TL;DR: The glial fibrillary acidic protein has been used by biologists as a tool to follow the normal or pathological glia cell differentiation in animal models and human pathology, particularly in the fields of neuropathology and neuro-oncology.

TL;DR: Three aspects of the secretory process in male rat prolactin (PRL) cells grown in primary cultures for 7--14 days have been investigated by cytochemical methods and a conspicuous deposit is found around the dense content of secretory granules suggests a recycling of internalized membrane and a transfer of Con A-HRP from the inner face of smooth cisternae to thesecretory material.

TL;DR: The binding sites of antisera (anti) to the beta (beta) subunits of rat follicle-stimulating hormone, rat luteinizing hormone, and rat thyroid- Stimulating hormone have been localized in rat anterior pituitaries by immunocytochemistry using light and electron microscopy and antigenicity was observed on secretory granules whatever the method used.

TL;DR: The data suggest that synaptophysin is released from the Golgi apparatus in a vesicular form, after glycosylation, and is then transported to nerve endings by a mechanism which requires integrity of microtubules.

TL;DR: The ultra-structural study enabled us to identify these cell types, to describe their spatial relationships, and to follow their evolution with time in culture, to identify primitive neuro-epithelial cells and typical neurosecretory cells.
