It is well-known that amylase is secreted in response to extracellular stimulation from the acinar cells. However, amylase is also secreted without stimulation. We distinguished vesicular amylase as a newly synthesized amylase from the accumulated amylase in secretory granules by short time pulse and chased with S-35-amino acid. The newly synthesized amylase was secreted without stimulation from secretory vesicles in rat parotid acinar cells. The secretion process did not include microtubules, but was related to microfilaments. p-Nitrophenyl beta-xyloside, an inhibitor of proteoglycan synthesis, inhibited the newly synthesized amylase secretion. This indicated that the newly synthesized amylase was secreted from secretory vesicles, not via the constitutive-like secretory route, which includes the immature secretory granules, and that proteoglycan synthesis was required for secretory vesicle formation.
