Lack of Munc13-4 alters the ultrastructural changes associated with MC exocytosis. Peritoneal MCs fixed after exposure to PI. Sham, Munc13-4+/+ MCs exposed to vehicle. A, representative cell profiles before and after stimulation. Scale bar = 4 μm. B, relative electron lucency of MC granules based on a 0 (black) to 255 (white) scale. n = ∼40 granules/cell, 30 cells/animal, four animals. C–F, stereological analysis of MC profiles. Vv, volume density; Sv, surface density; Hypodense, granules with relative electron lucency >150; Compound, multigranular profiles sharing a single delimiting membrane. n = 30 cells/animal, four animals. * = p < 0.001; all comparisons are to Munc13-4+/+ unless otherwise indicated.
