Abstract
Fluoride-resistant acid phosphatase (extralysosomal) activity has been investigated in Pacinian sensory corpuscles from cat's mesentery. The activity was found in the innermost and intermediate layers of the capsular system, but it is not possible to establish its exact localization. The central axon and the inner core were FRAP negative. The authors discuss the possible functional significance of FRAP activity in sensory corpuscles.
