Growth inhibition of breast cancer cells by Grb2 downregulation is correlated with inactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase in EGFR, but not in ErbB2, cells. (1/9099)

Increased breast cancer growth has been associated with increased expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Upon activation, RTKs may transmit their oncogenic signals by binding to the growth factor receptor bound protein-2 (Grb2), which in turn binds to SOS and activates the Ras/Raf/MEK/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway. Grb2 is important for the transformation of fibroblasts by EGFR and ErbB2; however, whether Grb2 is also important for the proliferation of breast cancer cells expressing these RTKs is unclear. We have used liposomes to deliver nuclease-resistant antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (oligos) specific for the GRB2 mRNA to breast cancer cells. Grb2 protein downregulation could inhibit breast cancer cell growth; the degree of growth inhibition was dependent upon the activation and/or endogenous levels of the RTKs. Grb2 inhibition led to MAP kinase inactivation in EGFR, but not in ErbB2, breast cancer cells, suggesting that different pathways might be used by EGFR and ErbB2 to regulate breast cancer growth.  (+info)

Astrocyte-specific expression of tyrosine hydroxylase after intracerebral gene transfer induces behavioral recovery in experimental parkinsonism. (2/9099)

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the depletion of dopamine in the caudate putamen. Dopamine replacement with levodopa, a precursor of the neurotransmitter, is presently the most common treatment for this disease. However, in an effort to obtain better therapeutic results, tissue or cells that synthesize catecholamines have been grafted into experimental animals and human patients. In this paper, we present a novel technique to express tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the host's own astrocytes. This procedure uses a transgene in which the expression of a TH cDNA is under the control of a glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) promoter, which confers astrocyte-specific expression and also increases its activity in response to brain injury. The method was tested in a rat model of Parkinson's disease produced by lesioning the striatum with 6-hydroxydopamine. Following microinjection of the transgene into the denervated striatum as a DNA-liposome complex, expression of the transgene was detected by RT-PCR and TH protein was observed specifically in astrocytes by using double-labeling immunofluorescence for GFAP and TH coupled with laser confocal microscopy. Efficacy was demonstrated by significant behavioral recovery, as assessed by a decrease in the pharmacologically induced turning behavior generated by the unilateral denervation of the rat striatum. These results suggest this is a valuable technique to express molecules of therapeutic interest in the brain.  (+info)

Gating connexin 43 channels reconstituted in lipid vesicles by mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation. (3/9099)

The regulation of gap junctional permeability by phosphorylation was examined in a model system in which connexin 43 (Cx43) gap junction hemichannels were reconstituted in lipid vesicles. Cx43 was immunoaffinity-purified from rat brain, and Cx43 channels were reconstituted into unilamellar phospholipid liposomes. The activities of the reconstituted channels were measured by monitoring liposome permeability. Liposomes containing the Cx43 protein were fractionated on the basis of permeability to sucrose using sedimentation in an iso-osmolar density gradient. The gradient allowed separation of the sucrose-permeable and -impermeable liposomes. Liposomes that were permeable to sucrose were also permeable to the communicating dye molecule lucifer yellow. Permeability, and therefore activity of the reconstituted Cx43 channels, were directly dependent on the state of Cx43 phosphorylation. The permeability of liposomes containing Cx43 channels was increased by treatment of liposomes with calf intestinal phosphatase. Moreover, liposomes formed with Cx43 that had been dephosphorylated by calf intestinal phosphatase treatment showed increased permeability to sucrose. The role of phosphorylation in the gating mechanism of Cx43 channels was supported further by the observation that phosphorylation of Cx43 by mitogen-activated protein kinase reversibly reduced the permeability of liposomes containing dephosphorylated Cx43. Our results show a direct correlation between gap junctional permeability and the phosphorylation state of Cx43.  (+info)

U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of AmBisome (liposomal amphotericin B) for treatment of visceral leishmaniasis. (4/9099)

In August 1997, AmBisome (liposomal amphotericin B, Nexstar, San Dimas, CA) was the first drug approved for the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The growing recognition of emerging and reemerging infections warrants that safe and effective agents to treat such infections be readily available in the United States. The following discussion of the data submitted in support of the New Drug Application for AmBisome for the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis shows the breadth of data from clinical trials that can be appropriate to support approval for drugs to treat tropical diseases.  (+info)

Systemic candidiasis with candida vasculitis due to Candida kruzei in a patient with acute myeloid leukaemia. (5/9099)

Candida kruzei-related systemic infections are increasing in frequency, particularly in patients receiving prophylaxis with antifungal triazoles. A Caucasian male with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML M1) developed severe and persistent fever associated with a micropustular eruption scattered over the trunk and limbs during induction chemotherapy. Blood cultures grew Candida kruzei, and biopsies of the skin lesions revealed a candida vasculitis. He responded to high doses of liposomal amphotericin B and was discharged well from hospital.  (+info)

Pharmacokinetics and urinary excretion of amikacin in low-clearance unilamellar liposomes after a single or repeated intravenous administration in the rhesus monkey. (6/9099)

