Dense-cored membranous structures in smooth muscle cells of the vas deferens of the rat
Abstract
Smooth muscle cells from rat vas deferens were studied by electron microscopy. Vesicular and tubular membranous structures containing an electron-opaque material were found in the smooth muscle cells. Similar structures were also found in a subfraction (F3) of microsomes of vas deferens smooth muscle which was shown to be rich in both plasma membrane and putative endoplasmic reticulum markers. Treatment of the tissues with calcium-free Krebs …
