Electron microscopic evidence suggesting secretory granule formation within the Golgi apparatus

M G FARQUHAR et al. J Biophys Biochem Cytol. .

Abstract

Secretory granules have been seen within components of the Golgi bodies of rat pituitary acidophils and mouse pancreatic acinar cells. The fact that secretory granules are much more frequently encountered within Golgi components under conditions of increased secretory activity suggests that granule formation may occur within the Golgi apparatus in these two types of cells.
