Barriers to liposomal gene delivery: from application site to the target
AbstractGene therapy is a therapeutic approach to deliver genetic material into cells to alter their function in entire organism. One promising form of gene delivery system (DDS) is liposomes. The success of liposome-mediated gene delivery is a multifactorial issue and well-designed liposomal systems might lead to optimized gene transfection particularly in vivo. Liposomal gene delivery systems...

متن کاملLiposomal formulation of 5-fluorocytosine in suicide gene therapy with cytosine deaminase--for colorectal cancer.
It is generally accepted that successful gene therapy depends on two major factors: tumor-specific expression of a therapeutic gene and the efficient transfer of a therapeutic gene to tumor cells. For gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT) involving Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase (CD) and 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC), several tumor-specific promoters and virus-based vectors were used. No ...
متن کاملThe role of tumor-associated macrophages in the delivery of liposomal doxorubicin to solid murine fibrosarcoma tumors.
Murine fibrosarcoma tumors arising from subcutaneous inoculation of FSa-N cells exhibit 4-fold higher tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) levels than those from the FSa-R line. These solid tumors were used to assess the role of TAMs in the accumulation of liposomal anticancer drugs. Two liposomal formulations of doxorubicin were investigated: a conventional formulation composed of distearoylphosp...
متن کاملA Study on the Electronic and Structural Properties of C12X8 (X = C, B) and Their Interaction with Glycine with Potentially Drug Delivery Vessels
In this paper, the structural properties of C20 and C12B8 fullerene interacting with glycine based onthree active sites of glycine and one C atom or one B atom in C12B8 were analyzed through thedensity functional theory. It was found out that the binding of glycine to C12B8 generated a complex.Our results were extremely relevant in order to identify the potential applications of functionalizedC...
