URINARY SYSTEM

GROSS STRUCTURE OF KIDNEY

? Hemisection of kidney shows--
? Cortex--outer
? Medulla--inner
Pyramids -- the triangular-shaped divisions (8-12) of

the medulla

Papilla -- narrow, innermost tip of the pyramid;
? Calyx--minor (8-12) and major (2-3) calyces.
? Pelvis --Renal pelvis is an extension of the upper

end of the ureter.

? Renal columns--Cortex at the margin of each

pyramid extends inward.

? Medullary rays--Collection of straight tubules

and collecting ducts extending in cortex.

? Lobes of kidney--Renal pyramid with its

overlying cortex and renal columns.

? Kidney lobule--Centrally placed medullary ray

with its laterally placed cortical area.

? Kidney lobules = medullary rays = 20,000
? Cortex of kidney consists of 2-3 million tubular

structure called nephrons.

? NEPHRONS--
? Functional unit of kidney
? Cortical nephron--located in the cortex
? Juxtamedullary nephron--located in the

corticomedullary junction

? Parts--
? Renal corpuscles
? Proximal convoluted tubules
? Loop of Henle
? Distal convoluted tubules

? RENAL CORPUSCLE (Malpighian Corpuscle)
? Glomeruli surrounded by Bowman's capsules
? Bowman's capsule -- the cup-shaped top of a

nephron. It is the sack-like that surrounds the

glomerulus.

? Glomerulus -- a network of blood capillaries

(afferent & efferent arteriole) tucked into

Bowman's capsule.

? Renal corpusles has two poles-- vascular pole

and urinary pole

? Juxtaglomerular Apparatus
? Present near the vascular pole of renal

corpuscle.

? There are three cellular components of the

apparatus which are the--

1. Macula densa
2. Extra mesangial cells
3. Juxtaglomerular cells
? Macula densa Specialized cells in the

beginning of DCT that lie adjacent to afferent

and efferent arterioles.

? Extra mesangial cells Present in the space

between distal tubule, afferent and efferent

arterioles.

? Juxtaglomerular cells modification of

smooth muscle cells in the wall of afferent

arteriole which lie close to macula densa.

? Glomerular

filtration

barrier--

? Endothelial

cells

? Fused basal

lamina

? Filtration slit
? Bowman's capsule

-Cells of the outer or parietal layer--simple squamous

epithelium.

-Cells of the inner layer or visceral layer--podocytes
? Proximal convoluted tubule-- Simple cuboidal

epithelium with brush border

? Loop of henle--

-Descending limb (thick & thin)

-Ascending limb (thin & thick)
? Thin segment lined by simple squamous epithelium
? Distal convoluted tubule-- simple cuboidal (no brush

border)

? Collecting tubules and ducts-- simple cuboidal

epithelium



URETER

? Tube like structure with star shaped lumen.
? Conduct urine from renal pelvis to urinary

bladder.

? Layers of ureter--
? Mucosa
? Muscular layer
? Adventitia

? Mucosa--
-Lining epithelium-- transitional epithelium
-Lamina propria--loose connective tissue
? Muscular layer--
-Inner longitudinal smooth muscle
-Outer circular smooth muscle
-Third outer layer of longitudinal (middle &

lower part)

? Adventitia--loose connective tissue contains

blood vessels and nerves
URINARY BLADDER

? Layers in the wall of urinary bladder--
? Mucosa--transitional epithelium
? Muscular layer--thick , smooth muscles fibres

(transverse, longitudinal and oblique )

? Serosa/adventitia
