title: Exocytosis-endocytosis coupling in the pancreatic beta cell.
abstract: The stimulation of the release of insulin by glucose is accompanied by an enhanced uptake of cytochemically demonstrable horseradish peroxidase into endocytotic vesicles within the beta cells. An exocytosis-endocytosis coupling might represent a mechanism by which membrane constituents are recycled within the beta cells under conditions of increased secretory activity.