Liposomal aminoglycosides have been shown to have activity against intracellular infections, such as those caused by Mycobacterium avium. Amikacin in small, low-clearance liposomes (MiKasome) also has curative and prophylactic efficacies against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae. To develop appropriate dosing regimens for low-clearance liposomal amikacin, we studied the pharmacokinetics of liposomal amikacin in plasma, the level of exposure of plasma to free amikacin, and urinary excretion of amikacin after the administration of single-dose (20 mg/kg of body weight) and repeated-dose (20 mg/kg eight times at 48-h intervals) regimens in rhesus monkeys. The clearance of liposomal amikacin (single-dose regimen, 0.023 +/- 0.003 ml min-1 kg-1; repeated-dose regimen, 0.014 +/- 0.001 ml min-1 kg-1) was over 100-fold lower than the creatinine clearance (an estimate of conventional amikacin clearance). Half-lives in plasma were longer than those reported for other amikacin formulations and declined during the elimination phase following administration of the last dose (from 81.7 +/- 27 to 30.5 +/- 5 h). Peak and trough (48 h) levels after repeated dosing reached 728 +/- 72 and 418 +/- 60 micrograms/ml, respectively. The levels in plasma remained > 180 micrograms/ml for 6 days after the administration of the last dose. The free amikacin concentration in plasma never exceeded 17.4 +/- 1 micrograms/ml and fell rapidly (half-life, 1.47 to 1.85 h) after the administration of each dose of liposomal amikacin. This and the low volume of distribution (45 ml/kg) indicate that the amikacin in plasma largely remained sequestered in long-circulating liposomes. Less than half the amikacin was recovered in the urine, suggesting that the level of renal exposure to filtered free amikacin was reduced, possibly as a result of intracellular uptake or the metabolism of liposomal amikacin. Thus, low-clearance liposomal amikacin could be administered at prolonged (2- to 7-day) intervals to achieve high levels of exposure to liposomal amikacin with minimal exposure to free amikacin.  (+info)

Morphological behavior of acidic and neutral liposomes induced by basic amphiphilic alpha-helical peptides with systematically varied hydrophobic-hydrophilic balance. (7/9099)

Lipid-peptide interaction has been investigated using cationic amphiphilic alpha-helical peptides and systematically varying their hydrophobic-hydrophilic balance (HHB). The influence of the peptides on neutral and acidic liposomes was examined by 1) Trp fluorescence quenched by brominated phospholipid, 2) membrane-clearing ability, 3) size determination of liposomes by dynamic light scattering, 4) morphological observation by electron microscopy, and 5) ability to form planar lipid bilayers from channels. The peptides examined consist of hydrophobic Leu and hydrophilic Lys residues with ratios 13:5, 11:7, 9:9, 7:11, and 5:13 (abbreviated as Hels 13-5, 11-7, 9-9, 7-11, and 5-13, respectively; Kiyota, T., S. Lee, and G. Sugihara. 1996. Biochemistry. 35:13196-13204). The most hydrophobic peptide (Hel 13-5) induced a twisted ribbon-like fibril structure for egg PC liposomes. In a 3/1 (egg PC/egg PG) lipid mixture, Hel 13-5 addition caused fusion of the liposomes. Hel 13-5 formed ion channels in neutral lipid bilayer (egg PE/egg PC = 7/3) at low peptide concentrations, but not in an acidic bilayer (egg PE/brain PS = 7/3). The peptides with hydrophobicity less than Hel 13-5 (Hels 11-7 and Hel 9-9) were able to partially immerse their hydrophobic part of the amphiphilic helix in lipid bilayers and fragment liposome to small bicelles or micelles, and then the bicelles aggregated to form a larger assembly. Peptides Hel 11-7 and Hel 9-9 each formed strong ion channels. Peptides (Hel 7-11 and Hel 5-13) with a more hydrophilic HHB interacted with an acidic lipid bilayer by charge interaction, in which the former immerses the hydrophobic part in lipid bilayer, and the latter did not immerse, and formed large assemblies by aggregation of original liposomes. The present study clearly showed that hydrophobic-hydrophilic balance of a peptide is a crucial factor in understanding lipid-peptide interactions.  (+info)

Identification of mechanosensitive ion channels in the cytoplasmic membrane of Corynebacterium glutamicum. (8/9099)

Patch-clamp experiments performed on membrane fragments of Corynebacterium glutamicum fused into giant liposomes revealed the presence of two different stretch-activated conductances, 600 to 700 pS and 1,200 to 1,400 pS in 0.1 M KCl, that exhibited the same characteristics in terms of kinetics, ion selectivity, and voltage dependence.  (+info)

