Research Abstract |
The present study demonstrated highly symmetrical organization of the Golgi apparatus and microtubule network in the pituitary gonadotropes by immunocytochemistry and electron microscopy. These findings possibly reflect the poor polarity of the endocrine cells and are well consistent with the contextual usage of the microtubule-dependent motors that maintain the organization of the Golgi apparatus.
