title: Autoradiographic demonstration of human 125I-interferon alpha in lysosomes of rabbit proximal tubule cells.
abstract: This investigation proves for the first time that by electron microscope autoradiography, 125I-interferon alpha can be located in the lysosomal system of the renal proximal tubule cells of the rabbit. The observation provides further evidence that the kidney has a major role in interferon catabolism.
