Enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells are included in the endocrine cells present in the gastric oxyntic mucosa, and have been attracting attention as histamine-secreting cells contributing to gastric secretion. However, the anatomical location of ECL cells in relation to parietal cells and chief cells
Increased renal production of vasodilator mediators like kinins would counteract the vasospasm of pre-eclampsia. This study examines the cellular localisation of tissue kallikrein (TK), the potent kinin forming enzyme within the nephron of patients with early onset pre-eclampsia. Using the peroxidas
Ultrastructural immunolocalization of the atrial natriuretic factor pathways in fetal, neonatal, and adult Syrian hamsters: from the atrial cardiomyocytes to the circulation via the endocardium, atrial capillaries and epicardium.

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF)-immunoreactivity was identified with peroxidase-antiperoxidase staining and immunoelectron microscopic gold labeling techniques in atrial tissues of fetal, newborn and adult Syrian hamsters. ANF-immunoreactive (ANF-IR) material was present in electron dense granules o
emiocytosis /emio·cy·to·sis/ (e″me-o-si-to´sis) the ejection of material, e.g., insulin granules, from a cell. e·mi·o·cy·to·sis or e·mei·o·cy·to·sis ( m - -s -t s s). n. See exocytosis. emiocytosis. a form of glandular secretion in which granules storing the ...
ex·o·cy·to·sis ( k s -s -t s s). n. pl. ex·o·cy·to·ses (-s z ). A process of cellular secretion or excretion in which substances contained in vesicles are discharged from the cell by fusion of the vesicular membrane with the outer cell membrane.
