Abstract

The topographical localization of the mesangial cells in renal glomeruli of rats, and their relationships with the structures at the hilus of the glomerulus were studied in this investigation. It was observed that the mesangial cells occupy a parietal position in the wall of the glomerular capillaries, and that they are anatomically continuous with the smooth muscle cells of the tunica media of the glomerular arterioles.
