Abstract

Objective To observe the ultrastructrues of renal proximal tubule in pig kidney. Methods Electron microscopy was used. Results The results show that the proximal tubule was composed of four segments,S1,S2,S3 and S4.S1 and S2 constitute the proximal convoluted parts and S3 and S4 constitute the proximal staight parts. The epithelial cells of each segment were described ultrastructurally in detail. Conclusions The proximal tubule of pig kidney has the similar ultrastructures as that of human kidney.
