| | The oncotic pressure in Bowman's capsule that would favor filtration is zero (i.e., proteins aren't normally present in the filtrate). | | | The fluid filtration forces includes capillary hydrostatic pressure (i.e., the blood pressure inside the capillary), the hydrostatic pressure inside Bowman's capsule, the plasma oncotic pressure (i.e., the osmotic pressure due to plasma proteins), and the oncotic pressure in Bowman's capsule. | | | Thus, the pressures that determine glomerular filtration rate (GFR) into Bowman's capsule predominate, and unlike other capillary beds, there is not a reabsorption of filtrate at the distal or venous end (forces do not favor fluid movement from Bowman's space into the glomerular capillaries). |
