Adrenal cortex
Cells of zona fasciculata display the vacuolated cytoplasm resulting from the extraction of lipid during tissue processing. In addition to the lipid droplets, these steroid-secreting cells also have mitochondria with tubular cristae, abundant SER and secrete by diffusion into the surrounding capillaries. 1000x
