Subcellular structures of pancreatic acinar cells were examined at six evenly spaced time points in the 24-h period (light cycle: 06.00 h–18.00 h) in four Wistar male rats at each time point. At each sampling point, the area and circumference of acinar cell bodies and the area, number and circumference of their cytoplasmic organelles were measured using a semiautomatic computer system for morphometry and a point-counting metho
