hyaline droplets in hepatocytes. P, exocrine pancreas; c Treated with 1 mg 1-1 TPTH, showing congestions of sinusoids (S) and central vein. Note marked increase in lipid vacuolation (L); d Treated with
3 mg rl TPTH showing more severe sinusoidal congestion (S) and lipid vacuolation (L), adapted from
