  • Title: [An ultrastructural immunocytochemical study of secretory granules of an adenohypophyseal tumor].
    Author: Cinti S, Sbarbati A, Balercia G, Zingaretti MC.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1982 Nov 15; 58(21):1394-9. PubMed ID: 6760883.
    Abstract:
    The unlabeled antibody peroxidase-antiperoxidase complex technique was used to stain for electron microscopy the secretory granules of a pituitary tumor that had been surgically removed from a woman with high serum prolactin levels. Granules were stained using anti-human prolactin serum. The diameter of the secretory granules was smaller than that measured for the granules of prolactin producing cells in normal human pituitary glands. A shortened storage phase would explain the diameter reduction.
