title: Transport of horseradish peroxidase from the cell surface to the Golgi in insulin-secreting cells: preferential labelling of cisternae located in an intermediate position in the stack.
abstract: We have used serial sectioning to study the topology of Golgi cisternae in insulin-secreting cells during secretion-stimulated endocytotic uptake of exogenous horseradish peroxidase (HRP). HRP-labelled cisternae were followed on several series of consecutive sections. This revealed that labelled cisternae could always be traced to a position in the Golgi stack intermediate between the cis and the trans poles. This occurred in spite of the apparent cis or trans locations of HRP-containing cisternae on some sections. The latter images could be explained by the lack of the true cis or trans (clathrin-coated) cisternae at certain levels of the stack.
