I need information on an Acinar Pancreatic cell?

Question

Need to know its function of its organelles, such as:-

Rough ER

Gogi body

Secretory vesicles

Lysosomes

Zymogen Granules (Digestive enzymes)

Especially the last 3 of above, I'm not quite sure what each of them do (and do they all come from the Golgi body?)

Can someone please help or recommend websites

Answer 1

Serous cells, exemplified by pancreatic acinar cells, are glandular epithelial cells specialized for exocrine enzyme secretion.

A serous cell's cytoplasm is visibly polarized, with basophilic basal cytoplasm and variously-staining secretory vesicles (zymogen granules) concentrated in apical cytoplasm.  The basal basophilia is due to a concentration of protein synthetic organelles (ribosomes on rough endoplasmic reticulum).  The Golgi apparatus is usually located midway along the cell, typically in a supranuclear position.