Efficacy and Safety of A Liposome-Based Vaccine against Protein Tau, Assessed in Tau.P301L Mice That Model TauopathyEfficacy and Safety of A Liposome-Based Vaccine against Protein Tau, Assessed in Tau.P301L Mice That Model Tauopathy
Progressive aggregation of protein Tau into oligomers and fibrils correlates with cognitive decline and synaptic dysfunction, leading to neurodegeneration in vulnerable brain regions in Alzheimers disease. The unmet need of effective therapy for Alzheimers disease, combined with problematic pharmacological approaches, led the field to explore immunotherapy, first against amyloid peptides and recently against protein Tau. Here we adapted the liposome-based amyloid vaccine that proved safe and efficacious, and incorporated a synthetic phosphorylated peptide to mimic the important phospho-epitope of protein Tau at residues pS396/pS404. We demonstrate that the liposome-based vaccine elicited, rapidly and robustly, specific antisera in wild-type mice and in Tau.P301L mice. Long-term vaccination proved to be safe, because it improved the clinical condition and reduced indices of tauopathy in the brain of the Tau.P301L mice, while no signs of neuro-inflammation or other adverse neurological effects were

The incorporation of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-conjugated lipids in lipid-based carriers substantially prolongs the circulation lifetime of liposomes. However, the mechanism(s) by which PEG-lipids achieve this have not been fully elucidated. It is believed that PEG-lipids mediate steric stabilization, ultimately reducing surface-surface interactions including the aggregation of liposomes and/or adsorption of plasma proteins. The purpose of the studies described here was to compare the effects of PEG-lipid incorporation in liposomes on protein binding, liposome-liposome aggregation and pharmacokinetics in mice. Cholesterol-free liposomes were chosen because of their increasing importance as liposomal delivery systems and their marked sensitivity to protein binding and aggregation. Specifically, liposomes containing various molecular weight PEG-lipids at a variety of molar proportions were analyzed for in vivo clearance, aggregation state (size exclusion chromatography, quasi-elastic light ...

Liposome Encapsulation of Fluorescent Nanoparticles: Quantum Dots and Silica NanoparticlesLiposome Encapsulation of Fluorescent Nanoparticles: Quantum Dots and Silica Nanoparticles
Quantum dots (QDs) and silica nanoparticles (SNs) are new classes of fluorescent probes that overcome the limitations encountered by organic fluorophores in bioassay and biological imaging applications. We encapsulated QDs and SNs into liposomes by the reverse-phase evaporation method. Nanoparticle-loaded liposomes were separated from unencapsulated nanoparticles by size exclusion chromatography and their characteristics were investigated. Dual-color, two-photon fluorescence correlation spectroscopy was used to measure the number of nanoparticles inside each liposome. Results indicated that nanoparticle-loaded liposomes were formed and separated from unencapsulated nanoparticles by using Sepharose gel. As expected, fluorescence self-quenching of nanoparticles inside liposomes was not observed. When a 0.8 mM solution of 50 nm QDs was used for liposome preparation, each liposome encapsulated an average of three QDs. However, we could not measure the number of SNs inside each liposome due to the spectral

Munin: Investigation and optimization of liposome formulation for use as drug carrier for the anticancer agent CamptothecinMunin: Investigation and optimization of liposome formulation for use as drug carrier for the anticancer agent Camptothecin
In this thesis, the method development and investigation of different liposomal formulations to incorporate and retain Camptothecin (CPT) is described. CPT is a potent anticancer drug that has shown to be active against a broad spectrum of cancers. However, due to its challenging physicochemical properties, like poor water solubility, severe toxic effects to normal tissues and instability, its clinical development has been limited for nearly 40 years. A strategy to overcome CPTs challenging properties is to use liposome-based carrier system. By taking advantage of this carrier system, we may solubilise CPT in the phospholipid bilayer of liposomes, protect it from blood proteins and achieve a selective drug accumulation in tumor tissues or tumor-associated cells by enhanced permeability and retention effect (EPR). A good liposome formulation of clinical utility must fulfil two important criteria. The liposomal drug carrier must incorporate CPT in the liposomal bilayer in a relevant therapeutic ...

A promising strategy to improve the immunogenic potential of DNA vaccines is the formulation of plasmid DNA (pDNA) with cationic liposomes. In this respect, particle size may be of crucial importance. This study aimed at the evaluation of high-pressure extrusion as a method for sizing cationic liposomes after entrapment of pDNA. This is a well-known sizing method for liposomes, but so far, it has not been applied for liposomes that are already loaded with pDNA. Liposomes composed of egg PC, DOTAP, and DOPE with entrapped pDNA were prepared by the dehydration-rehydration method and subjected to various extrusion cycles, comparing different membrane pore sizes and extrusion frequencies. At optimized extrusion conditions, liposome diameter (Zave) and polydispersity index (PDI) were reduced from 560 nm and 0.56 to 150 nm and 0.14 respectively, and 35% of the pDNA was retained. Importantly, gel electrophoresis and transfection experiments with pDNA extracted from these extruded liposomes demonstrated ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Liposomal drug delivery system. AU - Maruyama, Kazuo. AU - Kennel, Stephen. AU - Huang, Leaf. PY - 1990/8/1. Y1 - 1990/8/1. N2 - We have recently described an immunoliposome targeting system which involves the use of monoclonal antibodies specific for the pulmonary endothelial cells. We have employed the antibodies, 34A and 201B, which bind to a surface glycoprotein, gp112, which is specifically expressed in high concentrations in the capillary endothelial cells of the mouse lung. Intravenously injected immunoliposomes (34A- or 201B-liposomes) to the mice gain direct access and bind efficiently to the lung. Approximately 50% of the injected dose was accumulated in the lung for 34A-liposomes which contained an average of 935 antibody molecules per liposome. Lung accumulation of 34A-liposomes is completely blocked by a preinjection of free antibody 34A, indicating that the immunoliposome accumulation at the target site is immunospecific. The level of lung accumulation increases ...

