As shown iu Fig. 28, the excretoryduct sends lobular branches to these ductules between the cells,and also to the interior of each cell. The blood-vessels penetrate into tbe gland along with thepancreatic duct, ramify in the lobes, and form a capillary network. •• FIG. 28.—Section of two fragments of human pancreas.

The pancreas contains nerve fibres, both medullated andnon-medullated, which unite with the sympathetic ganglia andthe isolated ganglion cells. On staining with Golgis methodthe fine nerve-fibrils can be followed into the alveoli. In some ii EXTERNAL DIGESTIVE SECRETIONS 89 , cat, numerous corpuscles of Pacini are seen in thepancreas. VII. The pancreatic, like the salivary, secretion is under thecontrol of the nervous system, for it begins a few minutes afterthe food has e
