interdigitated with those of adjacent cells. Many pedicels, however, were observed under the processes by using the freeze-fractograph and a transmission electron microscope.
