Abstract
DATA on the lipids in the singular apparatus are but scarce as yet1. Of those published hitherto, the data on lipoidal bodies found in the endocrine cells of the pancreas in mice and men2,3 were of greatest interest. Lipids have been observed in diverse tissues to become bound to other substances, predominantly proteins, with which they form stable complexes. For such complexes, named ‘bound lipids’, a special technique for establishing their presence in the tissue has been proposed4.
