F / col TEM of acinar cells in exocrine pancreas
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) featuring two elongated, acinar cells of the exocrine human pancreas. Arranged in rounded glands, these cells secrete an alkaline, enzyme rich fluid into the duodenum via the small duct (in blue) at top of image. The pancreatic secretions act to neutralise the acidic contents of the stomach as they move into the small intestine. The pyramidal-shaped cells contain a rounded nucleus (blue) with a prominent nucleoli (red). Granules of pancreatic enzyme pass through the cytoplasm towards the duct at top. Magnification: x3000 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of acinar cells in the exocrine pancreas. Through false-color transmission electron microscopy, two elongated acinar cells are elegantly displayed within rounded glands. These specialized cells play a vital role in our digestive system by secreting an alkaline, enzyme-rich fluid into the duodenum via a small duct depicted in blue at the top of the image. The pancreatic secretions serve a crucial purpose: neutralizing the acidic contents from our stomach as they enter the small intestine. The pyramidal-shaped acinar cells contain a prominent nucleus portrayed in blue, accompanied by striking nucleoli highlighted in red. As we zoom into this microscopic world, granules of pancreatic enzymes can be observed traversing through the cytoplasm towards their ultimate destination -the duct at the top. At a magnification of x3000 and presented on a 6x7cm size format, this photograph captures not only the mesmerizing structure but also emphasizes its significance within our body's complex machinery. It is truly remarkable how these tiny components work harmoniously to ensure proper digestion and maintain overall health. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into cellular anatomy and function that leaves us marveling at nature's ingenuity.
