摘要
Control rats and rats treated with subcutaneous trypan blue were injected intravenously with denatured albumin-I125. Lysosome-rich fractions of their livers, when incubated at 22°C in osmotically protected medium (pH 7.4), retained their capacity to digest albumin-I125. The rate of digestion was lower in suspensions prepared from rats treated with trypan blue than in control suspensions, but rates of lysosome breakage were not different. These results and other experimental evidence suggest that trypan blue concentrated within lysosomes can inhibit intralysosomal digestion, probably by inhibition of lysosomal proteinases.