Another new technology to increase the accumulation of liposomes at the target site is immunoliposomes. Immunoglobulins, especially those of the IgG class, are attached to the surface of the liposomes. They act as ligands-molecules that connect to a site on a receptor protein-capable of recognizing and binding to tissue at sites of interest. However, most immunoliposomes are still eliminated by the liver before they can deliver significant results. One way to meet this challenge is to use stealth liposome technology: Coat the immunoliposomes with PEG to create long-circulating liposomes. Currently, one immunoliposome formulation is in clinical trials, a PEGylated DXR formulated to recognize gastric, colon, and breast cancer cells ...

A Complete Guide to Liposomal Glutathione - The Top SupplementsA Complete Guide to Liposomal Glutathione - The Top Supplements
Liposomal glutathione is a certain type of supplement. Liposomal supplements offer a delivery system that ensures effective delivery into the cells and rapid uptake.. Liposomes are especially good as an antioxidant delivery system because theyre prepared from natural phospholipids, are biocompatible and are nontoxic.. What all this means in simpler terms is that liposomal delivery systems are a good way to take supplements like glutathione because they protect the therapeutic molecules from breaking down in your digestive system.. Typically when you take a supplement, and especially one thats not normally that bioavailable like glutathione, much of the value is lost by the time it reaches your cells because it breaks down in your digestive system.. The goal is to get as much of the value of the glutathione to your cells as possible, which can be achieved through liposomal delivery.. Research found that liposomes can increase cellular delivery 100 times over non-liposomal ...

Soft nanogels are submicron-sized hydrophilic structures engineered from biocompatible polymers possessing the characteristics of nanoparticles as well as hydrogels, with a wide array of potential applications in biotechnology and biomedicine, namely, drug and protein delivery. In this work, nanogels were obtained using the physical self-assembly technique or layer-by-layer which is based on electrostatic interactions. Liposomal vesicles were coated with alternating layers of hyaluronic acid and chitosan yielding a more viscous hydrogel formulation that previously reported core-shell nanoparticulate suspension, via simply modifying the physico-chemical characteristics of the system. Structural features, size, surface charge, stability and swelling characteristics of the nanogel were studied using scanning electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering. With a specific cranio-maxillofacial application in mind, the hydrogel was loaded with recombinant human (rh) bone morphogenetic protein-7, also

The study of different strategies to improve the stability and bioavailability of bioactive components has increased in the last decades. One of the mechanisms that has acquired great relevance is to formulate using liposomal vesicles. Liposomes are structures that enhance the absorption, stability and transport of active compounds, which is reflected by an increase in the bioactivity of the encapsulated molecules. The guarana extract has proven to be rich in methylxanthines and phenolic compounds. These metabolites are associatedto a wide variety of pharmacological properties, and exert a stimulating effect. For this reason, it has become popular in nutritional products. In this workit was characterized physicochemically a nutritional product based on guarana, vitamins and folic acid. In this product the active components were encapsulated in liposomal vesicles, which were analyzed to know their structure, size (diameter) and membrane thickness. Results and analysis indicate that liposomes are ...

IDEALS @ Illinois: Polymers, Nanoparticles and PhospholipidsIDEALS @ Illinois: Polymers, Nanoparticles and Phospholipids
In addition, we find binding of charged nanoparticles to the outer surface of phospholipid liposomes produces particle-stabilized liposomes that repel one another and do not fuse. Subsequently, the volume fraction can be raised as high as ∼50%, reversibly, still without fusion. In studies of liposome longevity, we verify the stability of particle-stabilized liposome suspensions with volume fraction up to 16% for up to 50 days, the longest period investigated. In contrast to the stabilized liposomes, the volume fraction of the same liposomes without nanoparticles is typically less than ∼2% with a longevity of 4∼5 days. Fluorescent dyes are encapsulated within the particle-stabilized liposomes, without leakage. Although these particle-stabilized liposomes are stable against fusion, ∼75% of the outer liposome surface remains unoccupied, which is still biofunctionalizable tested with ligand-receptor binding. This work not only provides a robust nanoparticle-liposome complex system which ...

Munin: Development of targeted liposome drug delivery vehicleMunin: Development of targeted liposome drug delivery vehicle
Coating of liposomes with polyethylene glycol (PEG) has proven to prolong the circulation time of liposomes in the blood stream. PEG prevents the binding of opsonins and subsequent uptake of the liposomes by mononuclear phagocytic system (MPS). The reduction in clearance of PEGylated liposomes from the circulation improve the bioavailability of the liposomes in the blood and increase the chance of liposomes being accumulated in tumor tissue by the enhanced permeability and retention effect (EPR). The aim of this study was therefore to investigate the incorporation and retention ability of PEGylated liposome formulations of the anticancer agent Camptothecin (CPT), and further try to develop an immunoliposomal formulation of CPT targeting the EGFR receptors on the surface of colorectal cancer cells. The results from the incorporation and retention studies showed that the formulation consisting of 79 % egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC), 20 % 1,2-di-oleyl-3- trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP) and 1 % PEG ...

