Culture time-dependent gene expression in isolated primary cultured rat hepatocytes by transfection with the cationic liposomal vector TFL-3.
The development of a carrier system that enables the transfer of a functional exogenous gene to non- or less frequently dividing mammalian cells is essential for increasing the available options for the treatment of various diseases. The issue of whether TFL-3, a recently developed cationic liposome, can be successfully used to achieve gene expression in primary cultured rat hepatocytes was exa...
متن کاملInvolvement of macrophages in the eradication of established metastases following intravenous injection of liposomes containing macrophage activators.
Liposomes containing encapsulated lymphokines or muramyl dipeptide (MDP), when injected i.v. into C57BL/6 mice, produced significant destruction of established lung and lymph node metastases from a s.c. highly metastatic B16-BL6 melanoma. We present evidence that eradication of the metastases is mediated by the activation of host macrophages to the tumoricidal state. Results from three separate...

متن کاملAsialoganglioside enhances the efficiency of gene transfection mediated by cationic liposomes with a cationic cholesterol derivative.
We investigated the transfection efficiency mediated by asialoganglioside-containing cationic liposomes. Previously we reported that monosialoganglioside GM(1) (GM(1a)) enhanced transfection efficiency. In this study, we investigated the effects of sialic acid in gangliosides on transfection efficiency. Two mammalian culture cell lines HeLa and HepG2 were transfected with luciferase plasmids (p...
متن کاملCationic Liposomes in Different Structural Levels for Gene Delivery
Over the last few decades, as a promising strategy for the treatment of many refractory diseases, such as inherited diseases (Martin-Rendon & Blake, 2003) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) (Fanning et al., 2003), gene therapy, the objective to allow a gene to express the protein coded in the target cells and consequently to treat disease by the protein secreted from cells transfecte...
