Abstract:
Ultrastructural analysis of the rat pancreas following the long-term exposure to lead revealed the presence of numerous intermediate cells in animals receiving lead acetate in doses of 500 ppm and 1000 ppm for 4 and 6 weeks. The cells included acinar-beta, beta-acinar and intermediate cells containing two kinds of endocrine granules- alpha and beta, and zymogen granules.
