Distribution of all the constituting cells of glomerulus and juxtaglomerular apparatus in adult mouse. The four reconstructed images are the same as those shown in Fig. 4A-D. The nuclei of all cells that make up the glomerulus and juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) are reconstructed: P, podocyte (purple); RC, renin cell (light blue); EGMC, extraglomerular mesangial cell (yellow); GEnC, glomerular endothelial cell (red); MDC, macula densa cell (orange); IGMC, intraglomerular mesangial cell (yellow). The number of cells in this glomerulus is as follows: 119 podocytes, 122 glomerular endothelial cells, and 76 intraglomerular mesangial cells. The number of cells in this JGA is as follows: 34 extraglomerular mesangial cells, 19 macula densa cells, and 6 renin cells. AA, afferent arteriole; EA, efferent arteriole; GBM, glomerular basement membrane; EGM, extraglomerular mesangium; IGM, intraglomerular mesangium.
