  • Title: Some aspects of the secretory activity of the human olfactory glands.
    Author: Lucheroni A, Maurizi M, Spreca A, Palmerini CA, Binazzi M.
    Journal: Rhinology; 1986 Mar; 24(1):57-60. PubMed ID: 3704466.
    Abstract:
    Two kinds of secretions, both merocrine and apocrine, have been detected in the serous adenomeres of the human olfactory glands. While the low-density vesicles secrete their products into the glandular lumen by a merocrine way (exocytosis), the electron-dense granules are produced by an apocrine mechanism.
