Fetal rat pancreases explanted on the 18th day of gestation and maintained in organ culture for 1–10 days were utilized for this series of studies. Ultrastructurally, at the time of explantation, the majority of fetal B cells was sparsely granulated and characterized by numerous free ribosomes and undeveloped rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and Golgi complexes. During the culture period, extensive development of the RER and Golgi complexes preceded an increasing accumulation of ß-granules. This later increase in the number of ß-granules and in the concentration of immunoreactive insulin was paralleled by a reduction of RER and Golgi complex activity. High resolution radioautographic studies of pulse-chase experiment over a 1 hr period demonstrated the shift of silver grains from the elements of the RER, through the Golgi region, and finally to the ß-granules. Incubation with 14C-labeled leucine demonstrated the incorporation of radioactivity into molecules possessing the immunological and electrophoretic properties of insulin. These studies indicate that de novo synthesis of (pro)insulin occurs also during culture of fetal rat pancreas explanted relatively late in gestation.

Ammonium chloride, a known inhibitor of lysosomal function, was found to be a rapid and potent inhibitor of 45Ca release from fetal rat bones in organ culture. The response to parathyroid hormone and prostaglandin E2 was inhibited in a dose-related, reversible fashion. The activity of the lysosomal enzyme beta-glucuronidase in the medium closely paralleled 45Ca release. Ammonium chloride may now be added to the list of antilysosomal agents that inhibit bone resorption in vitro.
