Abstrakt: It can be shown by light and electron microscopic autoradiography thatI triiodothyronine andI thyroxine bind to the cell membrane of Tetrahymena. For thyroxine the finer localization is at the cilia as well as in pinocytotic and food vacuoles. Some grains also appear above the nucleus. On the other hand, insulin only binds to the membrane of Tetrahymena, and binding can be inhibited by unlabelled insulin. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
