Cards from Science Photo Library
Renal collecting tubules
Renal collecting tubules. Light micrograph of a section through a healthy human kidney showing the collecting tubules (large ovals, seen end-on). The outer layer of each tubule is formed from cuboidal epithelial cells, whose nuclei are stained dark purple. Each collecting tubule forms part of a nephron. The nephrons are the functional units of the kidney that filter waste products from the blood to form urine. The tubules drain the filtered blood into the collecting ducts (not seen), from where the waste and excess water that form the urine are transported to the bladder. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of renal collecting tubules in a healthy human kidney. The image reveals large ovals, representing the cross-sections of these essential structures. Each tubule is composed of cuboidal epithelial cells, distinguished by their dark purple-stained nuclei. Renal collecting tubules are integral components of nephrons, which serve as the functional units responsible for filtering waste products from our blood to create urine. These tubules play a crucial role in draining filtered blood into unseen collecting ducts that ultimately transport waste and excess water to the bladder for elimination. The magnificence captured within this photograph lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its ability to offer us a glimpse into the complexity and functionality of our urinary system. It serves as a reminder of how intricately designed our bodies are, with each component working harmoniously to maintain overall health. Whether you have an interest in anatomy or simply appreciate the wonders found within our own bodies, this print provides an opportunity for contemplation and admiration. Let it inspire curiosity about the remarkable processes occurring within us every day and remind us to cherish and care for our incredible human form.
