Cell Type Overview

Acinar cells are the exocrine secretory cells of glands like the salivary glands and pancreas. In the pancreas, they are organized into acini and synthesize, store, and secrete digestive pro-enzymes (zymogens) into a ductal network. They have a highly developed rough ER and abundant secretory (zymogen) granules. When stimulated (e.g., by cholecystokinin), they release their contents into the pancreatic duct, which empties into the duodenum.
