[Influence of inhibitors of energy metabolism on the interaction of neutral red with Ehrlich ascitic carcinoma cells].

Effects of energy metabolism inhibitors on the granule formation of neutral red in Ehrlich ascite carcinoma cells have no relation with the action of these agents on the ATP formation. Accumulation of neutral red by cells has no relation with granule formation and does not depend on the energy metabolism of cells. The action of 2,4-dinditrophenol, oligomycin, Tween-20, Tween-80 and sodium deoxycholate on the granule formation may be linked with direct action of these agents on the cell membranes, for example, on the Golgi membranes.
