Abstract
Administration of 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide has been known to produce pulmonary tumors in rodents (1-3). An electron microscopic examination on the lung of rats shortly after an injection of this compound revealed induction of nucleolar segregation in the alveolar epithelial cells (4). In this experiment, it was further shown that an injection of 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide could produce pulmonary edema in rats as well as in guineapigs and rabbits.
