Term Name: | metanephric glomerular parietal epithelial cell fate commitment |
---|---|
Synonyms: | metanephric Bowman's capsule cell fate commitment |
Definition: | The process in which the developmental fate of a cell becomes restricted such that it will develop into a metanephric glomerular parietal epithelial cell. Metanephric glomerular parietal epithelial cells are specialized epithelial cells that form tight junctions as a barrier to protein transport. These cells may also give rise to podocytes. |
