The fine structure of the glomeruli as revealed by freeze-fracturing
Contributions to Nephrology
|January 1, 1975
Abstract:
Isolated glomeruli of the rat kidney were investigated using the freeze-fracture method. The observations were consistent with those made on thin sections. Only exceptionally components of zonulae occludentes were seen between the capillary endothelial cells. The split membrane of mesangial cells revealed aspects of gap junctions.
