Abstract
Administration of vinblastine (5 mg/kg) in two doses intraperitoneally to rats induced a prominent formation of autophagic vacuoles in rat liver parenchymal cells. Four hours after the first injection of vinblastine, clearly recognizable organelles were seen inside these vacuoles, and by 12 h the cells were filled with residual body type of lysosomes. As compared with glucagon administration, vinblastine was followed by a far greater degree of autophagy, and therefore, offers an excellent model for future studies on autophagy.