Heat-activated liposome targeting to streptavidin-coated surfacesHeat-activated liposome targeting to streptavidin-coated surfaces
There is a great need of improved anticancer drugs and corresponding drug carriers. In particular, liposomal drug carriers with heat-activated release and targeting functions are being developed for combined hyperthermia and chemotherapy treatments of tumors. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the heat-activation of liposome targeting to biotinylated surfaces, in model experiments where streptavidin is used as a pretargeting protein. The design of the heat-activated liposomes is based on liposomes assembled in an asymmetric structure and with a defined phase transition temperature. Asymmetry between the inside and the outside of the liposome membrane was generated through the enzymatic action of phospholipase D, where lipid head groups in the outer membrane leaflet, i.e. exposed to the enzyme, were hydrolyzed. The enzymatically treated and purified liposomes did not bind to streptavidin-modified surfaces. When activation heat was applied, starting from 22 degrees C, binding of the liposomes

Ficks second law transformed: one path to cloaking in mass diffusion | Journal of The Royal Society InterfaceFicks second law transformed: one path to cloaking in mass diffusion | Journal of The Royal Society Interface
This report aims to target already-existing systems that could enable the use of cloaking concepts in order to achieve control of three-dimensional processes, using coated spheres consisting of concentric layers of homogeneous isotropic diffusivity. Various applications already implicate the use of concentric bilayered vesicles, one example being liposomes used for drug delivery [1]. Liposomes are concentric bilayered vesicles in which an aqueous volume containing a water-soluble drug is enclosed by a membranous lipid bilayer composed of natural or synthetic phospholipids. One popular type of liposomes, known as the stealth liposomes [2], are highly stable, long-circulating liposomes whereby polyethylene glycol has been used as the polymeric steric stabilizer [3]. Stealth and other liposomes use the concept of invisibility in order to hide and evade the immunosystem by coupling water-soluble polymers to the lipid heads. Therefore, the polymer part of the molecule is dissolved in the aqueous ...

Cytotoxic tumor targeting with scFv antibody-modified liposomes - Zurich Open Repository and ArchiveCytotoxic tumor targeting with scFv antibody-modified liposomes - Zurich Open Repository and Archive
Specific targeting of liposome-formulated cytotoxic drugs or antigens to receptors expressed selectively on target cells represents an effective strategy for increasing the pharmacological efficacy of the delivered molecules. We have developed a feasible technique to selectively attach antibodies and fragments thereof, but also small-mol-wt ligands such as peptides, carbohydrates, or any molecules that recognize and bind target antigens or receptors to the surface of small unilamellar liposomes. Our concept is based on the site-specific functionalization of the ligands to be attached to the liposomes by thiol groups. These thiol groups can easily be introduced to antibodies or peptides by addition of cysteines, preferably at sites that do not interfere with the receptor binding domains. Optimally, the site-specific modification is introduced at the C-terminal end of the ligand, separated by an inert spacer sequence located between the thiols and the specific part of the ligand.

Quantitative Detection of Biological Nanoparticles in Solution via Their Mediation of Colocalization of Fluorescent LiposomesQuantitative Detection of Biological Nanoparticles in Solution via Their Mediation of Colocalization of Fluorescent Liposomes
Detection of biomolecules and biological nanoparticles by means of induced aggregation of larger nanoparticles using light scattering as readout was first accomplished in the middle of the last century. Since then, technical advances together with novel nanomaterials have enabled more sophisticated readout schemes, paving the way for methods exploiting dual-probe hybridization for biomolecular or nonoparticle recognition that today can compete with established bioanalytical methods. Herein, we present a quantitative assay, with single-nanoparticle readout, utilizing receptor-containing cell-membrane mimics in the shape of approximately 100-nm lipid liposomes rather than conventional antibody-modified nanoparticles to enable detection of virus particles in solution. Specifically, the method is based on virus-mediated aggregation of differently fluorescent-labeled liposomes that contain the ganglioside GM1 receptor for the Simian Virus 40 (SV40).

pH sensitive liposomes for targeted delivery of antibiotics to localized internal bacterial infection sitespH sensitive liposomes for targeted delivery of antibiotics to localized internal bacterial infection sites
DescriptionMethicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causes a myriad of infections ranging from mild skin-infection to more serious infections affecting internal organs. A glycopeptide, Vancomycin, remains the last line of defense against MRSA. The aim of this study is to investigate whether liposomal encapsulated Vancomycin had a better antimicrobial action than free Vancomycin in terms of infection-specific targeting and circulation time. For the same, encapsulation efficiency and release kinetics of the liposomes was evaluated along with Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) of the liposomal preparations. The liposomes showcased a 12-15% encapsulation efficiency. Sustained release at pH 6.0 as compared to little to no release at pH 7.4 was demonstrated by the pH sensitive liposomes. Also, in acidic pH, an increase in efficacy was observed with a greater decrease in the MIC of the pH responsive liposomes as compared to the lower decrease in MIC of the non pH-responsive liposomes and ...

