Definition of glomerulus in English:

glomerulus

nounPlural glomeruliɡlɒˈmɛr(j)ʊləsɡləˈmeryələs

Anatomy Biology

A cluster of nerve endings, spores, or small blood vessels, especially a cluster of capillaries around the end of a kidney tubule.
Example sentencesExamples
- In cases of severe intravascular hemolysis, the binding capacity of haptoglobin is exceeded rapidly, and free hemoglobin is filtered by the glomeruli.
- The glomerulus filters the blood and the waste products are removed.
- Pressure of blood in the glomerulus causes fluid to filter into Bowman's capsule.
- Men's kidneys have larger glomeruli than women's and they have a greater glomerular volume.
- IgA Nepropathy progressively ruins the kidneys' filtering units, called glomeruli.
- In the kidney, the glomeruli show thickened capillary walls and endothelial swelling.
- The glomeruli are tiny blood vessels within your kidneys that filter fluid, waste and other substances from your blood.
- Glucose normally is filtered by the glomerulus, but it is almost completely reabsorbed in the proximal tubule.
- The capillaries of glomeruli with cellular crescents were collapsed and showed few or no inflammatory cells.
- Your kidneys filter waste and sodium using tiny filters called glomeruli.
- The neoplastic cells surrounded glomeruli and invaded renal tubules forming lymphoepithelial lesions.
- Fairly well differentiated renal tissue with embryonic glomeruli and tubules.
