Renal corpuscle

This electron micrograph shows a portion of a glomerulus, separated from the parietal layer of Bowman’s capsule by Bowman’s space.  The parietal layer consists of a simple squamous epithelium, which is continuous with the visceral layer (podocytes) at the vascular pole of the glomerulus.  4000x