For each of the studies reviewed, the formulation of phospholipids, the cholesterol content and the percentage of polyethylene glycol conjugated lipids differed. These differences can significantly impact treatment efficacy by affecting pharmacokinetics of ETP-46321 drug release and uptake profiles into phagocytic cells [22]. However, given the limited number of studies on liposomal delivery for each natural STAT3 inhibitor and the various cancer models that rarely match between studies, it was not possible to evaluate the effect of liposome compositions on drug efficacy.

Liposomal formulations of Cyclosporin A : a biophysical approach to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics - edocLiposomal formulations of Cyclosporin A : a biophysical approach to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics - edoc
There are about 20 publications about liposomal formulations of Cyclosporin A (CyA) in the pharmaceutical and preclinical literature. Liposomal formulations were developed in order to reduce the nephrotoxicity of CyA and to increase pharmacological effects. However, conflicting results have been published as to the therapeutic properties of these formulations. This is also true for the change in pharmacokinetics and organ distribution of the liposomally encapsulated CyA as compared to conventionally formulated CyA. Using biophysical methods, it could be shown that CyA is not tightly entrapped in liposomal membranes, despite its high lipophilicity. CyA shows retardation only at high lipid concentrations in blood, following a massive injection of liposomes.This effect may diminish nephrotoxicity, as could be demonstrated by in vitro studies using a model tubule system. The results of these studies can be used to predict the formulation behavior in vivo and to optimize liposomal formulations. When ...

Much of the work on liposomal drug delivery has focused on cancer treatment because conventionally delivered cancer chemotherapy has been far from satisfactory. Major problems with conventional chemotherapy are the inability of the drug to reach the tumor site at pharmacologically active concentrations, intrinsic as well as acquired cross-resistance to multiple chemotherapeutic agents, and toxicity that contributes to many of the treatment failures.. Doxorubicin encapsulated in long-circulating, PEGylated liposomes has proven to be more effective than the free drug in several tumor models, including murine tumors and human tumor xenografts, regardless of tumor type and site of implantation (27) . In all of the experiments conducted, the liposomal preparation clearly performed better than Free-Dox, and the peak tumor drug levels obtained by liposome delivery were at least 3-fold greater. Notable differences in toxicity between free drug and liposomal drug have also been observed, including ...

A new technique for the quantification of cellular receptor-mediated endocytosis has been developed based on the analysis by flow cytometry of ligand-bearing liposomes containing the fluorochrome carboxyfluorescein. Carboxyfluorescein encapsulated at high concentrations in protein A-bearing liposomes is self-quenched. Binding and internalization of such liposomes by cells via antibodies directed towards membrane surface determinants results in the release of the liposome-encapsulated carboxyfluorescein into the cytoplasm causing an increase in cell-associated fluorescence. This increase can be quantified on a flow cytofluorometer. ...

The efficacy of a liposomal formulation for intracerebral delivery of borocaptate (BSH) to brain tumor cells has been investigated using cell culture to study BSH uptake and persistence and using tumor-bearing rats to determine BSH distribution in the brain. During a 16-hr incubation, cellular uptake of BSH solution or BSH liposomal formulation was similar. However, the cellular persistence of BSH greatly increased when BSH was present in liposome. The differences in cellular persistence for BSH solution and BSH-loaded liposomes were significant both in 12-hr and 24-hr incubation experiments (p | 0.05 and p | 0.01, respectively). For the studies involving tumor-bearing rats, BSH level in tumor tissue was significantly higher than that in normal brain tissue at 2 hr and 6 hr after intracerebral injection of BSH-loaded liposomes (p | 0.01). Our study indicated that the liposomal formulation enhanced cellular persistence of BSH in tumor cells and therefore favored the boron accumulation in the cells. With

Wiring liposomes and chloroplasts to the grid with an electronic polymer.Wiring liposomes and chloroplasts to the grid with an electronic polymer.
We present a novel thylakoid based bio-solar cell capable of generating a photoelectric current of 0.7 µA/cm2. We have introduced an electro conductive polymer, PEDOT-S, to the thylakoid membrane. PEDOT-S intervenes in the photosynthesis, captures electrons from the electron transport chain and transfers them directly across the thylakoid membrane, thus generating a current. The incorporation of the electro conductive polymer into the thylakoid membrane is therefore vital for the function of the bio-solar cell. A liposomal model system based on liposomes formed by oleic acid was used to develop and study the incorporation of PEDOT-S to fatty acid membranes. The liposomes allow for a more controllable and easily manipulated system compared to the thylakoid membrane. In the model system, PEDOT-S could successfully be incorporated to the membrane, and the developed methods were applied to the real system of thylakoid membranes. We found that a bio-compatible electrolyte and redox couple was ...

