proximal convoluted tubule structure
The proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) is a small tubular structure within the nephron of the kidney.The PCT connects Bowman's capsule with the proximal straight tubule, and it is essential for the reabsorption of water and solutes from filtrate within the nephron.lomerular filtrate that has not been reabsorbed passes from the proximal convoluted tubule into the proximal straight tubule and into the loop of Henle and the distal convoluted tubule.
