Cells expressing PAX8 (nucleus, red) considered podocyte precursors, line the outer Bowman’s capsule. Activated during the low salt-fasting mimicking diet (LS-FMD), the cells migrate and ...

The integrity of Bowman's capsule may play a role in the progression of lupus nephritis, according to investigators. Bowman’s capsule rupture may be an important marker of pathologic changes and high ...

The glomerulus is a cluster of coiled capillaries at the beginning of each nephron, surrounded by the Bowman capsule. Blood entering the kidney through the afferent arteriole is filtered in the ...

The nephron has a renal tubule and dilated blind end like a funnel. This dilated funnel like part is called Bowman's Capsule. Each human kidney contains about 1 million filtering units called nephrons ...

A new study has revealed that certain cells contribute to kidney function decline, making them attractive targets for treatments against kidney failure. The blood-filtering cells in the kidneys- ...
