what goes into bowman's capsule from the glomerulus
In the kidney, a tubular structure called the nephron filters blood to form urine. At the beginning of the nephron, the glomerulus is a network of capillaries that performs the first step of filtering blood. The glomerulus is surrounded by Bowmanâs capsule. The blood is filtered through the capillaries of the glomerulus into the Bowmanâs capsule. The Bowmanâs capsule empties the filtrate into a tubule that is also part of the nephron. The juxtaglomerular cells (JG cells, or granular cells) are cells in the kidney that synthesize, store, and secrete the enzyme renin.
