the membrane which stretches across the filtration slits in the renal corpuscle. filtration pressure. the net driving force which pushes fluid into tissue spaces and out of vascular sites; the net result between capillary osmotic pressure and intravascular hydrostatic pressure.ithin the space is the filtering mechanism, a mass of anastomosing mesodermal spindle cells with many perforations between them. filtration barrier. the physiological function which limits the passage of small molecules through the renal corpuscle.
