Individual endocrine cells
Enteroendocrine cells, seen here in the intestinal glands of the small intestines, secrete their hormones into the connective tissue of the surrounding lamina propria. Therefore, the secretory granules in these cells are located adjacent to the basement membrane of the glands. Paneth cells are exocrine cells and their secretory granules lie adjacent to the lumen of the gland, into which they secrete. 1000x
