The purpose of the mesangial cells of the renal corpuscle is believed to be aiding in phagocytosis. Mesangial cells are able to engulf and break down unwanted materials such as debris or immune complexes that may accumulate in the glomerulus, helping to maintain the cleanliness and efficiency of the filtration system in the kidney.
