Cluster of tiny blood vessels in a nephron?
There's the afferent arteriole which goes to the glomerulus and the efferent arterioles which comes out of the glomerulus. These arterioles then branch out surrounding the nephron, these are called peritubular capillaries and they allow for selective reabsorption of substances as well as secretion.
