*[[The Formation of the Filtrate by the Glomerular Apparatus- Anatomy & Physiology|'''Glomerulus''']] - A mass of anastomsing capillaries encased in the Bowman's capsule. The function of the glomerulus is to filter components of the blood before they pass to the tubules. The filtrate that is formed consists of water and low molecular weight constituents. The afferent arteriole supplies the glomerulus and the efferent arteriole drains it.

*'''Growth factors''' - Various chemicals particularly polypeptides, that have a variety of important roles in the stimulation of new cell growth and cell maintenance. They bind to cell surface receptors.
