Fenestrated capillaries

Fenestrations perforating the endothelial cells are generally spanned by diaphragms, as seen here. The diaphragm is derived from the glycocalyx and is thinner than two apposed plasma membranes. Pores facilitate transport across the endothelium in organs where abundant and rapid transport is required. 60,000x (both)
