glomerular

Relating to or affecting a glomerulus or the glomeruli.

Pertaining to or of the nature of a glomerulus, especially a renal glomerulus.

• g. basement membrane — the structure located between endothelial cells of renal capillaries and the visceral epithelial cells of the glomerulus. It functions as a barrier to filtration of large molecules.
• g. capsule — Bowman's capsule.
• g. crescent — see glomerular crescent.
• g. diseases — see glomerulonephritis, glomerulonephropathy, glomerulopathy.
• g. filtrate — the acellular low-protein ultrafiltrate of plasma that passes the glomerulus.
• g. filtration — see glomerulus.
• g. filtration rate — varies widely depending on diet. It is the ability of the renal tubules to vary their absorbing capacity that ensures there is no great electrolyte loss during the periods of high rates of glomerular filtration.
• g. lipidosis — characterized by the presence of large foam cells in glomerular tufts in dogs. They appear to have no disease significance.
• g. permeability — in normal subjects the capillary endothelium of the glomerulus, by virtue of its fenestration, is permeable to all blood constituents except blood cells and colloids so that the glomerular filtrate has a close similarity to plasma and interstitial fluid but has a lower protein concentration than both of them.
