Term Name: glomerular endothelium fenestra Search Ontology:
Synonyms:
  • GEnC fenestration
  • glomerular endothelial cell fenestration
Definition: A large plasma membrane-lined circular pore that perforates the flattened glomerular endothelium and, unlike those of other fenestrated capillaries, is not spanned by diaphragms; the density and size of glomerular fenestrae account, at least in part, for the high permeability of the glomerular capillary wall to water and small solutes. 19129259