Colloidal and interfacial phenomena lie at the core of drug formulation, drug delivery, as well as drug binding and action at diseased sites, e.g., in cancer therapy. We review a class of liposome-based drug-delivery systems whose design and functional properties are intimately controlled by the stability of sub-micron structures, lipid-bilayer interfaces, and interfacially activated enzymes that can be exploited to target and deliver drugs. Moreover these drugs can themselves be special lipid molecules in the form of lipid prodrugs that both form the liposomal carrier as well as the substrate for endogenously upregulated lipases that turn the prodrugs into potent drugs precisely at the diseased site. ...

Proteins and polysaccharide components were colocalized through a liposomal delivery system. LEPS liposomal carriers were composed of DOPC/DOPG/DOGS-NTA-Ni/cholesterol/DSPE-PEG2000 at a molar ratio of 3:3:1:4:0.1 to a total lipid mass of 500 μg. After dissolving lipids in chloroform, the solution was sonicated for 1 min using a Branson 450D Sonifier (at 20% amplitude using a tapered tip) and then evaporated using a rotary evaporator to form a film. Lipids were then rehydrated with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing the polysaccharide antigens to form liposomes, which were then passed 10 to 12 times through a handheld extruder (Avanti Polar Lipids) with a pore size of 200 nm. On ice, the background liposome solution was passed twice through a filter with 50-nm pore size and replaced each time with PBS. Next, proteins were incubated with liposomes for 30 min at 4°C with surface attachment mediated via polyhistidine tag-Ni chelation. CRM197 was included in the LEPS formulations used for ...

Calcifediol-loaded liposomes for local treatment of pulmonary bacterial infections. | LJMU Research OnlineCalcifediol-loaded liposomes for local treatment of pulmonary bacterial infections. | LJMU Research Online
The influence of vitamin D3 and its metabolites calcifediol (25(OH)D) and calcitriol on immune regulation and inflammation is well described, and raises the question of potential benefit against bacterial infections. In the current study, 25(OH)D was encapsulated in liposomes to enable aerosolisation, and tested for the ability to prevent pulmonary infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Prepared 25(OH)D-loaded liposomes were nanosized and monodisperse, with a negative surface charge and a 25(OH)D entrapment efficiency of approximately 23%. Jet nebulisation of liposomes was seen to yield an aerosol suitable for tracheo-bronchial deposition. Interestingly, 25(OH)D in either liposomes or ethanolic solution had no effect on the release of the proinflammatory cytokine KC from Pseudomonas-infected murine epithelial cells (LA-4); treatment of infected, human bronchial 16-HBE cells with 25(OH)D liposomes however resulted in a significant reduction in bacterial survival. Together with the importance of ...

PEG altered the pharmacokinetic property of the DSPC/cholesterol liposomal doxorubicin by decreasing the Vss and clearance, and thereby increasing plasma AUC. These results are consistent with the notion that sterically stabilized liposome may reduce the RES uptake and enhance the longevity of liposomal doxorubicin in circulation, but above 3%, the gain in pharmacokinetic advantage was only slight. Compared with conventional liposomes, sterically stabilized liposomes have a 100-fold increase in AUC (3) . However, for the DSPC system used in this study, the AUC of liposomal doxorubicin with 6% PEG-modified lipid was only approximately twice that of liposomal doxorubicin without PEG, regardless of dosage or tumor-bearing status. Daunorubicin liposomes composed of DSPC/cholesterol without PEG also had a similar AUC (20) . The higher transition temperature and homogeneity in fatty acid of DSPC confers the higher stability to this DSPC/cholesterol liposomal system.. The movement of drugs from the ...

Molecules | Free Full-Text | trans-Double Bond-Containing Liposomes as Potential Carriers for Drug DeliveryMolecules | Free Full-Text | trans-Double Bond-Containing Liposomes as Potential Carriers for Drug Delivery
The use of liposomes has been crucial for investigations in biomimetic chemical biology as a membrane model and in medicinal chemistry for drug delivery. Liposomes are made of phospholipids whose biophysical characteristics strongly depend on the type of fatty acid moiety, where natural unsaturated lipids always have the double bond geometry in the cis configuration. The influence of lipid double bond configuration had not been considered so far with respect to the competence of liposomes in delivery. We were interested in evaluating possible changes in the molecular properties induced by the conversion of the double bond from cis to trans geometry. Here we report on the effects of the addition of trans-phospholipids supplied in different amounts to other liposome constituents (cholesterol, neutral phospholipids and cationic surfactants), on the size, ζ-potential and stability of liposomal formulations and on their ability to encapsulate two dyes such as rhodamine B and fluorescein.

Liposomes are proposed as drug delivery systems and can in principle be designed so as to cohere with specific tissue types or local environments. However, little detail is known about the exact mechanisms for drug delivery and the distributions of drug molecules inside the lipid carrier. In the current work, a coarse-grained (CG) liposome model is developed, consisting of over 2500 lipids, with varying degrees of drug loading. For the drug molecule, we chose hypericin, a natural compound proposed for use in photodynamic therapy, for which a CG model was derived and benchmarked against corresponding atomistic membrane bilayer model simulations. Liposomes with 21-84 hypericin molecules were generated and subjected to 10 microsecond simulations. Distribution of the hypericins, their orientations within the lipid bilayer, and the potential of mean force for transferring a hypericin molecule from the interior aqueous droplet through the liposome bilayer are reported herein.. ...

