Abstract

Multiple rough endoplasmic cisternae were found in the parenchymatous cells of the endocrine pancreas of the adult rat (alpha, beta, D and intermediary cells) and were especially developed in beta cells. They are considered to be normal constituents of the parenchymatous cells of the endocrine pancreas. Their close proximity to Golgi dictyosomes and the accumulation of secretory material sometimes seen at the extremities of such cisternae, suggest that they may have a role in the secretory activity of these endocrine cells.
