Acid phosphatase was localized in lysosomes of non-granulated, folliculo-stellate pituitary cells 72 h after estrogen was withdrawn from primed male rats. The appearance of lysosomes and the accumulation of lipid droplets in folliculo-stellate cells coincide with the clearance of lipid from pituitary mammotropes. Positive identification of lysosomes supports our proposal in a previous study that folliculo-stellate cells are phagocytic.
在对经雌激素预处理的雄性大鼠撤去雌激素72小时后,酸性磷酸酶定位于无颗粒的滤泡星形垂体细胞的溶酶体中。滤泡星形细胞中溶酶体的出现和脂滴的积累与垂体催乳细胞中脂质的清除同时发生。溶酶体的阳性鉴定支持了我们在先前研究中提出的滤泡星形细胞具有吞噬作用的观点。