Synthesis of protein conjugates adsorbed on cationic liposomes surface - StrathprintsSynthesis of protein conjugates adsorbed on cationic liposomes surface - Strathprints
The well-known Toll like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonist CpG ODN has shown promising results as vaccine adjuvant in preclinical and clinical studies, however its in vivo stability and potential systemic toxicity remain a concern. In an effort to overcome these issues, different strategies have been explored including conjugation of CpG ODN with proteins or encapsulation/adsorption of CpG ODN into/onto liposomes. Although these methods have resulted in enhanced immunopotency compared to co-administration of free CpG ODN and antigen, we believe that this effect could be further improved. Here, we designed a novel delivery system of CpG ODN based on its conjugation to serve as anchor for liposomes. Thiol-maleimide chemistry was utilised to covalently ligate model protein with the CpG ODN TLR9 agonist. Due to its negative charge, the protein conjugate readily electrostatically bound cationic liposomes composed of 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC), cholesterol and ...

Two fluorophores and two spin probes were used to monitor the characteristics of membranes made from a commercial mixture of phosphatidylcholine. Resveratrol was positioned rather in the inner part of the liposome membranes causing reduction in membrane fluidity. Moreover, resveratrol induced a concentration-dependent decrease in the gel-to-liquid crystalline phase transition temperature (from 41.3 ...

  • Researchers constantly expand their testing and treatment of using liposomes to the delivery treatment of various illnesses and diseases in several forms. (ultramedsglobal.com)
  • The researchers also determined that the effect was quicker and more effective when CBD was delivered encapsulated in liposomes than when it was administered 'naked. (doggymom.com)
Methodology3
  • Here, we use a microfluidics-based methodology to form coacervates inside cell-sized (~10 µm) liposomes, allowing control over the dynamics. (nature.com)
  • Méthodologie des liposomes appliquée à la pharmacologie et à la biologie cellulaire : séminaire technologique, INSERM U. 136, Marseille, 2-8 mai 1982 = Liposome methodology in pharmacology and cell biology / publié sous la direction de Lee D. Leserman, Jacques Barbet. (who.int)
  • Liposome methodology in pharmacology and cell biology. (who.int)
Phase1
  • This coacervate-in-liposome platform provides a versatile tool to understand intracellular phase behavior, and these hybrid systems will allow engineering complex pathways to reconstitute cellular functions and facilitate bottom-up creation of synthetic cells. (nature.com)
Vitamins1
  • By encapsulating the vitamins in liposomes, which can host both water and fat soluable materials, enhanced delivery of the vitamins can be achieved. (queenstreetapothecary.com)
Drug delivery3
  • Some methods are generally used to prepare liposomes for diagnosis and drug delivery purposes [29]. (researchsquare.com)
  • Due to the similarity between liposomes and exosomes, physicochemical properties and drug delivery capabilities of the two will be compared next. (biochempeg.com)
  • A device would be connected to the head of the patient, and drug-containing liposomes - a drug delivery vehicle - will be injected into the blood stream. (epilepsy.org.nz)
Dispersion1
  • Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Palmitate) is developed through the liquid dispersion of Vitamin C into liposomes. (queenstreetapothecary.com)
Solve this issue1
  • To solve this issue, anthracyclines have been encapsulated in liposomes enabling changes to the properties of the drug vessel and allowing the active component to target specific sites. (news-medical.net)
Cancer4
  • The application of drugs encapsulated in liposomes has the potential to reduce side effects by increasing specificity for cancer cells. (news-medical.net)
  • Vincristine liposome is used to treat a type of blood cancer called Philadelphia chromosome negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). (uofmhealth.org)
  • Vincristine liposome is given after at least two other cancer treatments did not work or have stopped working. (uofmhealth.org)
  • For instance, in the treatment of cancer liposomes are used as anti-cancer agents. (ultramedsglobal.com)
Synthetic1
  • However, the limited clinical translation of PEGylated liposomes is mainly due to the protein corona formation and the subsequent modification of liposomes' synthetic identity, which affects their interactions with immune cells and blood residency. (uniroma1.it)
Mechanism2
  • The dataset contains data on aggregation and melting experiments in samples of DNA-functionalised liposomes as described in the paper "Controlling Self-Assembly Kinetics of DNA-Functionalized Liposomes Using Toehold Exchange Mechanism. (cam.ac.uk)
  • This record is pending publication in ACS Nano ("Controlling Self-Assembly Kinetics of DNA-Functionalized Liposomes Using Toehold Exchange Mechanism. (cam.ac.uk)
Treatment2
  • Fluorescently labeled liposomes were prepared for the purpose of drug treatment with liposomes. (nii.ac.jp)
  • These results suggest that liposomes encapsulated with drug may be feasible for antibody treatment of retinal vein occlusion. (nii.ac.jp)
