  • Title: Histology, ultrastructure and carbohydrate histochemistry of pig carpal glands.
    Author: Gargiulo AM, Pedini V, Ceccarelli P.
    Journal: Anat Histol Embryol; 1989 Dec; 18(4):289-96. PubMed ID: 2624320.
    Abstract:
    The morphological differences between two types of secretory cells (clear and dark) from pig carpal glands were examined. The main difference is the presence in the dark cells of secretory granules of moderate electron density, made up of acidic and neutral glycoproteins. The possible functional purposes of the carpal glands and of glycogen present in both cell types are also discussed.
