Juxtamedullary nephron contains a longer loop of Henle which extends deeper into the inner medulla. Juxtamedullary nephrons have a vital role in concentrating urea. Only 15% of the nephrons in the human kidney are juxtamedullary nephrons. The renal corpuscle of the juxtamedullary nephrons is found in the renal medulla. These nephrons contain a large glomerulus, increasing the glomerular filtration rate of the nephron.
