Poll glands of the one-humped camel were obtained to examine their secretory mechanism by lectin histochemistry, immunohistochemistry and scanning electron microscopy. The glands were composed of numerous conical lobules which consisted of apocrine tubules. Lectins of peanut agglutinin (PNA), Dolicos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) showed a variety of staining in the Golgi areas and secretory granules in secretory cells of the apocrine tubules. Most myoepithelial cells stained intensely with a-smooth muscle actin. Varicose nerve fibers immunostained with protein gene product 9.5 were scattered among apocrine tubules. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the luminal surface of secretory cells was covered with microvilli and that secretory cells pinched off smooth-surfaced apocrine blebs. After pinching off, crater-like pits remained on the luminal surface of secretory cells. These findings are similar to those obtained from the infraorbital glands of the serows.
获取单峰骆驼的睑板腺，通过凝集素组织化学、免疫组织化学和扫描电子显微镜检查其分泌机制。这些腺体由许多由顶浆分泌小管组成的锥形小叶构成。花生凝集素（PNA）、双花扁豆凝集素（DBA）和麦胚凝集素（WGA）在顶浆分泌小管分泌细胞的高尔基体区域和分泌颗粒中呈现出多种染色。大多数肌上皮细胞用α-平滑肌肌动蛋白染色强烈。用蛋白基因产物9.5免疫染色的曲张神经纤维散布在顶浆分泌小管之间。扫描电子显微镜显示，分泌细胞的管腔表面覆盖有微绒毛，并且分泌细胞会挤出表面光滑的顶浆分泌小泡。挤出后，分泌细胞的管腔表面会留下火山口状的凹坑。这些发现与从鬣羚眶下腺获得的发现相似。
