Histology of the Urinary System part 2

In this video we talk about the histology of the urinary system . We focus on the nephron, the functional unit of the kidney, the renal corpuscle ( glomerulus, podocyte, endothelial cell, glomerular barrier, Bowman's capsule, juxtaglomelural apparatus, juxtaglomerular cells, macula densa), the renal tubule (Proximal convoluted tubule, Henle’s loop, Distal convoluted tube, Collecting Duct) , the ureter and the urinary bladder along with their unique epithelium ( urothelium / transitional epithelium, umbrella / surface cells, intermediate cells) and their osmotic resistances. The pictures in the presentation are from Junqueira's Basic Histology 13th edition. The website used as a virtual microscope is www.histologyguide.com I hope this video proves helpful.
