Uptake of liposomes containing the photoprotein obelin by rat isolated adipocytes. Adhesion, endocytosis or fusion?
1. The uptake of liposomes containing the photoprotein obelin by rat isolated adipocytes was investigated with the aim of producing liposome-cell fusion, enabling obelin to be introduced into the cytoplasm of intact cells. 2. Incubation of liposomes containing obelin with rat isolated adipocytes resulted in a time-dependent uptake of entrapped obelin by the adipocytes. The uptake by adipocytes ...
متن کاملStudies on the Entrapment of the Calcium-Activated Photoprotein Obelin and Carbonic Anhydrase in Liposomes and their Interaction with Isolated Adipocytes
protein spectrum (chromogranin A) in the adrenal vesicles. We cannot claim to have seen aromatic neurotransmitters reportedly stored in the octopus salivary gland, but it is very likely that we see choline or N-methylammonium groupings. We are struck by the constant observation of the resonances in the aromatic, class A, region. Are these neurotransmitters ? No matter how the small molecules ar...
متن کاملBladder Uptake of Liposomes after Intravesical Administration Occurs by Endocytosis
Liposomes have been used therapeutically and as a local drug delivery system in the bladder. However, the exact mechanism for the uptake of liposomes by bladder cells is unclear. In the present study, we investigated the role of endocytosis in the uptake of liposomes by cultured human UROtsa cells of urothelium and rat bladder. UROtsa cells were incubated in serum-free media with liposomes cont...
متن کاملMacrophages by Liposomes Containing Recombinant Rat Induction of Tumoricidal Activity in Isolated Rat Liver
We examined whether the macrophages in the liver, Kupffer cells, could be activated to a tumoricidal state in a similar way as has been described for other macrophage types. Kupffer cells were isolated by centrifugal elutriation of pronase-treated rat livers. Incubation with highly purified recombinant rat 7-interferon in combination with small amounts of lipopolysaccharide or muramyldipeptide ...
متن کاملDynamics of antibody- and lectin-mediated endocytosis of hapten-containing liposomes by murine macrophages.
The uptake by murine macrophages of liposomes, exhibiting one of a variety of haptenic groups on their surfaces, was greatly enhanced by the addition of an intact antibody or a lectin specific for the incorporated hapten. The uptake of untreated liposomes was slow and linear over long periods, whereas upon addition of the antibody or lectin, over 30-fold increase in the maximal rate of uptake w...
