Specific granules are secretory vesicles found exclusively in cells of the immune system called granulocytes. They are also known as secondary granules.

It is sometimes described as applying specifically to neutrophils,^[1] and sometimes the term is applied to other types of cells.^[2]

These granules store a mixture of cytotoxic molecules, including many enzymes and antimicrobial peptides, that are released by a process called degranulation following activation of the granulocyte by an immune stimulus.

Specific granules are also known as "secondary granules".^[3]

Clinical significance

A specific granule deficiency can be associated with CEBPE.^[4]

Human neutrophils are filled with intracellular storage organelles, called granules and secretory vesicles, which differ in their content of soluble matrix proteins and membrane-bound molecules. To date, at least four distinct granule/vesicle subsets have been identified. These organelles may secret
